T-Gewehr Mystery

Hi Jim,

Please look at the other picture. You will see a bar below the sight tube that fits into that slot. What is the bar for?

Thanks,
Randy

I see it now, looked different when I looked before. Is the sight base all one piece machined with the barrel? Is it part of the barrel? Or is is sweated or slipped on? If it's part of the barrel, it would fit into the barrel and action vise/wrench. If the sight was slipped on perhaps to help slide it on.
