Selected User Reviews For Real Avid Bolt Catch Punch Set, Stainless
The idea of a single-band performance usually does not appeal to me I installed my bolt catch using tools that are typically devoted to more general uses, but this punch set was easy to use. like the way that the one pin is recessed about a millimeter on the end so that the pin stays in place and is aligned as you begin to drive it. Another feature I enjoy is the fact that one side of the punch is "shaved off" allowing for better When I work on my receiver, I still cover the sides with a mask, but I think the improved alignment will minimize damage to There's no question that this punch set is worth the price. Secondary benefits include lower blood pressure, frustration, and cursing.
Starting it with the start punch uses a magnetic field to hold the roll pin. When you finish driving the pin into the finish punch, it has a little nipple that keeps the punch center snugly on the pin center. There is a flat surface pressed on one side of the punch in order to fit tightly on the lower side. tape to protect the lower, and take your time and you will be able to finish the project in no time.
My only reason for buying it was because I wasn't able to buy the roll pin wizard since I already had my buffer tube assembled and secured and the wrench I use was in return at a friend's house. I think you need a vise or extra hands to keep the lower steady when you use the punches and hammer otherwise you end up nicking the receiver next to the bolt catch, which is what I did by accident even though I was going slowly. Honestly, the roll pin wizard seems to be a better product in the event that you have yet to install a pivot pin. Otherwise, this is a useful tool for installing the bolt catch and pin, which is the most difficult part of a lower.
I think it works okay, but I prefer a slightly smaller diameter with a rubber overcoat to protect the finish of the lower housing. My old ones are damaged from constant use, so I'm replacing them with this set. I have a set by Walker that has it and they work great.
Buy these and you will not have any headaches. Even if you do a single build, they will be worth the time and effort. Having the right tools is essential because it's easy to mess up without them, so they pay for themselves after the first It goes without saying you should get them if you plan to do more than one build. I could not have done the job without the punches. They did the job they were made to do and made the job go much more smoothly than trying to do it.
This kit allows you to insert the bolt catch pin into the lower receiver of your AR-15 rifle quickly and easily. It's been built and now it's ready for launch I rebuilt a few dozen before getting this, and I nearly beat myself up for not getting it - it's not just a matter of getting a bigger hammer "Best Hammer" is the only word to describe it. The time period.
It works perfectly. It doesn't have a scratch on the lower part.
An AR is great for building. Easy insertion is made possible by the magnetic tip on the roll pin. Because these tools are designed to prevent scratches, there will be no scratches. Feel confident about your purchase.
