I've just got done improving (in my opinion) on the sight rail idea that (as Chicago would say) Mr. SkullCandy sir came up with. I've ordered the bracket from him and took a sight rail like this one: and cut it so that once the sight is mounted, it will be able to fit in a holster easily still. I will be making one attachment hole in the center of the two that are on Mr. SkullCandy sir's bracket since the rail is to narrow at the base to use the two existing holes for mounting. I then drilled a hole that lines up with the hole on the top of the T8 (for seeing if there is a ball in the chamber) and screwed a screw with a tapered head on it up from the inside of the chamber, which still allows the barrel to fit fine, to stabilize and reinforce the front of the sight mount. Here's the finished project minus the adapter and the sight that I should have within a week, along with my new paintjob....

It is a little high for my taste also, but it's the only way I have come up with to be able to use it in the holster so far. It's actually exactly the same as all the other adjustable risers and carry handle mounts used on the "rifle" type markers so it works fine, just takes a little getting used to when you hold the pistol out.
