I'm not associated with this product or company, but I found a good one here. After researching lower end, universal sight pushers on amazon and eBay I ended up buying this one. Purportedly made in the U.S.A, the pusher shipped quickly and arrived quickly--which I suppose is as much a reflection of USPS, but it was nice nonetheless.
Im not one for formal reviews, but suffice it to say the pusher did exactly what it said it would. It has removable blocks for 1911, glock, Beretta, etc (defined as straight, stepped, angled, and notched), and a small elevating riser to help get a proper grip. The blocks aren't labeled, and the package did not include any directions, but the website and eBay listing had detailed instructions. I personally didn't have a problem identifying which blocks to use, but I suppose that could be a problem if someone had trouble matching shapes.
At any rate. The pusher worked great for removing and replacing glock sights. I particularly like the sighting hole in the frame to easily ensure the pushing blade (which is angle on one side and straight on the other) was aligned to the dovetail.
I bought mine off of eBay for $50, and there appears to be a similar Model for $40. It my untrained eye it looks like the base block is thicker and the outer frame is thinner on the cheaper model, but the description is the same and I can't comment authoritatively.
This is the item I bought:

This is the company website according to a sticker on the unit:
Www.sightpusher.com
This is a stock eBay photo I ran off with.
Hope that helps someone. If anyone is near Muncie and wants to use mine, feel free to shoot me a PM. It just sits there 99.9% of the time.
P.S. I typed this on a phone, bear with typos.
