Need 1911A1 front sight staking tool
 
I can order a new one from kings arsenal, but I thought I would see if anybody had an old one laying around in a junk pox they wanted to part with before I did.

IME, if you want to replace a 1911 front sight, that's the time to get a dovetail cut for front sights- makes life a heckuva lot easier down the road when you decide you'd like a different sight.
Having a gunsmith cut a dovetail won't cost a whole lot more than a staking tool costs, and after that, replacing front sights is easy.

Bleh, I have one on order now. I like my milspec sights they way they are (or the way they should have been before the front sight came off)

Partially because as a milspec goverment model I would also need to get the rear of the slide cut down so it would take a standard sight as well. Don't really want to let go of it for that long.
