    Nah. I'm used to it. He brings that up at least 3 times each match. Each time the crowd around us changes he finds a way to work it in the convo.

    FTR I did NOT attend the concert. I was chauffeur for my wife, daughter, and her friend. Wife didn't want to drive into the big city at night by herself with the kids.

    Well, it still amuses me... and the rest of our shooting buddies. VolGrad doesn't think it is as funny as the rest of us though. His attendance record is still far better than a certain other shooting buddy's who can't make it to the range because it is alternate weekend-fall new moon- shuffleboard season.

    Got my MGW the other day. Looks very robust, especially compared to my busted G-meister tool. Used it twice and it was solid, even with sights that don't have the same angle as the factory Glock sights - I was worried about this, because the documentation specifically says it's designed to work with factory sights, but no worries.

    Only thing - the way it holds the slide in place is rock-solid, but it doesn't work with a SIRT. I had to break out the hammer and punch to work on that.

    That's it. That's the one I bought and hate. The hex driver doesn't seem deep enough to actually grab the screw head. I tried using it a couple of times but went back to the GLOCK brand driver. This one is in my range bag as an emergency backup for the range.

    I use a Wiha 26547 Precision Nut Driver, Inch, 3/16 x 60mm, for the front sight. This is a tool designed for electronics assembly. As such, feel is very precise. Less than $10.00 from Amazon. I first used these to assemble the first 19 prototypes of a military comm tool. Eight hours a day for weeks at a time with a tool allows you to find all of the shortcomings. This tool passed.

    I'm a beginner Glock owner and have used the MGW tool to change my rear sight twice. I was surprised that removing the stock sight deformed the plastic, but wasn't too upset as I don't plan to reuse it. Swapping from Truglo to Trijicon (both metal), brought no surprises.

    Sourcing the MGW tool was a separate research project. Seems that MGW OEM's the tool to various customers, Ameriglo having the most hits. I found prices all over the place, and ended up buying 2-AMGGTOOL2 from CheaperThanDirt.com for $89.81 but they show it as currently being out of stock.

    This front sight tool works well.
