does it slide back in under edges on receiver? I purchased rifled with it removed and have seen videos taking it out, and am only imagining what a chore it must be to get back in:(
 
The sight leaf or the spring under it? Haven't done the spring it self, but the leaf is dead easy. Depress the spring with a screwdriver at the muzzle end as far as you can, the tabs on the leaf slip into a channel that starts with the butt side of the "hump" goes down until you hit the screwdriver bit, remove driver and push in all the way. It will snap up into place.
