1916 ShtLE rearsight

Post by Tymberlord » Tue Jul 12, 2005 6:13 pm

Hey fellas ,

This 1916 No.1 has a rearsight with the windage adjustment thats been pinned and I'd like to get these pins out somehow .

Has anybody delt with these pins and can they be removed or is this adjuster garped for good ?

Looks like those little pins will come out and you'll be able to use the windage. It's the big single pins that all but sever the windage screw that are the problem. You'll also need the finger wheel.
