Have a PM-9 and want to remove the rear sight (adjustable) so I can add a EGW plate for a red dot. Now the questions:

1. Is there a certain procedure for removing the sight such as remove right to left or left to right?

2. Under the adjustable portion of the existing sight is there a set screw or other fastener that holds it in place? The sight is in a dovetail but not sure if it is just the pressure fit that holds it in place. Of course I want to know this BEFORE I start driving the sight out.

 

Thanks all!

Can’t remember which side it punches out but there is a set screw underneath so you’ll need to unscrew the elevation screw and then remove the screw underneath. Mine was pretty loose after the set screw was removed and didn’t even need a punch to remove.
