Free bump.

I'd buy one if somebody came forward with a source. I've never seen such a tool.

I use a loaded round. Cheap, effective, always there. What more do you want?

y'all kidding right?  5 dolla! at Tapco

How do you use a loaded round to adjust an AK front sight?  You can use it to adjust a standard AR front sight, but AK sights are different, Troy's front sight is the AK style Some people use a flattened empty shell, but mine was so tight, it promptly returned the spent case to its old round shape

I purchased a set of Troy sights from SKD Tactical, and the sight tool was included.

I just got my Troy front from Dennys Guns and it came with the sight tool.

An empty, crimped 5.56 case will work as well for those so inclined.

This is the AR forum, right? I gave him an AR answer. He wants an AK answer, he can go to the AK forum.

sure, except the Troy sight is an AR front sight that uses an AK style sight post

So why not opt for the PRI sight?

Sorry for the hijack.

The PRI is larger and heavier and cant be adjusted with many AR sight tools.  It also does not lock up as solidly.
