Re: More front sight adjusters. (EXCUSE ME)
The one pictured on the left of the picture posted by Hugh looks like one that I might have a chance to try making a working version. It won't look quite like the picture but I will give it a try. In a couple of weeks I will let peole know how it goes.

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 />

Re: Pictured tool
That is a picture of a Luger barrel removal tool that I have for sale in the classifieds. I have since aquired another one and reduced the price on this one to $200.

Re: Pictured tool - correct one
Whatever gremlin was messing me up last night seems to have gone away. Here is the picture of what I made for a front sight tool. You can see where it broke but I found out that the idea works. The measurements are self evident when you look at what it does and where the barrel goes.

Re: Pictured tool - correct one
An Excellent try Steve , Its a shame that you could not have tried aluminum or brass Either would probably have made a short life tool that would have given a definite answer as to wheather your very simplt tool would have been sucessful

Re: Pictured tool - correct one
Is that the Barney Rubble flintstone model from the town of Bedrock?

Re: Pictured tool - correct one
No. But since I do lapidary work and cut gemstones, I guess I could give it a try! I had a piece of plastic countertop material from another project and decided to give it a try. It was not strong enough.
