Sight Pusher Tool
Ben:
I'm finally getting around to replacing the sights on my G45 ( with Ameriglo Spartans, just ordered today). I've actually never replaced pistol sights before and have seen recommendations for using a sight pusher vs a hammer and punch.
These tools seem to run from $20-$80. I don't have plans for doing lots of sight swaps, but see myself doing some more in the future. I don't know that I want to shell out $80 for a little used tool, but I can see spending $20-$40. Does anyone have experience with sight pushers? Would the lower end still be worthwhile to buy, or are they useless junk?

Definitely a buy once, cry once kind of tool

Yep, heard of people breaking the cheap ones on Glocks far too often.

I have two. One I bought on the recommendation of someone on another forum from SightPusher.com. I think it was about $60. Bleh.
It works, but is hard to use, looks like it was thrown together in a garage, requires tools, and beats up the sight when using it. If you want it let me know and I’ll send it to you.
I ended up getting one of these last year:

I like it much better. If you have any specific questions let me know.

Look at the one you like and make one. And yes, the little glass vials don't like hammers.
