The rear sight on my S&W Sigma 40VE is messed up. I haven't shot this gun in a while. I mainly just keep it to let my friends use at the range as I don't like it much but they like shooting the .40 S&W and I have no other guns chambered in that caliber. I also make them clean whichever guns of mine they use after a range trip. Either way I was going through the safe today and noticed the sight on this thing is way way off as seen in these pictures:
I'm guessing someone dropped it or banged it off something and hid it from me since I have them clean them after the range anyway. How do I push this thing back where it belongs. I tried squeezing it with my thumb and tapping it with a rubber mallet, neither worked and I figured I should stop before I made things worse. Does this need a gunsmith or should I be able to fix it myself?
