Does anyone know where I could buy one of the glock front sight stake tools? I bought a leo trade in with a loose fromt sight that is staked on, and has plenty of life left in the tritium. Or would you all just use a punch and hammer? Thanks

That is one old sight I have not seen a staked Glock sight in forever (excluding the plastic ones). I would use a punch myself but I would also just replace the sight with a new screw type because it will probably loosen again.

I had 2 Glock staking things.

Broke both of them trying to stake on a front sight.

Junk.

Better off just getting a new Glock front sight. They're a good bit cheaper than the staking tool (if you could actually find one now).

Can try the punch thing. A philips head screwdriver might work also. The trick is holding it tight to the slide while you hit it. But don't break the vial.

Re-read the bit about the new front sight.....
