I am starting to do some light hobby gunsmithing work. I need to buy a screwdriver/tool set. I'm not sure how large of a set I will need. I don't want to buy a $15 set with only a few pieces only to need to buy a bigger set, but I also don't want to buy a large set and only use a few pieces. I am considering this one:

Thoughts?

Thanks

Isn't brownells known for a great screwdriver set?   And I think  you can buy it in pieces.

I agree with the recommendation for Brownells set.





While you can find cheaper sets, I think that the investment in good equipment designed for your task is worth it.





The hollow grind on the Brownells set will save you from messing up the screw heads or slipping and scratching the finish on your firearm.
