For the staker, check Midway USA and Wilson Combat for possible tools in stock. Midway has the Strobel tool in stock, which is pretty good. good luck, GJ - Yesterday

WTB 1911 Front Sight Staker tool
Garrison Joe replied to Choctaw Kid's topic in Wild Bunch Swap and Sell
The most successful taller front sight installations on 1911s are made by milling the slide for a dovetail slot, and installing a front sight with dovetail base. Staking in a tall front sight is a VERY hard job to get solid enough that the sight will stay put. Been there, learned that the hard way. good luck, though, finding a staking tool. GJ -
Looking to try some Wild Bunch this year, but need to change my staked front sight. Brownells is out of stock for the tool. Does anyone have one they want to sell? Thanks, Choctaw Kid

It really used to be a LOT clearer. But the writers of the new rule books don’t quite understand.

May God bless you and keep you all this year!

I know painting a sight black is legal, I will need to find out if the brass bead would be, or if it would kick you into Modern.
-
Can we have brass front sights on a traditional 1911 for Wild Bunch? If not, can we scrape (to show bare metal) or paint the back of the front sight?
