Ok, have punch and hammer but no vise at the range. Is there a simple holding fixture or trick  that can be used to hold the slide while tapping the sight into proper alignment? Do not want to make mulitiple trips home, tap the sight over, and go back to the range to test.

I normally ensure the gun is empty, lay it one the wooden table & tap away with the brass drift & hammer.

It's not cheap but it's way slicker than a punch.
