Grip 10 pc Master Gunsmithing Roll Pin Tool Kit - Dual Head Mallet, Bolt Catch Pin Starter, Bolt Catch Pin Punch, Trigger Guard Roll Pin Pusher, Starter Punches, Driver Punches, Case

Hells to the yeah. Great kit to git err dun.

I have used this roll pin tool kit to build a couple AR's now, and I really like using it. The set has pretty much everything you need to install or remove roll pins from your AR. The set comes with specialty bolt catch starter and driving punches. These are designed specifically to install the bolt catch roll pin without scratching or marring the finish on your lower receiver. These two punches have a plastic/rubber coating on them and extend past the lower receiver so that there is no chance of hitting the receiver when you are hammering in the bolt catch roll pin. The trigger guard press is designed so that you press in the roll pin instead of hammering it in. This eliminates the possibility of breaking the tabs on the lower receiver and ruining it when installing the trigger guard. The trigger guard press and the bolt catch punches are alone worth the cost of the set. The set comes in a nice plastic case and each part has it's own individual slot to hold it. The instructions are included for the trigger guard press, but YouTube is better for obtaining a tutorial on how to use it. I guess all the other punches included in the set will have a use sooner or later when working on rifles or pistols, but the only ones I really needed for building my AR's were described above. All in all it was a good buy and, while it is not the name brand, it is worth the money I spent on it. Heck the name brand trigger guard installation press is only about $1.00 less than this entire set. If you are not building AR's for a living this set will do everything you need and then some. I highly recommend it.

A decent starter set for light gunsmithing work, but don’t expect pro-level quality. I have used several times so far, and the tools get the job done, though the smaller pin starter is a bit flimsy and will bend if you put too much pressure on it. The dual head mallet and punches work fine for basic projects, and the variety of pieces is handy to have around. The storage case is just a thin plastic pouch — nothing fancy — but it keeps everything together well enough. Overall, it’s an average-quality kit that’s definitely worth it for casual use or as a backup set. Not something you’d want to rely on for heavy-duty work though.

The best tool I have found for installing Trigger Guards! No more balancing the lower on a partial deck of cards and hoping it gets it right. This part works and does the job the first time, every time! HOWEVER, the best part of this kit is actually the "Bolt Catch Install Tool Kit." This is actually just two rubber-coated bolt catch pins, one a starter and one a driver. The starter actually has a hole that lets you seat the Bolt Catch pin and begin to install it into that TINY hole in the lower. Once you have begun the insertion then the Driver Pin can be used. It is still a good idea to tape off the side of the lower to prevent marring, but these really do minimize that as well. Yes, I can actually do all of the functions this kit allows, No, it is not as easy as using this kit. I can highly spending a few bucks and using this kit.

So much value in this kit… The Trigger Guard tool by itself is worth ~$30 from the original manufacturer. But in addition to that, it also comes with an assortment of relatively high quality tools for removing roll pins, and is specifically marketed/geared towards firearm maintenance. Comes in its own little plastic tool case, with everything feeling very secure when snapped in place. Rubber coating on the main roll pin removal tools for longevity. Brass and plastic heads on the hammer. Everything has a substantial weight/feel. All in all, I am very pleased so far, and will update this review if I encounter any problems during usage.

Friggen perfect! Works well with any of the American wireless hole punches I have! Not just for the evil ar-15s 😉

Came in as expected

I got this item to install a drop in trigger, and I wanted to get fancy and upgrade the trigger guard as well. This tool kit allowed me to don it all. 10/10 recommend
