G&G CM16 Carbine Front Sight Won't Come Off

oliver54323 · July 27th, 2014, 22:56

So I bought a laser sight a while back, and I don't have a scope mount for it, so when I look down the sight the front sight is in the way. I looked at videos on how to take it off, and when they pop the two bottom pins out of the front sight, the pin come out extremely easy. When I tried this, they don't budge. I tried hammered at it with an allen key and a nail. I broke off the front sling mount, and bend the nail, and the pin still didn't come out. All it does is chip away at the pins. I noticed the top of the pins are rounded, so it's difficult to keep the allen key on the pin. I also noticed my pins are black like the rest of the barrel, but in the video the pins are grey. I don't have access to a punch of any kind. I don't mind breaking the sight. My dad says the sight and the barrel look like they don't come apart. Please help! On the box, the gun I have is the CM16 Carbine DST-STD C-16P-CAR-D-STD.

The front sight of the CM16 does not come off, it's part of the barrel.

Hacksaw, then file it down if you're not gonna use it anyways.
