If you look on e-bay,or maybe someplace like Sarco,you might be able to find a GI or replica rear sight that has the elevation ramp,several detents for different ranges.It might help.

If you know someone skilled with a oxy-acetylene torch or a TIG,adding a little steel then filing it back to shape is possible.Use Kraigs formula to calculate what you need.I would remove the front sight band so the barrel does not get heated

Could be a new/surplus front sight would be taller,if yours has been shortened.

Now,your original flip sight,the wingage problem can be corrected by using Kraig's formula to move the sight righ/left,so you can zero that

3 in high at 100 yd,IMO,is ideal.Lets you 6 oclock hold on a can or bullseye,and stretches the useful trajectory out a ways,maybe to 150 yds+
