Don’t Drop Another Screw on the Floor
The GUNSMITH-Series sight tool bolt and front sight tool are equipped with magnets to prevent drops. The magnet in the bolt head secures the multi-function use T-handle while installing rear sights. When installing front sights the magnetic hex bit securely holds the Glock front sight screw in place for a drop free install process.
No pads. No Springs. No Knob Tightening. Just Simple Physics.
We took the guesswork out of installing sights. The open-top design allows for fast setup and easy visual centering. The tool and bit feature a built-in measuring scale for precision windage adjustments. The locking wedge secures slides in seconds. Simply slide the non-marring brass bit into the dovetail and insert the wedge.

Sight Install Capability
The GUNSMITH-Series is the ideal solution to install XS R3D 2.0, R3D night sights and can install competitors sights. R3D rear sight dovetails use proprietary easypress dovetail features that lower the overall force needed for installation. The rear sight features a crush zone that conforms to the slide’s dovetail and a lead-in chamfer to allow the sight to travel 1/3 through the cutout before pressure is applied to the sight. R3D night sights are up to 50% easier to install than competitors. The GUNSMITH-Series is not capable of installing sights with angled side walls.
Optic / Suppressor Height Sights
The GUNSMITH-Series rear sight pusher can install optic height and suppressor height sights on Glock MOS and aftermarket optic cut slides. The optic and factory plate cover must be installed before mounting the tool on the slide.
Applying Force More Efficiently
The inline design applies force low in the dovetail and precisely in the direction the sight needs to be pushed. The low placement on the dovetail is a tried-and-true practice of gunsmiths using hammers and punches to drive sights in.
Drive Sights in with Ease
The GUNSMITH-Series drive bolt uses a black oxide 1144 stress proof steel 3.75” 5/16”- 24 bolt and a 4.25” multi-function handle. 4.25” handle offers superior leverage for installing sights. It can be used as a T-Handle for fast rotations and as a long lever when pressure builds up when passing through the center of the dovetail.
Built in Centering Scale
Note which hash mark on the brass touches the white mark on the base. Then flip the slide 180 degrees and repeat the measurement check. To achieve a proper center, the hash mark on the brass should match both sides. The scale is 1/16," and 1.5 bolt rotations equals 1/16th" of travel.

Written use and installation instructions PDF
* Maximum tool life is estimated based on installing XS R3D Night Sights in Glock OEM slides. Aftermarket slides do not mirror Glock’s exact dovetail. Users should expect to apply 50% to 75% more force on aftermarket slides that will apply more load on the tool.
