I bumped this old post, because someone sent a PM asking about taking the 1901 sight apart.
Once, the fine pin (driven out from the rear) and screw are removed, the top plate can be taken off of the 1901 slide.
The binding-screw (or a broken shank) can be screwed-out or screwed-in.
(The 2nd attached photo shows a loose 1903 Springfield binding-screw, which has the same threads and retention as the Krag 1901 binding-screw).
