Hey b32dominator
Did you get any further with that part?
I am also in the process of restoring a sight and unfortunately have no idea how to remove this part without damaging it.
It can be twisted with pliers, but not pulled off.
Is there maybe a part that needs to be removed first?
BTW can someone tell me the dimensions (in metric if possible) of the steel strap?
I´m measured 0,3mm thickness and a width of 22mm, but I´m unsure because rust did its job already. Still need the length.
