[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Sight Extension Removal

Hey All!

I have a MAK 90 bullpup I am trying to put right. All the parts are here and I'm ready to fix my rifle but
I'm stuck on the front sight extension. How do I remove that? I have removed the sight post but it's
still stuck tight.

Sorry, my camera died. Sadly, this is the best I can do atm.

hmm, no idea. Never played with one of those before. For the life of me I can't think of a way to install that other than the site post, which you said you have already removed. I wonder if they used super glue or something on it.

ETA:

1'st post has a PDF of the instruction manual you can download.

Thanks for trying! Looks like I'm gonna get a replacement FSB. I hear it's gonna be a blast getting those pins out.

some are hard, some are easy. Go buy a decent punch set from Home Depot or Lowes.

There was an allen head down in the fsb holding the extension in place. I couldn't tell that's what it was so I just started trying different sizes till I found one that fit.
The offending part is gone!

Glad you got it off.

I'm glad too, because I never did figure out if he was trying to use a kit to make a bullpup or if he has a bullpup he's trying to take apart for some reason. Is a 'front sight extension' the new part that raises the sight post to the level needed? Why are you removing it?
