There are so many better options than trying to dremel your barrel.
Just get a clamp on front sight and be done with it....don't hack your barrel half assing it with a dremel.....BTW I own a dremel and use it ALOT and what you wanting to do IS NOT A JOB for one....
Like a lot of folks on these boards that mention a particular part.......I already have it. Now is not the time to consider a different variety. These kinds of parts aren't cheap enough to just toss.
On more careful thought and preparation; I will not dremel it. I will install the FSB straight and use the existing screw holes in the FSB to make starter holes with a 1/16" drill bit. Then I will use a larger bit to drill holes large enough (3/32" ?) for the screws to lock into.
I now really don't envision this to be as difficult as the length of this thread might lead one to believe. If I don't like the results, then I suppose there will be no harm done putting these 4 little marks on the barrel where they don't show anyway. Then I could always send the barrel in to a smith to have this FSB or a pinned style FSB installed. As I'm not planning on reselling this barrel, these minor cosmetic drillings or marks (that don't even show) don't mean anything.
Thanks for the input.
