Hammer

Drift punch

1/8 roll pin punch

3/32 roll pin punch

1/16 allen wrench

 

[Guest]

What is the 1/8 and 3/32 roll pin punch for? I know the wrench is to adjust windage

 

[YukonGlocker]

The roll pin punches are to remove the roll pins and other pins in the pistol.

The 1/16 allen is not to adjust windage. The drift punch is used to adjust windage.

Okay, I've tried all my hexagon keys and star keys and NONE of them can fit in the slot to change the windage.



What size drift punch do you use to change the windage and where do you get it? Not Home Depot, because I looked there. And what is a drift punch?

Isn't the 1/16" allen wrench used to loosen the set screw on the rear sight? Then you use the drift punch to "bump" the sight laterally to adjust windage?

 

[YukonGlocker]

Correct.



I installed factory night sights on another M&P, and that set screw was a different size. I don't remember what it was.

 

[rjhauser]

i believe it was 2mm, although I may be mistaken.



i only remember because I had to go buy one...thank you harbor freight

My 1/16" allen wrench won't fit into the windage screw because I've busted the windage screw trying different size wrenches on it. Can I send it back to S&W warranty? I can't get that screw out with even 1/16" now.

 

[YukonGlocker]

What do you mean by "busted"???

Did you strip it out?

 

[Guest]

I'm not familiar with ther term strip it out, so I just used busted.



When you are unable to turn the windage screw anymore because the 1/16" allen slot is busted as in it is more circular than hexagonal, and the wrench keeps slipping through.

Somebody is starting to sound like an Airsofter behind the keyboard?????????????

 

[YukonGlocker]

Eddo36, I would take your gun to a gunsmith and let him fix it or adjust it if need be.

The allen screw on the rear sight has to be a standard measurement. It is smaller than a 2mm and larger than a 1.5mm. Now I just have to find a small enough allen set in standard sizes.

The armorers manual says to use a 1/16" allen wrench.

 

[mpbond]

Where can you get an armorer's manual for the M&P?

 

[choochboost]

I got it when I took the armorers course.

 

[mpbond]

Is there any other way?
