How are the old ones removed

You take the slide off ur gun there's a small hex head bolt that holds the front sight on . The back sight is dovetailed it can be taped out or glock makes a tool to remove it ... A local can Smith can probably do it for you

If you've never done it before, or never seen one done, I wouldn't attempt it. But I would say that there are two different types of front sites on Glocks. some you just pull off and some you have to unscrew the same way you screw on the new front site.

Hi not sure what gun you have, but I find it best to just take it to your local gun store and let them do it.

Need to use very small and thin socket for front site removal or buy cheap Glock front site removal tool and also buy site pusher for rear site removal, they just push put easily. You can also put a small dab of blue lock tight on front site screw before installing new site. Also note that these are Trijicon sites aka Ameriglow marketing thing , they are nice and bright green at night and white contrast ring during the day. Definitely good sites for Glock 42!

All the other answers are correct. The best answer is take the Glock to a Glock Armorer, or Gun Smith. The rear sights push into a channel and have to propertly be aligned to be accurate. Requires a Glock Rear Sight tool to remove the old sight and install and align the new one. Front sight needs a special hex wrench to remove and install.

Front sight is held in with a small screw with very thin head that wil bend or break off if not removed carefully. The rear sight pushes out to the right looking from the rear of the slide. It must go back right to left. Should be done with a sight tool. It is recomended to have your local gunsmith do it for you.Rickwww.drarmement.com

I took mine to a gun shop, but I believe there is a special tool to press out the old rear sight and press in the new one. The front sight has a tiny nut that holds it in place that can be seen from the inside of the slide.

You can take it to a local gun smith to have it done or purchase a site removal tool.

They can be removed. I found that they were easily wiped clean with a wet cloth.

Yes, they are easily removed. I can't say I'd recommend taking them off though... Why do you want to do this?

Yeah, each one is a little tray. To remove you just squeeze the two tabs on the tray and it pulls right out.

You remove the old ones and slide in the new ones. But, if the new ones are longer than the old ones, you'll have to cut the new ones to size before you slide them on.

I would think u could use a hack saw to remove them. That's what I used to cut an end piece off

Yes, you can take them off and reuse them. We have done this several times.

Yes, the old ones just pop off and the new ones pop in. Great fit and they make a great seal. Nice upgrade.

They are removable, but I dont know what you would replace them with. I dont even know how you would find ones that match.

No they don't but I was able to reuse my old ones. They are bare "BONES". :)

Hello, Thank you for your question. I do not believe these can be removed without breaking the item.

Yes they can be removed. Here is a link to the PDF manual. You can look at the assembly instructions. http://content.charbroil.com/content/Char-Broil/Knowledge/11201677%20English.pdf

These are replacement units. Therefore, you would cut the old units off and then splice in the new ones (with the tools and connectors provided).

Removed completely. They very easily slide in and out. While traveling with it you will want to remove them.

I never tried to remove I just sell them, but there should be a way to remove them, Dagmar.s Bargains

I have not had a reason to remove them yet. The adhesive seems to be a lot like double sided tape so if you heat it with a hairdryer and carefully peel it off you should be ok. A little goo-off should clean up any residue left behind.

Yes they can be removed. There is a hatch door which can be opened and shut easily. No need for anything to scoop them out because the globe can be spun to the desired position and they can easily drop out when the hatch is open.
