I liked the Glock specific tool I've had for years enough that I got a "universal" tool a few years ago. All the hoopla about Shield and M&P sights being hard to change was determined to be false. Mechanical advantage FTMFW I really like how the fiber optic/tritium hybrids look. They present well and are fast to acquire. Gonna try 'em out tomorrow. I actually have the yellow rear, orange front (edit: the front sight is GREEN) but you can't tell by my photography.....

Tell us more about the "universal tool" for changing sights. I have something similar to yours but it does not sit as flat as yours. I can see the benefit in that. Where are these available? Thanks!
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

I put hi viz on mine and like them. The original sights were a bit hard to get out but brass punch and small hammer and just keep tapping. I did wish I had a pusher though.

How much were those tru glo sights. One shop here has a good selection of em from fiber optic, tritium, and like the combo ones you have. See em from 65 to 115 ish depending on what they are.

I paid $85 for the combo with yellow rear, green front.
I really like the contrast. I put that the front was orange above, but that's my Ameriglos on my G27. I was having a brain fart.
I turned the lights off in the basement, and they're not as bright as Trijicon or Ameriglo in total dark, but they're a LOT better in the light.

I have a JMT sight pusher around here somewhere and it’s done several Glock and m&p sights as well as 1911’s and never balked.

Having the right tool is 90% of the battle.
I spend all my money on loose women and trapping supplies.....The rest I just waste.

Do they make an affordable pusher that will do rifles and handguns?

"M&P sights are tough to change" they said.... "They" say a lot of things don't they.

I've got the Brownell's Universal ( B&J Machine) that uses weird little inserts, but it has worked for me on Sig's and Glock's so far.

I like that, don't mess around with sights often and something like this could save damages. Thanks
