SMLE windage adjustable rear sight disassembly

[fjruple]

You will fist need to drive the very small diameter pin from the windgauge wheel. It is very small, and you will need the smallest of punches. Once that is out, the wheel should come right off, along with the spring behind it. You will now be able to unscrew the shaft on the opposite side.

Best of luck!

The very, very small ittsy, bitsy hole for the pin is .040 inch in diameter. The pin itself is larger for a very tight press fit. I just pulled one off of a No 1 MKIII rear sight for put on one that has a significant number of stops on the windage wheel. The original has 4 stops total. I made one that has 16 stops total. I believe the rear sight for the No.1 MKIII is the best ramp rear sight ever put on a military rifle. I just put this one on my K98 Mauser which I assembling in .22LR using a .22LR Springfield M2 front bolt section.
