Here's some pictures of my sks sight tool on a Mauser. Sorry about the poor quality of the pics. They got degraded some how and I have not bothered to fix them.

That's a topic on another forum discussing front site adjustment. It has pics of a fancy sight tool, the author allowed it cost him about $50.
Then, just this morning I was looking at my Cheaper Than Dirt catalog and saw a sks front sight tool like I'm referring to here and it's listed for $5.97. Then on that other forum a fellow posted pics of a C-clamp he'd modified to do the same thing we're talking about here. They're good pics to see how he'd modified it if that's what you're wanting to do.

Thanks Jim. How do you keep the threaded part from slipping off the sight?

"Mouser" is actually just a direct translation of "Mauser" into English. In German, especially Low German, if a Cat is a good mouser, he is referred to as 'ein gutes Mauser'.
At one point, the Mauser factory actually used a capital letter "M".... with a black pussycat sitting under it... as one of their trademarks!
Of course, it doesn't really matter in the current context: that is one seriously nice rifle, built by FN in the early 1930s on a standard 98 action. Peacetime rifle, built by one of the best manufacturers ever.... nothing at all to sneeze at. Of all the Mauser bolt rifles, this is the one that, for me, comes closest to perfection; it is likely that the 7x57 is the finest-balanced military round ever developed, as well as one of the most accurate.
Congratulations, friend! This is the one that was WORTH keeping all those years!
