S&W mp2.0 .40 cal still shooting left after moving rear sight far right. I gambled on an inexpensive pusher made by Washington gun works and available on Amazon. I have to say the setup was a little tedious for old hands, but this thing worked very well if you follow the directions to the letter. Rapped the holding blocks in rubber tape and oiled the dovetail and pusher threads as instructed and it worked well. Will shoot it tomorrow and see if it was enough.
Good luck. Let us know how you did.

Do you have a pic of the sight pusher or a link?

I like this one, it's spring loaded.
Set the brass end on sight, then pull the other out and let go.
Works well, have used it several times.

I have a Wyoming sight drifter also. It works pretty well, just takes some trial and error to get used to it.

Hey! I have one like Mags uses too!
I also have a Williams Sight pusher for ramp style front sights. I recently "screwed and glued" a Williams Streamlined Ramp to the barrel of my H009G, similar to what some Marlin models use I think. The sight pusher works well on a ramp style setup, but not certain about, say, barrel mount dovetail sights like my rifle originally had. Haven't tried it on the octagonal barrel of my Golden Boy .22 yet.
