I just got my vice block set in the mail, now I need help understanding how to use it. The lower vice block is a no brainer, easy to see how to use it. The upper vice block leaves me wondering; Which part gets clamped in the vice? The thicker part (opposite the hinge) that orients the upper in the upright position? AND, how tight do I clamp it? Clamping the vice block around my upper by hand, there remains a gap of 3/16" between the two halves of the block. Should I clamp it in the vice enough to close this gap? And, what do I do with the tool that slides into the upper where the BCG goes? Thanks in advance for the expert advice! |

Quoted: Help yourself out and tell what blocks you have. After a re-read close the uppers gap in the vice. I've only needed this type of block when dealing with NM tubes. A barrel block will do most any AR. I'd send the lower block back for a refund, it's not needed It is a Pro-Mag vice block set. Lower block came with the set, wouldn't be able to return a piece of a set. |
