    Quite easy really.

    Although with the large aperture available for low light you might not have a need to see the rearsight with it folded down anyway.

    I’m in the process of cleaning and gluing back a chip that fell out as I took off the sight last night. The bevel was shallow but expertly level and clean, makes me now wonder if a amateur did this? If so a amateur with excellent tools? I know I can use glue to stabilize any cracking and in gluing the chip back no one will even notice any issue. Your inset was so well done and would eliminate the wood on my rifle that was damaged. That is tempting for sure given it is more factory. Thanks for your pics. You have some skills my friend! I will play with the open sights today as the aperture is now removed but a major joy of this rifle is that fascinating aperture sight. Realisticly I will always be using it, so I am not sure there is a real need to change things?
