DesertDuck's Review of Gerber Short Stack AR15 Maintenance Tool
The tool itself seems well designed with plenty of features you can use.
I'm not super keen on the bit-driver aspect of it. Having to remove the rubber bit holder each time you use the tool for something seems like a point of weakness (it will eventually wear out), and the bits themselves are tiny and could get lost in the field, which is the whole point of using this tool to begin with, field expedient repair.
If I were to use it I'd probably omit the bits and just hold onto it for the wrenches, scrapers, and front sight tool.
The main negative is that it doesn't fit in a BCM grip. It is stated to work with Magpul grips specifically, but I took the chance and was disappointed.
Debating on keeping it.
