Oh, I'd email Dawson with that photo before proceeding any further. They may have sent you the wrong sight kit or have some expert insight as to why it is the way it is.MaxWyatt wrote:Thanks for the extra encouragement. The hardware store didn't have a brass punch, but I figured I have no desire to keep the original sight so.... I carefully covered the slide in masking tape and beat the phuking sight out with a hammer and a steel punch.
Now I have a different issue. The rear sight appears to be too short to clear the top of the slide. If I slip a piece of paper under the sight and over the slide, it curves enough that I am concerned. The sight fits too tight for me to pound in so I will need to buy a file small enough to work the bevels if I decide to try installing it. The only files I have that small are for guitar frets and they're the wrong shape. Well, on the bright side, at least I'm learning something.
