Rem7400 problems
How the heck do I get my front sight off... The rear sight comes off fine but the front sight isnt coming off. Is it just that one screw?

Take a drift punch and carefully drive it to the side and you will see the screw.

And when you drive it out, it goes from left to right. Left/right being defined as you hold the gun to shoot it. Goes from right to left on re-installation.
