I have seen a bunch of those for sale in here and not to absurdly priced. Look at Brownells. Maybe this one for light use and not all out smithing. I had one similar to this used a couple times and then sold it. It worked fine but I wouldn't buy it if I was going to be doing a lot of different handguns.
Palmetto has a couple different ones for sale reasonable
Light use, I just 3D printed one. I spent maybe $2 on the bolt that acts as the traversing screw. If I was setting sights regularly I’d buy a commercial unit but for occasional home gamer use, close to free. I sent some to my brothers too, all of whom reported they did the trick.
Tried a couple models, this one worked the best.

As a matter of fact, I have a couple spares sitting on my desk. I know because I was playing with one earlier today while sitting in a boring meeting. If you are headed up towards Athens any time let me know, you’re welcome to have one man.
Duh, just 3D print one.
Caveat for people that 3D print. I didn’t like the handle on the link above. It was a bit too lightweight around the bolt head and the first one I tested cracked there relatively quickly so I redesigned the handle to beef it up. No problems after that, but I never posted a remix I don’t think. Didn’t much think about it at the time since reprinting a spare was so simple and I redesigned it anyway, just be aware.
