Gunsmith's tools

[The Burpster]

I have one of these in my range bag, whilst it isnt a comprehensive bit set it is enough to do most jobs whilst out from home!

I’m a massive Wheeler fan now!

Oh and how do you rate the rifle stand? I keep looking at them and thinking they look great VFM.

Just bought one of these yesterday: A Wheeler 100 piece set. Imperial and metric hex keys, imperial and metric nut drivers, loads of "common point" [flat] bits, plus posidrive, torx, and a weird Leupold thingy..


£149.99

If you are looking for more traditional looking turnscrews, Axminster tools keep the Narex ones in three sizes. Not silly prices either.

Gunsmith Tools, What guns are you anticipating to dismantle and reassemble?
From my experience apart from the generic tools there is a selection of gun specific tooling which leads into another area, the toolmaker type. I've managed to make my own specific tooling where required, however they tend to be less than ideal, points of contact which need hardening / tempering left out, material selection is what is available, machine tool accuracy with non professional equipment etc. I can draw on the expertise of a professional precision engineering company who work to standards in microns on exotic metal alloys with CNC machine tools valued at over £100,000 each, but that's going a bit too far!

Most tools are made on the Bench with hammer and forging . Hardening and tempering . You can also distroy some old screwdrivers and such and re-work them
