AK Adjustable Rear Sights: How Are They Removed & Installed?

Slim Customer · July 11, 2001, 05:00 PM

I've got a Krebs AK-103 and it's a pain in the butt to drift the front sight to the Left or Right with a sight adjustment tool.

Well, I bought a metal Adjustable Rear Sight from Tapco but I don't see how the original sights on the Rifle can be removed and the adjustable sights installed? How Big a Hammer and Pair of Pliers do I need?

I'm going crazy trying to figure out how to get the old sight off and an adjustable sight on...Aaaarrrggghhhh!
