Radom Rear Sight Issue

[fishermankw]

Bought this re-blued Radom as a shooter, shoots great and de-cocker lever works as it should. After putting one mag through it I noticed the sights were off. Prior to being re-blued it appears too much or metal was possibly removed, any ideas to get this to stay in place? Rear site can be fairly easily removed from it’s slot.

if you take a center punch and put a dimple in the very center of the botttom of the sight blade. it will tighten it up. i start small and increase the dimple size as needed....you don't need to move a ton of material. once i get to nice and tight i throw a light dab of boiled linseed oil on the bottom of the blade to lock it down once it dries. hope it helps

I would use green or red Loctite also when installing .. the center punch trick we used on bearing races that had lost their press fit in hubs. works great.
