How hard would it be to remove the front sight on my Bushy and replace with a flip up?

EZ to do with the proper tools. Bushmaster's seem to give many people problems. I haven't had any problems with them yet.

2nd remove gas tube from front sight
3-push out pins that hold front sight on
4 remove old sight
5-put new sight on

3-~~push~~ HAMMER out pins that hold front sight on
4 remove old sight
5-put new sight on

Fixed, as it takes some force to get them out. If you pansy around with them, you'll mushroom them and never get them out.

Now it's correct. Remember, it's a Bushmaster.
