IZH 46M rear sight issue

[Hearkens]

I picked up a used IZH 46m and found that the rear site elevation spring is missing or broken. The rear sight flops up and down. All else is perfect. 


Has anyone here replaced that spring or know where to get one? I looked on eBay and checked a few sites but have no fix yet.

Thanks!

so which spring is it 

i would take mine apart but not before i know what you need and then only if it were easy 

if it goes min a hole that is the spring OD, measure the hole with a toothpick for depth guess on the strength

Thank you...im struggling too see which spring it is...

i downloaded The parts diagram but the resolution is so low I can’t tell which part is which. Thanks for the link to springs.

i would guess it is missing 81 and 82 and there are 2 sets

those parts are not listed so that is a problem

you can go to Ebay and ask this seller for the parts

i will look tomorrow on mine and see if i can get some measurements

the balls are easy to find and the springs can be found but at what cost is an unknown 

i will message you

the sight uses a side bar the has a wedge tip and is spring loaded, mine was not working and will be lubed 

take the sight off by removing the grips and work on off the the gun 

note the metal used should be well protected by a gun lube, mine showed signs of rust 

and remember if you take off the sight blade the slotted screws are reverse threaded when loosing, they don't nee to be taken out just loosed and slipped out
