How do you install the leaf spring under the rear sight?  

Thanks for your help!

it simply pushes back into the groove machined into the rear sight base. the dimple in the spring points down and locates in the divot in the top of the rear sight base.

a small hammer is usually what i use to tap the sight home in the slot.

Thanks!  I just got my rifle back from the KS AG in little pieces.  I reassembled most of it last night, but it's missing some parts and I haven't been able to put the rear sight back on yet.  

I'm not a gunsmith, but I managed to accomplish in one night what Gary Gucciano couldn't do in two years!  Maybe I should start a gunsmithing business.
