New front sight

[Aaronious45]

I have a new front sight on its way for my xd sub compact... How bad will it be to knock out? Any tips or tricks?

Thanks for the help! I used an air chisel since it wouldn't budge by hand. One small scratch on the sight but nothing major

How easy was it to get the new one in?

New one went in a lot easier than the old one came out! Put a ding on the side of the new one but it'll come out with a little file work and the guns getting cerecoated eventually anyway. I think a brass rod might have helped a lot but I used what I had on hand
