Hello,
So I have done some quick research and found I am not alone on this. I am trying to remove the front site base on a factory built Bushmaster upper with a standard front site. The so called tapper pins, look more like rivets to me, so I didn't spend a lot of time before I gave up. Anyone know a trick or if its possible that they are rivets and not taper pins? The upper is a Patrolmen thats about 4 years old, although its never been fired.
I am trying i to install a free float rail system. Which has become an expensive and fruitless venture. After purchasing the required tools, vise, special DD wrench and a new hammer. I am sure it would have been cheaper to buy a new upper. I would gladly pay for some help. I am in the Stayton area but will travel.
