Sight adjustment/removal tool for 1076
Have looked everywhere and cannot find a sight adjustment/removal tool that is either made for, or will fit, S&W model 1076. Any help will be very much appreciated.
Thanks to all,
Estimator

I have used a brass drift and hammer to good effect in the past.

I have just such a tool for sale in the classifieds. What you need is the Mk lll model. You may be able to use a brass punch, but every gen 3 rear sight I've removed has been extreamly tight.

You asked about replacement sights in another thread. Did you decide on one? You didn't say in that thread.

Email the maker of this one through eBay. I think the $38.50 one will fit/work (he told me the $10 cheaper one won't). Both are more sturdily built than his competition.

Wasn't there a forum member who was making/selling a sight pusher?

That would be me. Actually, the tool was originally designed for gen3 Smiths.
