I need some sort of tool to remove the front sight assembly of a Winchester P14. I am the middle of a restoration project but am stalled by the front sight assembly. I have soaked it in solvents and tried to remove it by brass hammer but no luck.
And Yes I did remove the pin on at the base of the sight.
i use a modified M1 Carbine sight puller...works like a charm
had you just taken the time, and searched this forum...you would have found the posts.. and the pics...

Where might I find one of these pullers?
Fleabay you have to grind it out a bit to fit the 17 barrel diameter.

M1 Carbine Front Sight Removal Tool Smaller Version Made in USA | eBay
Well I looked it up and they also sell 1917 Enfield Front sight removal tool Free shipping Made in USA.
The seller doesn't ship out of the country and I can't contact him.
I will probably have to make something to do the job.
I'll check out other eBay sellers for similar tools to do the job.
i have 3 of those modified for other rifles. they work great, and the price is right...from the M1 carbine, 1903, and the 1917. and angle grinder works well.
