Works great for turning sight with a wrench to line up the pin.This tool will work on all standard USGI type carbines, but will not work on the Universal brand carbine, the barrel is larger in diameter.

This is a copy of the original USGI tool which is described in the 1947 War Department Technical Manual:
c. TOOL, ASSEMBLING, FRONT SIGHT 41-T-3017-625 (fig. 12).
The front sight assembling tool is a hexagonal shaped driver with the
interior drilled which acts as a guide to receive the barrel. A spring
loaded plunger protrudes from the front and when the plunger is
bottomed it acts as a stop to align the hole for the front sight pin. A
cut on the upper front portion of the tool provides a bearing surface
for driving on the sight, and also makes it possible to rotate the sight on
the barrel for alignment of the key and keyway.
