    a bit of grease over the area first, and use a brass hammer, and brass, plastic or other non maring driver, {flat nosed punch} to drive it back on.
    look through the hole, and youll see when its ligned up, to install the pin.
    install the pin with same punch.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    Thanks for all your help Chuck, got the front sight installed except for the pin....How much force should it take to get it through the hole and does it matter which way you put the little holder into the barrel slot?

    Here is a picture of it post stock cleaning and oiling.
