    Krag 1901 rear sight help

    I have purchased a new carbine rear sight ladder for my cut down Kragicon rifle.

    I am stuck on how to remove the slider from the exiting sight and place in on the new ladder.

    Any assistance would be most appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Can you post a photo? There's more than one Kragicon site...

    I believe that this is the Kragicon 1901 sight.

    I have no problem drifting the ladder off the base, but I am stuck getting the slider off of the ladder.

    The sight disassembles like a 1903 Springfield. You must drift out the small pin in the slide and remove the screw on the opposite side of the slide and the slide will come apart. Observe your work carefully so you can reassemble.
