How do you guys install/uninstall sights on your MA1?

Use a sight pusher? If so which one? The old punch, hammer and vice routine?

 

I have good luck with dedicated sight pushers made by MGW. 'Got one for Sig, Glock, and XD. But I'll let you in on a secret, surprisingly few people know about it, but B&J Machine makes a "Universal Sight Tool (P500) for around a hundred bucks that works with virtually every gun out there. Midway Arms, Brownells, etc. sells it. I don't have my new MA1 yet but I am anxious to see if it too will work with the P500. I just drifted a 1911 rear sight with this handy tool and it was effortless. Stay tune. Read the reviews:

That's interesting because everyone I know who has one loves the darn thing - you just have to be careful how you line things up. I guess it depends on what gun you use it on. What was the problem in your case, just curious?

 

I think I have 3 pushers but I understand too, that if you call the manufactuer they will custom make/provide other sizes. At least that's what I heard but don't hold me to that.
