Which way do you remove the two pins holding the A2 front sight base on a Colt? Left to right or right to left? Thanks

My Colt went from left to right. They are tapper pins. Take a caliper and measure each side of the pin. When you find the small side there's the side you drive from.

THE pins come out in the same direction they do for the receiver pins.
