M&P FRONT SIGHT INSTILLATION

[M4CARBINE556]

Hey everybody, I bought some warren tactical night sights for my M&P 9mm, but I can't get the front sight to go on. I used a punch for the rear sight and to remove the old front sight, but I can't get the new front sight to budge! Like an idiot I used a little bit of blue thread locker so it wouldn't come lose, but I didn't get it all the way in, so now its stuck. Do you guys have any suggestions? Thanks

apply LIGHT heat with a torch and that should loosen up the lock tite so you can get it in the rest of the way

Agree on the light heat. It does not take much to have the heat conduct its way to where it needs to be nor does it take much to get it loose. If that fails try some PB Blaster.

Do you have the sight pusher? This removes everything.

Just use a hammer and a brass punch and smack it.

No I don't have the sight pusher, I was trying to save the money, but ill probably just buy it now.

I thought the same before I encountered the frustrations of a hammer and punch. So I bought the sight pusher.

+1.

If you shoot handguns a lot, having a sight pusher is a huge benefit.

Best $100 I've spent in a while.

I went ahead and ordered the sight pusher, when I get it should I back the sight out and file it down a little, or just force it all the way in with the sight pusher?
