IO-4510 scope restoration - knob realignment 2

[Charles W. Morehouse]

Alex,
Find the smallest drift punch and drill a hole that size in the front of 
the knob where it will hit the thickest part of the insert.  Insert 
punch and tap the insert out.
Reposition the knob.  Fill the hole with epoxy or filler so that it 
matches the texture and paint black.  I have tried this with good results.
