front sight removal/ replacement?
« on: June 04, 2010, 07:23:01 AM »
i sent my Dan Wesson to a guy and had it coated in green and black teflon not too long ago. when i got it back, it looked like the front sight was loose. how do you remove the front sight? i havent had any luck turning that little screw in the front, if it is in fact a screw. lol

thanks for the help...

It is a allen set screw but it could be stuck due to the teflon.
