Project Para, part 2: Fixing the sights

IMG-20130417-01029

This was not a triumph. I attempted to use the Brownells sight pusher tool to remove the rear sight on the ParaUSA GI Expert…and failed. The rear sight is pressed so firmly into the dovetail that it would not move even when subjected to a considerable amount of force. I’ll have to clamp it in a vice and resort to a hammer and brass punch for this one.

The score so far: Para-1, Caleb-0.
