Lithgow No1 Mk III New restoration project

[baconslayer]

Hello again, I picked up another LE, a Bubba'ed 1941 Lithgow No1 MkIII that I would like to restore. The receiver matches the barrel, but not the bolt. The rear site base and inner band are both missing, so I am attempting to remove the front sight base. The single pin seems to be missing but the sight base is not budging. I have it soaking in Kroil atm. So a good whack with a block of wood and a hammer towards the muzzle usually does the trick? I will post some pics of the project as I go.
