eric4069 Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I am thinking about getting the MGW sight pusher for my MP9 to use for front and rear sight installation/adjustment. In order to use this do I need a vise as well or can it be used without a vise? Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CenTX Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 If you have the M&P Pro, think I read somewhere that it will not work on the Pro front sights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diehli Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 True. Only works on rears on long slide versions b/c the spring tunnel doesn't allow it to go far enough forward to engage the FS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diehli Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 No other vice needed, btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eric4069 Posted May 13, 2010 Author Share Posted May 13, 2010 Er, vise. Thanks, I have the fullsize MP9, not the pro so I should be good to go without getting a vise then. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-ManBart Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Nope, nothing else needed with the MGW. It won't do the front sight on the 5" guns, but man it works well on everything else. It does push on the front blade, which isn't ideal, but it didn't hurt the Trijicon front I put on a friends gun....worked perfectly. I've done maybe three or four sets with mine and it's simply awesome. Some of the Smith sights are really tight and you'll have to crank on it, but it'll move them without damage. Worse case, you might have to wear gloves to keep from hurting your hands, but that's extreme. I'm sure you could put it in a vise and have it work as well. I have one for Glocks and it's just as good (but obviously won't do Glock fronts). R, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
