removing sight on Savage '99
« on: December 23, 2003, 02:01:26 AM »
Hello,
I recently bought a nice 1953 vintage '99,and would like to remove the rear sight from it's dovetail.
Do I drive it to the ejection port(my right),or to the cartridge counter(my left)?
Thank you,
Frank

To install you drive from the right (remember the old saying RIGHT ON ) to remove drive from the left side, and remember to use a brass rod so as not to damage the blueing. :D   JIM
