Does anyone have a recommendation for a sight pusher that will
work on octagon barrels. I recently bought a Williams front
sight pusher from Midway and after I got it I realized that
it is for ramp style front sights. Their old catalog shows
a Bsquare pusher for dovetail sights, but they must no longer
sell it. Thanks for any suggestions.

Living up to my "nick" I'd suggest "a hammer & a brass dowel".
(I've even been known to substitute the dowel for a piece of range brass, in a pinch.)

Have you checked Brownells?  They claim to have a decent selection of gunsmithing tools...

Put barrel in padded vice.  Apply Brass Punch with a small hammer.  Use a 5mm mech pencil to put a reference mark on the sight and the barrel BEFORE you whack the sight.  Remove mark with a drop of alcohol onna swab when done.
