Which sight tool?

[icedevil]

What about that sight-tool.com one on Amazon? It has great reviews and a friend has one, he says it's pretty good.

I just bought that one and after using it once I think it is very well made. It's a solid hunk of metal that is well machined. A quality pusher is much easier to use to make fine adjustments to the sights than the punch and hammer approach. It's also available on eBay:

JMT Sight Pushers are well thought out and reasonably priced. The best, most versatile Mk V is $125

The only problem with adjusting or installing front sights with a punch is that you also have to use a magnet. So when your front sight falls off you can sweep the grass and gravel looking for your sight.

Wished I could help. I am looking for one too.
There is the MGW which is supposed to be great but seriously expensive for a Frame, two screws and a few inserts. I think you buy the inserts separately. I have seen this one and it is quality but does not come with inserts for all (most popular) gun types. If you look on eBay, there is more than a few that sell for quite a bit less.

Yes, the MGW Sight Pro is an expensive tool, you'll have to decide if it's a buy once cry once type of thing. I have it and I found it to be a high quality tool.

As for inserts (shoes), MGW makes a large number inserts, they don't come with the gun you have to buy them separately. The statement of "does not come with inserts for all (most popular) gun types - do I read that as it the shoes don't come with the tool (true) or that they don't make them for popular models (false)?

One thing this sight pusher won't work on is adjustable sights. The tool pushes on the portion of the sight that is above the slide and that would tear the sight apart. For that you'd need a tool that pushes on the sight in the dovetail or the old fashioned hammer and punch. You can get a Delrin tipped punch from Dawson Precision.

Good to know. I've only heard good things about it, but I haven't bought one.

Eyes, you explained it better. I also meant to say the shoes or inserts as I said it need to be purchased separately.
Thanks for the heads up on adjustables. I saw this tool once at a Calgun meet where it was used on a a plain Glock sight.
