Bennell Machine of Brooklyn, NY made an experimental sight... don't know much about it, but I examined one on a gun in Burt Kellerstedt's collection. I don't think it had any specific relationship to the T20.
Real men measure once and cut.

That was sort of all I could find was a general reference but not for this rifle. I was just wondering what it looks like as this appears to be the outer mount only.

I'm thinking since he's a noted author this comes from a book he's published?
