'markthenav' - Nice model 1902 carbine sight.

Like yours, mine has the 'clamping-screw' knob 'dimpled' for the .30-03 rimless cartridge head.
These screws were surplus, when the 1903 'rod-bayonet' Springfield was abandoned, (around 1905).

They were apparently used to complete and/or rebuild Krag 1902 sights.
