Ruger will send the tool for free. just call them with the serial number
I can't be the only that finds the front sight adjustment to be absolutely ridiculous. Why not just have a dial like the rear sight?
What kind of front light is that
Short and sweet video ..those little tools are very handy!!!
I am heading to the range and was planning to use one of these tools for the first time to adjust the front sight on my AR. Before heading out I decided to search for information about how to use one of these tools. This video is exactly what I was looking for.
Thank you for the video and thank you for your service.
Peace.
I just saw a great very cheap if not free idea for this. Use a ballpoint pen w/ink refill. Remove the ink from the pen, insert the sight post into the tip of the pen case then use the ink/ball point to turn the sight post. Haven't tried it, but looks like it would work great!
@millerusaf Would you happen to know if you can use that tool to adjust aftermarket BUIS such as the "Troy BattleSight Front A2 Folding", or is it strictly for use with only the original front sight/post w/ gas block?
that utg front sight tool is a piece of junk, i just got it through the mail today and i just used it and one of the prongs just broke off
What kind of light mount is that?
Kind sir, where did you get this front sight tool? And will this work in airsoft replicas?
@juliopenny Yes I did.
I've gotta get one of those rigs.
I don't use iron sights, far sighted, but I still like to have them zeroed in for backup.
That would spin my wife into the stratosphere!!
"Insert it and twist."
That's what she said !
Just kidding, I am digging these AR videos.
I got one off of ebay for $6 bucks. It's a must have if you have a front post sight. Also most other sights, such as Magpul, use the same style of adjustment, so the tool works on all kinds of different ones.
Note that these are easy to misplace at the range…i inadvertantly threw away my first one with some spent brass!! Great tool for AR!
Looks like a handy little tool.
