I have a 1898 rifle that was cut down to carbine length and is missing a hand guard. i ordered a new replacement hand guard from an outfit in Georgia and it appears to fit. I need to remove the knurled knob on the right side of the sight (that adjusts elevation) to fit the hand guard over the sight. I have unscrewed it as far as it goes but it does not come out. Does anyone know if this is normal or if I can remove it by just unscrewing it? Does anyone have any ideas?
