Help removing olde Trijicon front from a Glock Login/Join

I've finally gotten around to working on my G19 parts gun.

The gun has factory Trijicons. It's a G3 gun purchased in like 2002 or 2003. I went to remove the front sight and it's not any sort of normal Glock front sight screw.

There's no lip, really, and no discernable screw head. The regular Glock front sight tool won't work, so far as I can tell.

Anyone know how to get this sight off?

The Trijicon fiber front I'm replacing it with has the normal Glock front sight screw, FWIW.

Maybe a photo of the screw head might help.

I have replaced many. Rip it out with pliers, install replacements with archery glue.

It's the early pressed in front sight.
Take a small punch and tap it out.
