Easy to use
Saves from shooting detents and springs across the room. Saves money on replacement parts you would normally lose (shot across the room). Alot of nice tools that don't cost alot but save alot of time. Took a few tries to figure out how it works but not much time was spent on that.

Plastic Junk
Don’t waste your money. I read the directions used it just like it said the detent cut a notch in the thing that holds the spring and detent in.
Then I couldn’t pull the plastic thing out rendered the hole thing useless
They made the thing to push em in metal then the thing you turn to hold the s...

Makes Installing Detents Quick & Easy
This little takedown pin detent install tool actually works out perfectly fine. Makes installing easy & fast. Made well enough that it should last quite sometime but they do make a metal version also
Would recommend: Yes
It is worth it.
It is worth it if you want a quick and easy way to install your pivot pin. Most of the tool is a soft plastic, other than the depression pin, which is metal. Some caution needs to be used to keep from marring the tool.
Would recommend: Yes
this tool is a MUST
I would highly reccomend this tool to anyone who wants to make building rifles that much easier! And not to mention the time it will save you. The product is made well and is super easy to use with directions right on the back of the package.
Would recommend: Yes
Real Avid AR15 Pivot Pin Tool
Made installing the pivot pin a snap. Without a tool it can be a challenge to compress the small detent spring and plunger, which get held in place when the pivot pin is inserted. This Real Avid tool is fairly inexpensive and is perfect for the job.
Would recommend: Yes
its Almost Too Easy
After sending a few detents into orbit, I knuckled down and ordered this thing. After a little practice, it made it almost too easy to install the front pivot pin. I wish I had bought it sooner!
My only down-check is the pin portion of the device is easy to lose. I keep it and the red plastic body all together in a Ziplock in my tool kit.

Pros:
- Makes the usually tricky install easy
- Bright red stands out in the toolbox
- Not too expensive for what it is
Cons:
- Soff plastic body does get beat up in the tool box.
- Pin is easy to lose. Needs a retainer
Would recommend: Yes
pivot pi tool
The Real Avid Pivot Pin Tool works very well. It helps to Install the spring and detent without slipping and the spring and detent flying across the room. Works better than my old style pivot pin installation tool.
Would recommend: Yes
Excellent Pivot Pin Gadget
This thing is high quality for what it is and $cheap$ considering hunting down springs/detents. It’s just a plastic gadget for a few seconds of use. I’m not into wasting money on “special purpose” tools if I can manage without them. But, since I’m building multiple AR style rifles this tool and the bolt catch pins are worth buying.
Pros:
- Hi quality, easy installation
Cons:
- non if priced right
Best Used for:
- Build your own!
Would recommend: Yes
Almost makes you want to keep building more just to use it again
I really wish I had bought this tool 3 rifle builds ago. It took only a minute to position and set up the tool. It took less than a minute to install the spring and detent. I looked at other, more simple tools but I liked the template and the tool to push in the pin.
Pros:
- efficient
- Easy
Cons:
- Pricier than other choices.
Best Used for:
- AR-15 5.56
Would recommend: Yes
