The peep is cut into a dove tail on the cocking piece and seems to require no elevation knob or dial. It clicks up and down by hand for (presumably) 100, 200 and 300 yards. There are 3 horizontal lines with click stops on the back of the sight.
This sound like the Rigby style and has been mentioned above Rob Zimmerman rusty42marlin@yahoo.com
makes a sight like the rigby. I have one on my 1908 DWM and love how it works. He is a great guy to deal with and very reasonably priced.
Would be interested in seeing your sight 375BSA as that would be a simple solution to the sighting set up for a fake Lee Speed.

While I figure out how to post pics, send me a PM and I'll send the same pics I'll post later on the forum to you. Another thing I need, that will be shown in the posted pics, is a block that was soldered to the barrel under the rear (standard) sight. This receives the forward screw attaching the fore end wood to the barrel, for those rifles with the forward sling swivel on the barrel, forward of the wood. I have a very early Lang and Hussey that was re-barreled in South Africa, it lost on re-barreling, the wood mounting boss, the forward barrel mounted sling eye and the original fish belly magazine, all to accommodate Mk VII ammunition for war service. I'd also love to find the forward sling mount and magazine!
