Do they make a peep sight for these rifles with the open sights?

Yes, Williams makes the WGRS and FP series that both fit in the factory rear scope mount holes.
Check in the FAQ's.

I've also toyed with the idea of a receiver sight on my handi.  How about the height of the front sight on a standard handi rifle barrel?  If you install a peep sight, will you need to install a taller front post?  Does anyone know?

There's a sight height calculator link at Brownell's in the Peep and Firesights link in the FAQs.

I have the FP style sight of three handy barrels and they work fine with the issue front sight on all of them.
