HIVIZ Replacement on HIPOWER Practical

swman · February 13, 2009, 11:01 AM

I have a Browning HIPower Practical in 9mm that has HIVIZ sights on it. However, the front sight insert is coming out and I want to change sights. The sight is dovetailed in and am wondering in which direction the sights are pushed out (right to left or left to right). I assume when replacing sights, you put them in in the opposite direction.

Remove left to right, insert right to left.
