Installation Note
Rear sight blade replacement is a straightforward field-level procedure on most adjustable sight assemblies — depress the plunger/detent, slide out the old blade, and slide in the new one. No gunsmithing required for basic blade swap, though a sight-in session at the range is recommended after any blade change.
