    Yes the 1901 sight moved to the left as elevation was increased to compensate for gyroscopic drift the the right. Interestingly, the model 1898 sight was set up for some physically impossible drift to the left that the Kragicon allegedly had. I guess in 3 years time someone figured out that wasn't real.
