My previous post was among those lost, so here goes again. There is no barrel pin on the C&B Remingtons; the barrel is crush fitted like a rifle barrel. I am a bit confused on the problem though. If the sight is leaning to the right as seen by the shooter, the barrel is not tightened enough, as it has right hand threads. You will have to remove the barrel and relieve it a bit at the shoulder to let it turn in a bit more.
To do so, secure a really strong vise, and a set of brass jaws. Remove the rammer and clamp the barrel in the vise about as hard as you can. Cut a piece of 2x2 to about a 2 foot length and trim one end to closely fit the cylinder hole in the frame. With the barrel clamped in the vise pointing away, insert the trimmed end into the cylinder hole and turn to the left to unscrew the frame from the barrel. It might be necessary to strike the wood hard to get things started. With the barrel out, trim the shoulder lightly, and reinstall. It should come up in alignment.
