Don't think mines pinned, I'll go out have a look shortly
Your one is pressed on like mine was.
Got a screw on the other side? Mine do but I've not tried taking the sights off before
Thanks for that I'll make up a puller of some sort,Quote:

The Margolin front sights were a shrink fit. To remove then you need to disassemble the elevating system, hold the barrel in padded jaws, quickly heat the sight ring with a torch then tap off with a brass punch. The object is to heat the ring quickly to expand before the barrel heats up and expand as well. I used to have a pair of aluminium barrel blocks to hold in a vise which conducted barrel heat away. Speed is the key!
Cheers for that, the gun had one of your over barrel weights on it
