There are a couple of the Lyman 'cocking-piece sights' for sale on ebay right now.

IMHO way too expensive and a basically bad idea.

I once had a 1903 Springfield that was fitted with one. 'Scary Close' to the eye and when it jumped forward it defeated good follow through.

A cheaper route is buying an extra unaltered Krag cocking-piece for better cosmetics.
