Replacing Rear Sight on Beretta 92F
I have a Beretta 92F (1985 - Made in Italy). The model before the slide modification that changed the model number to 92FS.
It does not have the two dot rear sight (See picture) but has a "half moon" type. I touched up the white paint. I would like to have the 2 dot rear sight as FS models have. Brownell's has the sight for $8.00. Looked on line and some folks have replaced the sight themselves without the expensive tool Beretta sells. One online video shows a person putting slide in a padded vice and tapping out the sight from left to right with a punch.
Has anyone replaced theirs Model 92 sights and if so is this a "do it yourself job" or should be left to a gunsmith? If you did it yourself what was your technique?
Thanks in advance.
