If you had the right size reamer, you could do it that way....

Press fits are a reliable way of holding gears onto shafts. Getting the fit right is sort of critical, but even if you can get it within a thousandth of an inch or so you should be ok, if it's a tight enough fit.

Drills don't work too well for this.

Also the dewalt gear is IMHO too small to fit reliably on the CIM shaft, there just isn't enough meat there. Others will disagree...
