front site adjustment
Recently purchased colt AR15. I am unable to rotate the front site, I do not have an adjustment tool.
Any suggestions?

Re: front site adjustment
There is a small pin that has to be pushed down before the sight can be turned. The GI way of doing it is with the tip of a round to push the detent down and then rotate the sight. You could probably use a pair of skinny needle nose pliers also. Head to you local surplus store they should have them (AR sight adjusters) available.
