Tool Question

What type of tool do you use to remove the screw from

the front sight, I have bent just about every screwdirver

I have, and a couple that i made. I have soaked it in

breakfree for two weeks and still have no luck.

All of my impact heads are very big, and I have

had no luck finding anything small.

 

Thanks Mike

I think that the sights are "located" with the screw then soldered in place.

Some solder may have wicked into the threads of the screw or just into the

hole with the end of the screw.

At any rate I might suggest that you heat the sight up until you see the solder start

to weep out from under the sight, while keeping the sight hot try turning out the screw.
