It should have the sight itself dovetailed crossways into another dove-tailed slide.

That slide is dovetailed into the base front to back.
Loosen the set-screw and drive it out of the base.
Once it is out, drive the sight out of the slider sideways.

Oh! Brass punch and a small hammer should do it.

Rcmodel: Thanks, but it was easier than that.

i just removed the 2 drift screws and the sight blade lifts out.
