Business End Too Short
Haven't used them yet, but right away I noticed the business end of these punches is too short. They will be OK for seating a pin, but they will not be long enough to drive a pin all the way out. Quality appears to be OK. I'd previously purchased a cheaper punch set from Harbor Freight and the diameters were oversized so they wouldn't fit in the hole rendering them useless. I measured these with a caliper and the diameters are spot on to one or two thousandths undersize.
If you don't need to drive pins completely out these will be fine. If you need to drive pins all the way out then find some...

Almost worked perfectly
Worked OK but much smaller than I imagined. The whole punch is maybe about 2.5 inches long. The actual punch part is about half an inch. Maybe less. Not quite long enough to get the roll pin all the way out of my gas block, I had to pull it the rest of the way out with pliers. I guess that's ok because a very small part didn't go flying across the room but it was difficult to get a grip on to get the rest of the way out. It ended up working after all but just keep that in mind. OK for the price
Pros:
- works
- Not expensive
- Correct diameter
Cons:
- smaller than expected
Would recommend: Yes
Solves a problem
The roll pins on the AR have always given me trouble. One of the difficulties is that the small punches can bend on stubborn pins, These punches are good for getting the pins moving, without the punch buckling (this mostly applies to the smaller ones).
Would recommend: Yes
Good item to have when building an AR
These are pretty good roll pin punches. I've probably not treated them as nicely as I could have, but I discovered they like to be handled gently. I've nicked up the edges of these when roll pins hit (unexpected) resistance. The finish is ok, but it would be nice if it were harder than the basic phosphate.
Pros:
- basic craftsmanship
Cons:
- Finish
Best Used for:
- Ar building
Would recommend: Yes
poor quality
Too short and they deform easily leading me to believe that the claim of being hardened tool steel is not true. Spend a few more bucks for a better quality set with longer length, more sizes and good steel. I regret wasting money on these
Would recommend: No
