I bought some Ameriglo Spartans for my 92A1 while they were on sale on Beretta's website, and now I find with the shape of the slide and sights my flimsy sight pusher that usually does fine on tupperware (Glocks, M&Ps) is insufficient.

Any recommendations on gunsmiths in the Sanford/Cary/Triangle area able to put these on for a reasonable price? Or helpful forum members? I was originally planning on using Maverick in Mebane but I see they moved their shop even further away than they already were.
 
Most smiths including me, will most likely use a slide vice and brass or polymer punch and knock it out/in. And brass is a easy clean up if you hit anything other than the sight
 
@Hellquest I'll keep that in mind if I'm ever in SC. In the meantime I'm reaching out to an older acquaintance in VA who also plans on hitting it to fix the problem!
 
@Studentofthegun and I took a look at it with a MGW sight pusher and decided against it due to the lack of pushing surfaces available on the front sight. The Wheeler is super nice for striker fired guns though.
 
It was a B&J P500 sight pusher. Not much to push on with that new sight.
 
You can likely find someone local for the task but, just for info purposes, Allegheny Gun Works (Josh Rowe) near Pittsburgh is an expert Berettasmith and can do anything you’d ever need to an all metal Beretta.

Reasonably priced and quick turnaround has been my experience over the years.
