Kavorka: If you are somewhat handy with tools (file & drill), consider making a taller front sight blade from sheet steel using the profile of your original. With a proper size punch, it is easy to drive out the front sight pin (left to right - if looking from the breech). The original blade is then just a friction fit in the base.
The higher new blade can be adjusted (filed) by trial and error to center your shot group. The original blade can easily be reinstalled. |
