Which one to get?
I am looking at getting a used gun that will need sight replacement, wondering what sight-pushing tool to get? I've looked at a couple, and I want to keep it in the sub-$100 range. I don't want to spend several hundred for it. It will likely only get used a couple of times.
I know I can use simple punches, but I really want to try to keep from marring the finish, and I'm not too confident of my ability to do so without a screw-type sight replacement tool.
Also, if using one as mentioned, how do you know you have the new sights installed "mostly" right? Just use micrometers or something to measure equal distances left-to-right?
