    Manhole cover removal

    Anyone know the correct spanner bit size needed? I have some spanner bits for S&W rear sights but would like to get the correct one by the time my gun ships so I can get rid of the plunger and put red loctite on it to keep it from coming out.

    Welcome to the forum.

    Afraid I'm not familiar with the term "manhole cover"?

    I took the Sig 1911 armorer's certification class. There is no "manhole cover," and I don't recall any spanner being mentioned as a required or optional tool to work on a Sig 1911.
