There are different models from different manufacturers. They're very pricey. The problem was likely they couldn't put the slide in backwards to keep the highest part of your sight from interfering with it yet still being able to push on the right place of the sight where the bezel is... I'd have tried to use the tool backwards than normally recommended and see if I could get enough hold to push where the bezel is...
I have both MGW tools, the universal and the Glock specific. They'd need only dismount the optic to change rears. The remount the optic. Surprised they didn't but really surprised they didn’t put that option to you.
This is exactly what they did. You explained it better than I could. I think the optic may have got in the way and they were just busy and didn't want to deal with it honestly.
Id love to pay someone to do it correctly.
They were busy. I think the few bucks they would have gotten off me wasn't worth it because 9fnhow busy it was.
Lost my business tho. Ignorance or Slacking. Either way I know they could have done it. I've seen vids since with HIGHER sights same.tool.
Has nothing to do with the sight. They just didnt want to take off the red dot. I work at MGW and make the pusher. If you were in the Augusta area, I would have done it for you.
Thats an older one and the early shoes also, the shoes are all numbered now. I work at MGW and make the pusher tools.
will the newer shoes fit the older model like mine?
Yes sir. The shoes are all the same, we just changed the letters to number because some of the shoes fit multiple guns.
Ever thought they might have been busy as you stated or understaffed like most people or the guy that you were dealing with is new and has maybe installed a few sets of sights, but nothing with a optic and did not want to mess up your pistol. I have seen that shop go out of their way several times to make customers happy and I know for a fact that several guys there carry pistols with optics. Remove your optic and take it back and I am sure they will square it away.
Maybe a rant but I am sure that there are a lot of members on here that have heard gun shops or gunsmiths say they could install items and when it was received back it looked like a three year old with a fisher price tool set worked on it.
