If you are very, very careful, you can drill out the screw and re-use it and the nut. It is a lot easier to just break the screw though.

One tip that I use: before you remove the screw from the body of the sight, turn the screw until it is directly under the sight blade. Then ease out the screw, capturing the plunger and spring with you fingers. Do use the plastic bag to perform this operation.
