Since no one is tossing out words of wisdom, I will suggest Mother's Sovereign Remedy:

Get a big hammer. I'm sure William would lend you one.

This might help, just take it easy though.

After removing/shearing-off your rear sight you could also turn some Titanium into F15 bulkheads. :-)

First, unscrew the two outer screws on the right side of the rear sight and take off the detent piece and the fitting piece.
Then, remove the remaining center screw. Lastly, drive out the two pins from the left side of the pistol and remove the rear sight assembly. Be careful not to lose the spring that sits between the bolt housing and the rear sight assembly.
