TreeMan Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 I have a M1 Tactical with ghost ring sites. Can anybody tell me what size the nut is that holds the front site pin? Thanks Quote
M1014 Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 Treeman,the size is 5.5mm,don't do what I did ,better use easy preasure.later man M1014 Quote
Tacman Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 Treeman, A tip if it helps. When you re-attach it, use some Loctite BLUE (non-permanent) to help it from moving. Then, when you want to remove, a tool will overcome the Loctite. Stay safe. Tacman Quote
TreeMan Posted August 19, 2003 Author Posted August 19, 2003 Where did you find a 5.5mm? I bought a 6mm wrench a few days ago guessing it would be close to the right size. 6mm is the smallest CarQuest carries. Quote
TreeMan Posted August 20, 2003 Author Posted August 20, 2003 Thanks for the help everyone. BTW M1014, What did you do? Quote
M1014 Posted August 21, 2003 Posted August 21, 2003 Leaned on it like a bad habit,stripped it,had to get a new one,sounds like Tacman has the solution,later on man M1014 Quote
TreeMan Posted August 21, 2003 Author Posted August 21, 2003 Sounds like a good excuse to upgrade to a Meprolight........LOL Quote
