Good evening. I have a Lithgowicon SMLE .22 that happens to be a JJCO inport. It appears the rear sight is not indexed correctly when compared with the front sight and the knox form flat. The rifle shoots quite a bit to the right. To get the windage correct, the front sight must be drifted to the right to the point where the sight does not fully engage the dovetail.

How difficult is it to drive out the pin in the rear sight base? If I remove the pin, I should be able to index the rear sight base, correct? What are the chances that I won't have to redrill for a new cross pin? Anyone else ever have to do the same sort of thing?

Thanks,
Tom
