Front Sight Adjustment Tool

Does anyone know of a source for a reproduction front sight adjustment tool?

Thanks,
Luke

Martin, I only have them for the fine tune LPO8 screw. I've seen some various types for the standard PO8 on the auction sites being advertised as originals, but no one is making a cheap repro just for ordinary use. TH

Sounds like a good project for G.T.

Luke, if you have no luck in finding what you need I will send you a loner for whatever project you might have.

George, you are a good man ! ! !

I am not ready yet, but I will get back to you when I take possession of my new 120mm barrel Finnish Luger. I have to measure the diameter of the muzzle to be certain it is the same as the standard Luger muzzle. If it is not, I suspect the tool would not work properly, and I would not want to risk damaging the tool or the barrel.

Really appreciate the offer.

Regards,
Luke

This looks like a great tool to me, but I think I would back off on the bottom screw several turns and put a large lead or copper slug in that hole above the screw so that it would be less likely to mar the finish of the bottom of the barrel...

Excellent point, John.

I have attempted to contact the manufacturer by email, but have not heard anything yet. I'll post my results if I get one.
