[QUOTE="cjjtulsa, post: 3441391, member: 6146"] Took the 1895 out with some other rifles yesterday, and my son was shooting it. Told me that he was able to move the front sight blade with his fingers. Looking at it, the blade fits loose enough in the dovetail to be able to just move it side to side. Is there a way to correct that, or will it require a whole new front sight (dovetail too loose to repair)? I know you should have to drift these for windage. No wonder he was playing hell hitting with it; I'm sure it was changing it's own area of impact with every new burst of recoil. [/QUOTE]
