This may be a dupplicate posting. I have not tried to send a picture to the forum before.<br />
<br />
<br />
I made a protoype of a crude front sight adjustment tool. It was made out of Corion countertop material Everything lined up properly but the plastic snapped when I applied torque to the screw. It needs to be made of metal. Since this thread got started, I have been contacted off line by a reader who is working with a machinist to make some quality replicas. I for one am lookeing forward to getting one. I do not want to use a punch and hammer on the sight! My gun shoots about 2" left at 10 yards.<br />
<br />
<br />
A functional tool is simpicity itself after looking at all the pictures that were posted. Just a hole for the muzzle, a stop that hits between the barrel and the sight base, and a feed srew on the opposite side. A simple but effective one could be made with only a drill press, two drill bits and a thread tap. It may not look pretty but it would work. I plan to hold out for the machinist to get his made however. My curriosity is satisfied that I could make a working tool if need be.<br />
