Tools for Firearms:
General:
November 8, 2008.
There are some basic tools that should be in my opinion a necessity in every shooters tool box regardless of the type of firearms you service. Below is a list of what I use. I will also add separately tools for specific firearms like an AR15, 1911 pistol etc. Do yourself a big favor and don't buy the cheap import stuff or you'll end up with stripped screws, marred finishes and who knows what else. Also try to make sure you work in a neat and clean are to make dropped parts easier to locate, work in an un distracting area so you don't get mental lapses and put something together incorrectly or leave a critical part out. Use a gun vise or cradle on a bench when possible. This will free up your hands for the task at hand. Use a soft clean mat to prevent marring of the firearms finish. When possible I've included a link (green text) where the tools can be purchased.
