Does anyone have any recommendations for an M&P sight adjustment tool? I need to adjust the sights on a couple of M&Ps and would prefer to do the work myself. I really don't want to use a brass punch and hammer if I don't have to.

Babbit, assuming they have fixed sights...

Huh? Afraid I don't understand what you mean by "babbit" (aside from the Sinclair Lewis babbit).

Available at Brownells link

I am probably guilty of 'assumption' in this case, since we now have M&P bottom feeders as well as revolvers. The babbit metal bars work well for small tweaks on the revolvers, but not worth a darn on the autos!

The rear sights on the M&P autopistols can be very difficult to break loose sometimes, so if it was me, I'd invest in a sight pusher that would work with them. Not cheap but it will last you decades.

Thanks for the replies. The babbit bars are interesting. I'm familiar with babbit metal that is used as a bearing surface for large low temperature bearings on rotating equipment like electrical generators. The metal is so soft you can dent it with your finger nail. I never would have thought about using it as drive pin because it is so soft.

I discovered a sight pusher made by one of the guys that posts on this site. So think I'll get that one.

Care to share the info on what you selected?

Here is a link to the post in the buy, sell, & trade forum. Several people have reported that is works like it should and is about half the price of some of the "big" brands.
