Hey! maybe I was not so wrong after all. I bought an adjusting tool from Simpson simular to the one that Sabato pictured but it was not a T-bar. It was more like a screw driver. Since the one I bought was made of brass, I think that it would brake easily if too much torque was put on it. Simpson used to have one just like the one that I have that was made of the 's' word. But he ran out of them. I don't think that a stainless steal one would not break as easily as a brass one would.

I would like to find one for my 1917 artillery which has the dove tailed sight. The front sight seems to be way off and its difficult to adjust at the shooting range by using the old hammer and piece of hard wood routine. Patrick's picture is more like what I would want.
