ok all done
Well.. i'm very glad it's done but i'm perty sure i'm not doing it again..
First things first.. the original sight was NEVER going to come loose through normal shooting.. I could have shot nothing but +p+ stuff and that thing was not coming out.. man..
Second thing, even though folks might tell you its drop in, chances are it's not.
Due to lot's of inexperience im sure this was way more difficult then it should be.. although the sight is in centered best i could with measuring and the ever faithful calibrate MK 1 Eyeball.
this sight is never coming out again either.. it's IN there.
Someone could explain the proper method of "fitting" the base.. where do you file / sand on the sight to make it slightly less then brute force tight..
It's in.. if your a adventurous kind of person give it a whirl.. you do need a vise, a rather large hammer and a nice punch... file's and smoothing substances and some blueing.
