Hey guys,
my Shadow shoots to high (about 8" on 25m), so I want to replace the original front sight to the 6,5mm high one.

A buddy told me, he once saw a video in the net, where the removing of the Shadow front sight is shown.

Well, I didn´t find it.

Can anybody help me please?

There are a bunch of posts on the czforum about this.



Basics are drive out the roll pin (holds in the front sight and the barrel bushing), push old sight out, fit the new sight.  Once it fits all the way into the slot, take the drill bit and drill the slot needed for the pin, insert the roll pin.




I just did mine a few months ago; my front sight already had the slot in it for the roll pin so I did not have to drill.  Took me about 20 minutes of careful fitting to get it all the way in.

I don't drill the front sight after I install it.  I seat the sight, mark the contact point, then pull the sight and file the groove in the bottom to allow the roll pin to be installed. I find it much easier that way.
