Mark,
I haven't seen one like this before, either.
With the rather wide aperture and the rear sight (actually the "middle sight" / Kimme) flipped down, this might give a nice ghost ring sight.
This is not a standard accessory, and someone put a lot of thought and work into it. In that time there was a lot of experimenting, with cartridges, bullets, powder loads, locking systems, materials, and also with sights.

Thanks for the kind words.Unfortunately I'm not able to do those things I used to be able to do.For several years Kassel would have been within easy driving range of my home.
