It would be challenging to shape a pair of blocks for that.
    Did you try it with the "XDM blocks" that are slanted/angled? Thanks!

    It's no replacement for a brand specific MGW, but then again it's also $100+ cheaper and somewhat universal.
    I got one of these last summer and it worked great for my Glock, but when it came to doing my front sight on my Sig I had to make some modified blocks on a CNC mill at work. I made aluminum and nylon sets, but it required way too much torque to get the front sight out of the Sig and the nylon wasn't strong enough.

    In typical manner my bro picked one up after I was done installing my P30 sights. The XDM blocks seem to hold the P30 well. I didn't move my sights or anything, but it felt snug in there.

    A little rough around the edges but seems to work ok. I'd have gone with a finer thread on the actual pusher itself, but other than that looks serviceable.

    Thanks for the followup. I appreciate it. I'll have to order one of these. I have something similar that I eventually broke. This looks a lot tougher and I like the different shapes for the buffers.

    Thanks for the heads up and review! I'm sure a lot of us will appreciate an affordable multi-platform pusher!
