I got my SKS when I was in my early 20's (it has been a minute or two) and promptly slapped a muzzle break on it that forced me to replace the front sight roll pin with a longer one. It's about time I peeled that old loudener off of it, but 25ish years later I have no clue where the original pin is, if I can even get the current one out, and was curious if anybody had any advice on replacing the pin? Should I just (assuming I can get the current one back out) try to chop the roll pin that is in it and put it back? Leave it full length and put it back? What size do I need if a new one is advised? etc?
Thanks, and God Bless.
