I didn't catch this yesterday.

Need to do the same as front blade,pretty beefy, more than fills the rear notch when sighting.

What size file did you use? Needle?

I have a set of small files all different shapes. I used the flat file that measured .050" thick and just carefully went straight down the existing notch.
But if your front sight is thicker you may want to see if you can find a file that is .062" or so.

Been on the list for weeks now...thanks for the reminder.
Broke out the needle file set earlier, opened things up a bit; I guess Pedersoli liked to allow for user customization!
