glock sight tools around laplata

[rickyp]

I am looking to barrow glock tools around laplata. I just got a glock 19 and 23 and would like to change out the rear sight for an adjustable, if anyone has one they will let me barrow or come over and we can replace my sights. I do not want to buy the sights until i fine someone that can/ will loan me the tools

I know someone that has them in Waldorf. I should be able to borrow the tools.

No need for a glock rear sight tool. I installed my sights using this method:


For the front sight, you can pick up a 3/16 nut driver for $5.50 shipped.

I have used the punch to install rear sights and i am not a big fan. the sight tools are smoother with less chance of damage to the slide or sights. I am. Not sure of the sights i want And if i get some of the night sights, they have glass in them and it could be broken by the punch

 

[Kingjamez]

Fair enough, do what you want. I used a nylon tipped punch and there is ZERO chance of breaking anything with nylon.

whats sites are best/good for the glock 19 I am thinking about getting the Truglo TFO.

I'm a huge fan of Warren Sevigny sights. They substantially increase my ability to shoot a glock accurately.

Both of my Glocks have Warren sights and I'm going to get a set for my SIRT training pistol too.

does anyone have the factory adjustable sights?

These are the ones I am thinking about.

I just ordered some truglo sights for a Glock 26 gen 4. I am looking for someone that can help me or I can pay someone to install them. I live in Buds Creek area is anyone near me? LaPlata, Waldorf, Leonardtown would be good. Thanks!

You might try Cromwell's Firearms in Great Mills. He did mine for me.

I have decided to buy the tools to change the sights on my Glock 26. I appreciate all the offers to help me. The rear sight pusher range in prices but I found one on the Glockstore web site for $60.00. I will post how I do when I get everything. Here is a video of the pusher I am getting.

I too use a nylon punch and have never damages anything. But I will tell you, I had a Glock 17 that had a VERY stubborn rear sight. It took some time to break it free. I have heard of loktite being used to hold the sights. So maybe that's what it was. I've replaced 4 rear sights in this fashion with no damage.

YMMV

This is the site tool I pick up. It works great.

Thanks for posting that. There isn't that much of a difference from the one I posted, and this one is $20.00 cheaper.

jeez guys, just use a wooden dowel and a hammer to push old sights out and new sights in. did two glocks recently, about a minute each. just keep the dowel as low as you can so you don't shear off the sights.
