Who makes a tool for removing the rear sight from an old barrel to put it on a new one?

I have install tools from toth (the barrel population kit).  I need to get the rear sight block off the old barrel.

Thanks!


Disregard, found the forbus tool.  Ordered.

+1 for the Forbus tool.  

You can also have him build a press plate with holes to line up with the Toth tool.  

Mock up to help illustrate for someone so I dont have the brass muzzle piece in it but you get it.  Its great for those "I pushed to far" moments.

Nice, that's a good tip man.

I have a HF 12-ton press and the ak-builder collection just didn't have a way to get a RSB off till placing that order.  Now i should have everything possibly needed (hahahaha yeah right )

Just as an update it arrived a couple days ago and I got a chance to use it yesterday/today.  EXTREMELY impressed, it's SOOOO much quicker and easier than the stuff (some commercial, some...."fabricated" ) I'd been using previously.

Night and day difference, 100%.
