1903 Springfield rear sight removal.

Replacing the rear sight on my 1903 Springfield. Just the sight itself, not the base or barrel collar. Do I need to do anything besides punching out the pin at the rear? I want to get it right the first time, and not go beating on anything that doesn't require it. Thanks.[:)]


As you can see, the previous owner wasn't especially kind to the original rear sight. Not much left of the leaf.[B)]

The sight to replace it:

An unarmed man can only flee from evil, and evil is not overcome by fleeing from it.
