    Drive out the pin wit the correct size punch and it will slide out.
    when replacing be sure to use the correct blade as the 1903 and the A3 are different.

      Dennis, why are you taking the front sight off? Are you replacing the sight blade?

        I'm in the middle of a restoration of a 1903a3 and need to get front site off.

          Maybe this will help - scroll down the the 8th post, it has some good detailed instructions. http://www.surplusrifleforum.com/vie...p?f=36&t=56881

            I am not positive, but I think the pin is drifted out from left to right -

              If all you need is to install the front band/bayonet lug. Just remove the sight blade. It is easier than trying to drive off the entire assembly and the bayonet lug will slide right over it.
