Interesting idea but limited in use.(08/06/2015)
I thought the idea of a brass punch might be cool to prevent marring up tight dovetail sights. Well, it works pretty good on sights that aren't too tight. That's the sweet spot. But it will leave brass marks the tighter fit the sights are. For sights like the Shield, don't bother. I ended up compressing the punch a bit and had to sand it back down on the grinder to be usable. Use a steel punch instead and give it a couple of solid whacks instead. The other minor issue is that the "small" isn't small enough for a lot of sights.

It worked well on the few guns where we found it was applicable. If one's clientele is limited to these and the guns are willing to give up their death grip on their sights by all means .....
Don't waste your time or money.(24/01/2018)
Too large for front sight cut on 1911; had to grind it down to fit and then corner of the punch broke off. Good idea that doesn't work.

I wish it would work its to large for any front site dove tail I own. You need to modify it to fit smaller sights. Whats the point.
