Placement of Artillery sight

Something has puzzled me for a while....why didnt they place the rear sight for the Artillery in the back like a Navy? I'm assuming the rationale for the Artillery is for soldiers to be able to reach out at further distances than a normal pistol. The longest possible sight radius allows for better practical accuracy. If you look at it, a Navy actually has a LONGER sight radius!
