That # 2544 is the first ever N frame I've seen with a USRA 'pocket sight' and only one with a McGivern gold bead. It sure looks like a factory installation. I presume you lettered it to get the ship date. The letter invoice did mention the sight but the letter didn't either?
Also you stated it originally came with non-medallion stocks but it's shown with medallions?

2544 has had a nice refinish at some time in it's past. I do not know if the refinish was done because the sight was added or some other reason. Someone did a nice job of adding the gold to the USRA pocket sight. Roy stated in his shipping letter that there was not any information on the records or invoice with regards to the front sight.
2544 had a nice set of pre-war Magnas on it when I aquired it and I have not been able to find a good set of non-monogrammed concave checkered walnuts for sale. The gold medallion stocks came on a 1926 target that I now have, so I replaced the Magnas with them.
