Well, that version of it on the plane, set like a square not a diamond, is an ancient symbol that means the sun moving through the sky. Makes sense on an airplane.

That is cool. Thanks!

Out of curiosity, what is the height of your current front-sight combination and where does it group on target at 50 & 100 yards? Well, sad news on both of those questions. My battery has died on my digital calipers and I can't find my mechanical set. I also have not fired my Krag as of yet. :o...

My front sight.
My rear sight is a 1902 version.

Well done!! I have thought of doing the same thing.

My FIL has a walk-in safe. His safe door is hidden by a movable book case on hinges and a wheel.

Thanks guys! Just what I was asking. I was wondering how tall a complete front sight and blade were for an 1898 rifle. Perfect.

How tall is the Krag rifle sight from the bottom of the base/top of the barrel to the highest point on the blade? Mine 1898 has an aftermarket sight on the front and I would like to know how close it is. Thanks.

Nice!

I need one! LOL

Great info. Thanks!
