Fix It Sticks - Front Sight Tool for Glock® Pistols

Fix It Sticks Front Sight Tool for Glock® Pistols

Install or remove front sights with confidence using the Fix It Sticks Front Sight Tool for Glock® pistols. Precision machined from solid steel bar stock, this specialized 3/16-inch thin-wall hex nut driver is engineered to access the narrow front sight screw channel found on many Glock-pattern slides while providing reliable engagement and control.

An integrated magnet helps securely retain the front sight screw during installation, reducing the risk of dropped hardware and making sight changes more efficient whether you're working at the bench or in the field.

Purpose-Built for Glock® Front Sight Installation

Unlike standard nut drivers that may be too thick to fit properly, this dedicated thin-wall design is specifically engineered to reach front sight mounting screws commonly found on Glock-compatible pistols.

• 3/16-inch thin-wall hex nut driver
• Designed for front sight installation and removal
• Precision-machined from solid steel bar stock

Works with Standard 1/4-Inch Drivers

The tool is built with a standard 1/4-inch hex interface, making it compatible with Fix It Sticks tools, T-Way Wrenches, torque drivers, and other standard 1/4-inch bit drivers.

Ideal for Precision Torque Applications

For best results, Fix It Sticks recommends using this tool with its 6 inch-pound Torque Limiter, while not exceeding 10 inch-pounds of applied torque. Proper torque helps minimize the risk of damaging fasteners or sight components during installation.
