I'm a new member but long time lurker here. Been wanting a DW for years, so when a Monson made 6" mdl. 15 Porkchop came up locally a couple months ago for a good price, I jumped on it. Unfortunately, the price reflected it's condition. It cleaned up OK, but not to the level I think it deserves. So today I stripped it apart to prep it for rust bluing. Everything went as planned except for the rear sight. For the life of me, I can't see a way to take it off! Unfortunately, it's not as simple as driving out a 1/16" pin on the 15-2. I think I see a way to remove it, but I'm not 100% sure and don't want to screw it up.

Has anyone taken one off? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Never mind - I got it figured out. Went to Numrich's site and their schematic confirmed my suspicions. I'll post a pic when it's done (if I like how it turned out, lol).
