Removal or Rear Sight

[kyle]

I'm removed the two adjusting screws on either side of the rear sight. Any tricks now for removing the rear sight from the lower? Thanks!

Hey, just give it a couple of good wacks with a plastic mallet or a wooden mallet and it should come right out of the dovetail.

Watch for the spring and make sure you don't loose the retention pin!

These are easy to loose when 'whacking' stuck components apart.
