Ya ever get a loose dovetail like that again ....you can " dimple " the bottom of the dovetail up with a punch or nail set ... Tightens it right back up .... Good shootin !I replaced the sear spring on an old CVA mountain rifle that broke on me last week while attempting to shoot it.. At the same session I was trying to get a old navy arms Kentucky rifle sighted in and was just about there when the rear sight fell off. Someone did a poor job at filing the dovetail on it. I replaced the sight with a new one. I bought these in a small collection and finally getting around to using them. Both .45's are from the mid 1970's. Maybe if time allows I can shoot them today.
