It looks from the parts diagram like a piece of plastic with an interference fit to the barrel: http://www.crosman.com/airguns/service/manuals/crosman-rifles You don't really need it. Take it off like this: http://www.airgunhome.com/agforum/viewtopic.php?t=3181 You might want to consider a muzzle brake, just to hide the step on the barrel: http://muzzlemack.com/CurrentProducts.aspx https://www.airgunsofarizona.com/Beeman%20Accessories.html And don't forget to ask Santa Claus for a trigger upgrade: http://www.charliedatuna.com/GRT-III%20Trigger%20New.htm http://www.airgunsofarizona.com/ (go down to "Custom" - "GTX.") _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!   Posted: Mon Aug 03, 2009 11:57 am AirGunEric Site Admin Joined: 20 Jan 2007 Posts: 6929 Location: "Out There" The Storm XT is a relabeled Quest/B18 sold through a couple of "Big Box" retailers. The front sight can be removed with the crescent wrench technique without issues. _________________ ` I'd say "I care." But I'd be lying.

The only thing I think it could be is sliding an adjustable wrench behind the sight and smacking it with an hammer. or is the "crescent wrench technique" more subtle.
