Is ther an easy way to hold the front site in place when you're re-installing it? Mine seems to want to rotate slightly.

Are you referring to the entire front sight base? If so, I just push the taper pins in by hand, then tap them with a punch and hammer. I've never had any try to rotate on the barrel.

Maybe it was an optical illusion. When I finished tapping them into place it looks just fine........shoots just fine too.
