If you put a later model 1901 or 1902 sight on it, you will also have to change to an appropriate hand-guard. The hand-guards are more expensive than the sights.

The sights show up on ebay all the time. Original hand-guard prices are getting crazy!

A dab of Blue Lock-tite on barrel-band/swivel screw threads should solve unwanted loosening.
