The sights drift right to left as you look from the rear of the pistol. You need a VERY sturdy vice and you need to really wallop them. You may well bend or break a brass drift punch. Are you going to reuse the sights? If not, you can make some dremel cuts into them to relieve some stress, they may come out easier. Also, put the slide into the freezer for a few hours before you try to drive the sights out. The sights contract with the cold, making them smaller. The slide contracts as well, making the dovetail larger. We're talking quite small numbers here, maybe less than 0.0005 inch, but it just "might" be enough to make the difference.
A Sig sight pusher will work, but you have to take a little off the sides of the rear sight (dremel or file) for it to work on the rear, the stock sight is slightly too wide to fit the pusher. You have to take the rear off first to get to the front. And, the Sig pusher won't work on the front sight of a Tactical model (I have no experience with the subcompact)
Good Luck.
