    Default Front sight removal.

    Trying to get the front sight extension off my AK bullpup. From near as I can figure the front sight extension is attached via an extended version of the front sight post. However I have tried with several pairs of pliers and lube and cant budge the damned thing loose. Any ideas?

    Let it soak in penetrating oil for a day or so. Something like PB Blaster, not just plain ol WD40. Then give it another shot. If that fails, break out the propane torch and heat it up a bit.
