Patch and Heavy Duty Universal Pistol Dovetailed Rear Sight Pusher Tool

This is a review worth reading if you need a pistol sight pusher. I have 2 other highly rated sight pushers. One $100+. Changed out enough stock sights that I refused to bang on them with a hammer & delrin anymore. Upgrading to tritium night sights? You don’t want to bang in this with a hammer. Can cause permanent damage. Hammering in place not a very accurate way either. My other sight tools work ok but both have issues & some slides won’t fit quite right. If you’ve used a sight tool before you know proper holding of the slide makes a big difference. So this ATG is very well made. Good fit and finish. Seems well thought through. Example: doesn’t just hold slide from sides. Nice round screw plate on bottom so you can adjust to the height of your slide. About a 3” round plate big enough to give great bottom support. The sides screw in to hold slide. Delrin inserts so no steel contacting your slide. Holds sides very firm. The Felton inserts are not perfectly flat, so will work on slides other than perfectly flat Glock slides. Then they go a step further and provide a 4th plane of support with a top screw (also with delrin insert) that adjusts down on top of your slide. Last the heavy duty steel pusher when properly aligned will move the tightest site. You carefully set this bad boy up and it will remove and reinstall your sights. I’ve used it now on Glocks, 1911’s, CZ75 & a SIG micro 9. Worked well on all. Probably some slide out there that won’t fit, but it would be a 1%-er. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. PS: no instructions included but intuitive setup. If your buying a sight pusher you’ll figure it out. By the way it comes with a nice zippered case with urethane foam cutout to fit tool. Extra delrin protection inserts. They’ve though of almost everything. For $60 you can’t go wrong.

Good tool for the money. You don't need to spend lots of money on expensive rear sight tools. This does the job just fine. Its easy to use, holds the slide in place and removes and installs rear sights smoothly. It has 2 holes in the base and can be attached to a work bench or held in a vise. I used it just holding it on a table and changed the sights on a Glock 19 & 43 with no problem. Depending on the sights you may need a little elbow grease to get then out or in, however you can attach a ratchet wrench for more leverage if need be. Like any sight tool, you need to make sure you are lined up properly. I like the fact you can raise it up with the wheel base and lock it down from the top as well as the sides. Comes with inserts to protect the slide. Its a sturdy tool that gets the job done. I saw one video where the sights would not come out. Well you could see those sights had a set screw and the user never did loosen it and complained it didn't work properly, well DUH!!! Loosen the screw 1st Bud!!. Comes in a nice little carry case too. I say go for it, worth the price for what it does.

I needed a rear sight adjustment tool after installing a compensator on my P365. All my shots were impacting left of where I was aiming (with perfect fundamentals). This tool worked very well for my P365, although I needed to put in some force to move the rear sights.

My goal was to install Ameriglo tritium sights and it was a real torture test. First off, your sights go on in one direction and come off in one direction. After watching a few YT videos on this procedure (nothing specific to the PX4 subcompact), I came to realize that I had to figure out which direction I needed to move the sights. I determined that right is on and left is off and then it was a matter of figuring out how to make the pusher tool work with the model F variant of the PX4 SC - this is the one with the slide safety switches (one on each side of the rear of the slide. I wound up wedging one piece of 1/8" thick nylon fabric above each switch between the stabilizers on the left and right sides. This seemed to work well enough but the pusher tool could not push the sight out (or I was too afraid to keep twisting the shaft). I ended up using a full sized hammer with the edge of the 2" x 1" x 1/4" solid plastic spacer to start the sights (both front and rear). Once they were about 25% off the dovetail channel, I was able to easily push them out with the tool. The rear sight was much easier to move than the front sight and (full disclosure) I had to hammer the front tritium sight all of the way in to the slide. It was a real torture test for my slide and a real psyche test for me. The whole transplant procedure took me about 2 hours because of the care and time I took to figure out how to approach this because this was my very first time. I have no plans to ever attempt this again because I think it is too easy to destroy your sights and damage your slide. Thank God Beretta craftsmanship is way above par. If I have have the desire to upgrade my sights in the future, I will seek out a gunsmith, hands down. I do not personally believe this is a job for anyone who does not have a very high skillset, troubleshooting skills and collection of appropriate tools (you all know who you are). Review of the Pusher Tool: I am grateful for the availability of this tool but I do have a few CONs... *The side with the crank will not clear the stabilizer unless you remove the pin from it. I used an allen key of similar size so I could twist the crank freely while operating the pusher. *The "table/dial" that the slide rest on telescopes up and down as you turn it left or right - this is a great feature but it wobbles. It would have been great if it were more stable so as to ensure that the slide is level with the pusher as it sweeps across the top of slide. If the angle of the push motion is not level with the sight/dovetail channel, it can create a moment (structurally speaking) and break the sight, the pusher block or even warp the slide (if that is even possible???) For the price though, I was able to make it work well enough. * I think it is safe to say that this tool was not designed for a slide with a slide safety, let alone two of them. I would not recommend this for a pistol with one (like the Beretta PX4 model F or G).

It does the job with awful products like the m&p shield with its nearly TIG welded sights that are misaligned from the factory. I was hoping there was a way to adjust the front sights as well, but there wasn't a way to make the front part of the slide fit properly to push the sight out. There's no looseness in the threads and glides smoothly when lubricated as instructed.

Fantastic product. Easy to figure out, instructions and tips are engraved on the frame to help out. Seems like it would fit any slide. Held the slide secure and with a little bit of force, popped the sights right out. Would buy again.

TL,DR: Depending on your unit, you may need to tighten the set screw with the included Allen key in order to make the tool work (I recommend doing this before attempting use, just to be safe). My unit required a great deal of strength and several minutes to install a Trijicon HD XR rear sight, but it did the job; the way it works is simple, but the work itself is not necessarily easy. The use of this tool is simple; removing a Glock rear right is a breeze. When it comes to installing a new sight, however... This sight pusher works, but, at the very least, mine required a good deal of strength and several minutes of genuine exertion to install a Trijicon HD XR; this may have been an issue with my unit, as video reviews found elsewhere seem to imply far less effort than my tool required (it is also worth mentioning that it could simply have been the cut of my sight). The tool is not exactly precise, nor is it imprecise; rather, it's hard to gauge how much actual movement of the block is transferred to the sight, which makes fine-tuning a bit of a chore. That said, I was able to more-or-less perfectly center the sight on the barrel after spending far longer than expected pushing it just too far one way and then just too far the other until satisfied. I did experience one problem with the build of the tool itself - there is a set screw (for lack of a better term) found in the nut on the main shaft of the tool (that is, the mechanism that actually does the pushing) opposite that handle. My unit arrived with the set screw too loose, allowing the shaft to bind or break loose, depending on direction of rotation. This problem was resolved by cranking down the set screw with an unreasonable amount of force. I would recommend torquing that sucker down the moment you open the case, just to ensure you don't experience the same frustrations I did with the system either seizing or falling apart. If you're not handy/don't pick up on how tools work quickly, there are a number of decent tutorials to be found showing how the system works... which is good, as there is no documentation of any kind found with this kit. Did I need it? No, but I know that a manual is a deal breaker for some. At the end of the day, it did the job, didn't cost as much as those found on Brownells, and didn't mar the finish on my slide, so I consider this worth the money, but don't purchase expecting an easy and issue-free experience (that way, if you have one, you can be pleasantly surprised).

Me encantó el material, muy buena calidad. De las mejores herramientas que puedes tener para cambiar o ajustar tus miras.
