Ghetto Sight Tool Press

[cid`]

figured i'd post this, since i came up with easy way to install sights with existing tools, instead of buying a press tool that i'd use once..


tools:

- work bench
- 3 x c-clamps
- sturdy scrap piece of wood
- scrap or paper or whatever to not ding your slide

may take a few times of adjustment till you get it centered, but whats a few minutes versus a few bucks..

happy hunting

means to an end, if getting their involves taking unorthodox measures, more power to you! Glad it worked, Ghetto and all

Depends on which gun you are doing it to. If you are doing it to an XD i'd prefer taking it to a gunsmith.

I've just used an delrin tipped punch for both of my glocks

Put a heal block under the piece of wood, keep it parallel to the bench, might work a bit easier.. But great idea.

Makes it work...cool.

By the title I thought you were going to show a tool that puts the sights on the side of the slide
