How to Replace the Rear Sight on a Puma 92

The Puma model 1892 is a working replica of the lever-action rifles of the wild West. Chiappa Firearms in Italy makes the rifle. The Puma 92 comes with either octagonal or round barrels, in four different barrel lengths and a variety of calibers. The rifle has an open notch type of rear sight. A single retention screw holds the rear sight. You can easily remove the retention screw, allowing you the option of replacing the sight.

Things You'll Need

• Small flat-head screwdriver

Instructions

1. Point the rifle in a safe direction, then use the lever to open the chamber and confirm that you rifle isn't loaded.

2. Locate the retention screw on top of the rear sight. This is the same screw you loosen when making sight adjustments. Use your small flat-head screwdriver to remove this screw and lift the rear sight and the rear sight leaf off of the barrel.

3. Position your replacement sight onto the barrel then screw the retention screw back into position, securing your new sight to the rifle.
