Hello Folks,
I have bought an adjustable Hawken rear sight from Dixie Gun works, the sight is cast and requires some sanding and finishing, but that is not the problem.
The problem is that the metal is very soft and I believe that an adjustable sight should be like a spring so I can adjust the height of it more than one time.
Anybody who knows how to heat treat it so gets hard enough but not broke when I adjust it? :hmm:
