Deltacharlie Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 I have a canik tp9sfx. The sights are just barely off. My shots consistently pull left. I spent months diagnosing the issue and came to the conclusion my sights are off. I cannot get my iron sights to budge. Even with a sight pusher. Any tips?

RJH Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Hammer and a plastic punch. And if that don't work try a brass punch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if that don't work try a brass punch Yep, lay the slide on a towel on garage floor and use hammer and punch. I use delrin sleeves from ace hardware as punches. As long as the sight does not have some type of retainment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrussell Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I always had trouble with this; found these, they work great. https://www.brownells.com/gunsmith-tools-supplies/general-gunsmith-tools/punches/dovetail-sight-punch-prod71351.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Neill Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 It seems you could widen the rear notch or thin the front sight blade to affect an adjustment. The amount to remove can be calculated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
konkapot Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Taking a different tack.... What distance are you testing at? How "off" at that distance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure which one it is. Which one do you use? I may just pick it up. I’d like to swap out my front sight while I’m at it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
