What I Like About This Product:
It works so easily! I have used other sight tools and I always had to modify things so they would work. Not this tool, it comes with everything necessary to do the job.
What I Would Change About This Product:
The only thing I add when using this tool is some blue painter’s tape, just in case it would mar the finish and I am good to go and that is not really a change to the tool.
Final Remarks:
This is a great universal rear sight pusher. It is large enough to hold the large frame semi-automatic pistols slides as well as the medium and small slides too. It works very easily, which is a nice change from other sight pushers I have used. It is much better to use a sight pusher rather than a hammer and a punch, I really recommend this one, it is the only one I use now.
