CSA side rail low optic mpunt
« on: September 29, 2020, 12:51:12 AM »
I picked up a low rise optic mount from Czechpoint for my 58. I went to install on side receiver rail and noticed it was very loose.  Instructions say to compress spring to release that little tab from bottom of nut to clamp.  Then I should be able to turn nut to tighten.  Well problem is I cant turn the nut at all.  I got finger cramps from trying to turn the nut.  Any ideas?  Would be much appreciated.  Thanks

Use pliers wrapped with something to protect teeth.
