LYMAN - Brass Tapper & Drift Punch w/Interchangeable Heads

It has good balance to it and the idea of putting the drift punch is good to.

Great product, good design & nice quality. Not a con, just FYI... the item shipped is very similar but does not look like the image on the website. Mine arrived missing the punch, it looks like it fell out before shipping. Customer service was outstanding, they sent a replacement & i received it in a couple days. 5 stars for Customer service!!!

Great little hammer for sightwork and other non marring jobs. Smaller than I thought it would be but still quite useful. The design with the three heads and punch storage is good. Only complaint is that the heads come loose with use. A little blue locktite ought to help.

It's a neat little hammer and punch kit. You can keep the brass head and steel head in the hammer for a bit more power, or remove them both and use the plastic head only for delicate tasks. For lite use, such as driving pins, this kit is perfect. The punch fits inside the hollow handle. Think: "lite use" with this kit. I used it to remove and install dovetail sights (both front and rear) on several older and newer .22LR rifles. A couple of my front sights were really tough to remove, but I stayed at it. The job really deformed the head of the brass punch. It almost looks like a mushroomed bullet that I recovered from an Elk. I originally bought it to keep in my travel gear, with the intent of using it to drift sights at the range. It might work for that purpose, provided the sights are not really tight. But, as I stated above, it's really not up to that task. I've ordered a stronger (?) drift punch, and hope it holds up to sight installation. I'm going to try to file this deformed punch flat. Good luck.
