Gonzo's Review of Wheeler Engineering Fine Gunsmith Equipment 21 Piece Add On Screwdriver Bit Set

These bits are a perfect addition to the large Wheeler set. Good quality. In a way I'd like to give them far less stars though. I'm mad that these should have been included in the set to begin with. These are all the standard bits (hex, torx, etc) that you'd expect to need to work on a lot of modern firearms, AR's, etc. While the main set is a nice collection of all the super rare specialty bits needed for special one off firearm applications, I was very disappointed that it didn't include all the standard "toolbox" bits typically used for more modern stuff.

Many of us won't ever use 50% of the bits in the main set unless you're an actual gunsmith and see a lot of strange things come in your shop. But if you're an enthusiast and wanted a dedicated, quality set of bits just for working on fire arms, the main set is really a disappointment because it doesn't come with the bits you need the most. My feeling was buy the big set and then I'm covered if I run into something strange. But I wasn't even covered for the normal stuff!

Shame on Wheeler! These bits need integrated into the main set for a reasonable price. What is happening here is highway robbery selling it as an addon, but hey, I have the main set. Might as well bring it up to what it should have been in the first place and buy the over priced addon also cause I spend big bucks already on the main set and it really doesn't do what I need.

Note: I don't fault optics planet for this. They are simply selling what Wheeler has to offer as it was designed and they tend to have very competitive prices. I fault Wheeler for designing these sets this way in the first place.
Pros:
  • Finishes the Wheeler Set with all the bits it's missing
Cons:
  • Should have been in the set to begin with
Best Used for:
  • Modern firearms that use standard hex and torx bits
Would Recommend: Yes
