Reviews & Ratings for Real Avid AR15 Easy Grip Handguard Removal Tool — 7 reviews — Page 1

One other review compared it to having a third hand. That sealed it for me, and it is actually just that easy. I have an A2 slip ring, and it makes attaching A1 and A2 handguards a breeze. Get it.

Yes this is required for handguard removal (if you have a mil spec M16/M4 one and you want to switch with a magpul MOE)

Just be careful when you are pulling this (requires a bit of force), this can scratch if not careful

This is the perfect tool to remove the M4 handguards. I've tried many different ways to remove the stupid handguards in the past. Then, I saw this on a YouTube video, and knew I had to have one! Makes disassembly and modification so much easier! I highly recommend this tool if you plan to change handguards on ARs.

Great Tool, very simple and easy to use and the price is right.

After several attempts to remove the initial hand guard & then several attempts to install the new hand guard, the sharp edges on the delta ring indeed did cut thru the rubber/plastic protective covering on the rods of the tool. I’m not aware of any other material that could be used to cover the rods that would not be susceptible to tearing/cutting on the edges of the delta ring. It’s just the nature of the beast. Next I will try wrapping the rods with a good quality electrical tape such as a 3M product.
The 3M tapes that come in the milky looking translucent plastic containers are very high quality tapes. But even that will not be a one time application that will last indefinitely. As far as the performance of the tool, it did what it is designed to do; collapse the delta ring.
The design of the hand guard is made to high ...
