Made well, slight fitment issue.
The product is made very nice. It originally did not fit the front sight. I removed the sight pin and using a round rat tail file deepened the indexing slots slightly and hit it with a little cold blue. I now fits perfectly. You really cannot take material off of the tool because the fingers must be very thin in order to fit the front sight. I am sure that there are slight manufacturing differences with different brand rifles so I don't fault the tool.
Would you recommend this?
Yes, I would recommend to a friend
Works good
Used it on old school Ar rear sight worked just fine !
Well made sight tool
This tool is primarily for the Colt Sp1, AR15, M16A1 type rifles and not the A2 variants.. is pretty easy to use and well made. Matt
Works but it is a precise fit
The first time I tried to use the A2 tool I was at the range with three pre-ban A2 style Bushmasters and couldn't get it to fit the front post. I got frustrated, gave up and used a punch. HOWEVER, on a return trip with the same Bushmasters a little more patience proved the tool does fit properly. In fact it worked just fine, it's just a more precise fit than I was expecting the first go round. I expected a sloppy fit but it is a precision fit. Works better than a punch or unfired round. It left no marks, scars or mars. Feel much better about the purchase now. Four stars simply because I think this may be a case where a little slop is needed otherwise it's a five.
Works good
Works good, adjusts the sight, and it will fit inside Brownell's AR-15 buttstock pouch cleaning kit, which is handy if you have that kit and an A2 buttstock.
Yes!finally a front site tool that works
Using another tool I could not lower my front post site any more..with this... 3 whole revolutions more! Time to go see if now my rifle isn't shooting low! I doubt it will last for long as the teeth are small..but it worked this time, hopefully it will have a long life.
A2 sight wrench
Just used this wrench to set the sights on my Magpul BIUS. Worked great. The teeth seems a little thin, but still a value at this price.
ok tool but great customer service
so the first time i used it one of the teeth broke off and the rest got bent up real bad. i emailed Brownells and they let me exchange it for a new one. [...] im not sure if my sights are a little tight or the tool is a little weak. my new one works great, i just have to be gentle with it.
