front sight IZH Baikal 46M

[1008mod]

Hi,

Just began practicing with my air pistol again and I had decided to change the foresight to a thicker one. The problem is that when I tighten the foresight screw, it moves the sight to the right. I bought the pistol second hand and though it looks fine, I can't understand this problem.

I never had this pistol with my first 46m that I had bought brand new, I still regret selling that one.

I would be grateful for any tips.

Regards,

Dev

Grip the entire front sight with a pair of pliers ( not needle nose) and hold while tightening. If that doesn't work examine the set screw front and carefully remove any burrs on the "set" end. "Doc"

Thanks Doc, got it right finally.

All the best.
