Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns Removing sight on blackhawk?

I have a stainless Ruger super blackhawk, 1987 7-1/2". I have a red dot on it and want to remove the front sight. Anyone have any idea how to get it off. I want to remove the entire sight not just the blade. The blade is pinned but the base has no visable screws or pins. Solder mabey? Thanks in advance. Stubert

Stubert, I put my 2 cents on your other posting regarding your SBH....BTW, where is Hopewell Junction?

Hopewell Jct. is 70 miles north of NYC , 5 miles east of the Hudson river. Dutchess county.

No wonder I didn't know where it was...never been thru there on the east side of the river.

I was at Sienna College for Boys State for a week back in my highschool days though, that's in the general area isn't it? On the west side of the river?
