the small screw to remove the front view and the flash hider is messed.
he was unable to six sides
it's round
you have an alternative to drilling
This is the metric or English? I think normally metric, but
 
"...remove the front view..." The front what?
"...alternative to drilling..." Cut a slot. Assuming you can get at the screw head. Do not use a rotary tool.
 
He stripped (rounded) the allen screw that's in front of the front sight securing the retaining nut (can't recall the technical name for it right now).
Because of it's size, it will be a bugger to extract. I'm sure someone has done it though.
I'm sure English is not his first language seeing as how he is in Quebec.
 
The small set screw on your front sight could be drilled out if your careful. I would. Even better yet, remove the whole flash hider/front sight and put on a better one, a usgi or smith enterprises etc. If you need advise on removal of the flash hider I think there's a video on that somewhere on the interwebs.
 
effectively, English is not my first language
in addition to living in Quebec, I'm French :D)
the French are not known to be good at foreign language, you have not heard me speak English :D) :D)
a U.S. Customs to let go of the case after 15 minutes ok ok , go there, go there , ####ing French, understand nothing. but that's, I understood
but thank you for making an effort to try to understand me. I guess by now it should not be easy :D)
thank you again for all the information

I've made a small "easy out" tool with a cheap tringular needle file.
Just break off a but of the pointy tip. Grip with vice grips and slowly turn. The needle files are brittle so go slow turning. A spray of deep creep or other penetrating oil helps too
 
you can temper down the file by putting it in an oven for 2hrs ... that'll exchange some brittleness for toughness ... say bout 500f, or up the temp if still brittle

This is true
especially as my wife and son are Canadian

me it will be a month and a half I have my citizenship

Le set screw qui retient la mire avant doit normalement être retirée à l'aide d'une clef Allen de grosseur 1/16 de pouce. Essaie de l'enlever avec un tourne-à-gauche et une perceuse. Si tu n'est pas capable, coupe la avec un Dremel et remplace ton flash hider et ta mire avant avec un model de Smith Enterprise comme précédemment mentioner
 
use a small "easy out" or take a good quality nail and dremel it down until the nail can be lightly tapped into the allen screw.then use a vise grip to unscrew the nail.


utlise un petit " easy out" ou prend un clou et un dremmel et sable le clou assis pour rentre dans le vis allen.frappe le clou dan le vis allen avec un petit marteau.tourne avec un vise grip.

where in quebec are you?if you are close to me( north of mtl) i can help.i've removed a few.
