I used the Brownells tool with good results, then flipped it here for almost what I had in it.

I don't remember where, maybe at a gun show, but I bought a pair of pliers with a pointed set screw in one of the jaws that worked for me very well.
You could consider this as well. https://deeprivercustoms.com/product/plunger-tube-staking-tool/ |

When teaching Armorer Courses we have people check their plunger tubes, and generally there is at least one per class that is loose. We show several different tools for staking these.
My favorite is this one from Strobel https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1007347274?pid=137021 CY6 Greg Sullivan "Sully" SLR15 Rifles TheDefensiveEdge.com (763) 712-0123 |

Quoted:
I have a 1991 A1 on which the plunger has worked loose. I have the replacement plunger. But sure between the Mideay or Brownell's tool. This will be a one time use type thing. No gunsmiths on my area. Thank you, M @mevertsen I have the Brownells one. It fits a variety of styles. You pay the shipping and I will send it to you to borrow. |

^I have the Strobel front sight staking tool, worked very well especially since I had never done one before.
