Will a standard site tool work or is there a special tool? Manufacturer Answer

The depth of the two levels (from top of the top section to the bottom edge of the lower level) in total is 2.47mm/.097". I've seen some tools not be long enough but most should work fine.

Bright tritium front sight by CJ, Verified Owner, March 2, 2020
Great quality, nice and bright, easy to install and received quickly. Installed this post in a MagPul MBUS flip up front sight. Fits and functions perfect. Very bright in a low light or dark room. Highly recommend.

I am excited to try this illuminated sight! Hopefully it will solve my low light iron sight shooting issues. Caution: This is a 5 pin FSP not a traditional 4 pin so you will have to get a 5 pin tool to install this sight.

Excellent choice by Shooter, April 3, 2020
