    I've run into the same problem. A lump of 2x4 knock some sense into the front sight. For the super stubborn there is a front sight puller available similar to a m1 carbine sight puller. It works a treat. Got mine from that online auction site. Search: 'Front sight removal tool for 1917 Enfield'
