Hi. Just want to ask if there's an instructional step by step picture on how to adjust the front sight post and the tools needed to do it. Thanks.

This site has most of the info you need.

1)  Here is a link to the page on this site that tells you how to adjust your front and rear sights properly:
http://www.ar15.com/content/guides/sightIn/

2)  As for what you need, you can do it with the tip of a round, or if you want the official tool, it is cheap and nice to have.  You can find them sometimes in the Equipment exchange or buy them online.  There are some that are for the A1, some for the AR and some that work on both.You can find one off any search engine if you type "AR-15 A1 and A2 Front Sight Tool."  Expect to pay anywhere from $8-$12 for one, plus S&H.

Good luck and have fun!
