Tight Sight Pin

[jackowens]

Dear Friends,

I bought an artillery Luger that has a misaligned rear sight that I'm exploring for possible realignment, but in trying to disassemble it I find that the pin that the sight hinges on for elevation is quite snug and I've been unable to tap it out with a brass punch.

What's the best (safest) way to do that without damage or causing possible further misalignment? To start, it appears that the pin is to be punched out from the left side.

I was wondering if there is a threaded tool that could press it out.

Regards to all from,
