How to get the front site off-Part two

I'm trying to sporterize an old Mossine Nagant(sp)and the front site is welded on. I think it may also be the bayonet lug,it is a compleate ring around the bbl. I was afraid to heat it but that may be the answer. I have stopped this project and have not seen the gun in a year because of this obsticle, but the other post brought it to mind. I also thought maybe it would have to be turned on a lathe, any body like to venture an oppinion?(I mean on how to get it off,I can already guess some of the oppinions), I'v got a few bucks in the stock and the turned down bolt but the darned thing looks ridiculous with that thing on the bbl.It would be nice to be able to shoot it.
Thanks in advance for any sugestions.

Thank you so kindly for the reply. And apparently then this much heat will not harm the bbl to the point that it would not fire period ammo safely? I'll dig that gun out and give it a try.Thanks again.
