C.O.R.E 9mm Pistol Rear Sight Removal?

JLLNet · #1 03-08-2016, 03:58 PM

I'm wondering if anyone has been able to remove the rear iron sight? and how?

There is a screw on top of the sight which I was able to remove with the Allen key that came in the kit, but the sight though it seems to be detached, but I can't remove it.

Dovetails are a friction fit. You need a sight pusher or hammer, non-marring punch, and vise to drive it out after removing the screw. Remove and replace from the right side.

Remember on M&Ps, the striker block is accessed with the rear sight removed. Be careful so that you're not chasing parts. Look on YouTube for M&P sight removal. There's some decent videos.

Not on a Core, the striker block is under the red dot cutout. (under the little cover in the pic)
