Review on πŸ”§ WireGear Universal Rear Sight Pusher Tool - Heavy-Duty Construction for Semi-Auto Pistol Slides by Kobby Fairchild

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Work not finished

I used this tool on my brand new S&W M&P 2.0 .40 cal and struggled with it for two days. As previously mentioned, removing some rear sights may require a little more finesse and patience. On the second day I tried PB Penetrating Oil and let it sit for a few hours. What I found, however, is that even though the slider was correctly raised, aligned, and all clamps in the pusher tool were tightened to the maximum, I could still feel some movement of the slider - it didn't sit flat on the base when cranked. While I was able to successfully break the initial seal and move the scope slightly from left to right, this cranking motion prevented me from removing the scope entirely, as the slider was slightly raised on the left and lowered slightly on the left. right side just enough to hit the pusher and prevent it from moving fully. I ended up using the tried and true method of tapping and hammering to avoid damaging my slider to get the job done.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
