Since you said no Dremel

One thing you might look for is a precision vise to hold sears and hammers when stoning them

The only gun specific tool I have is an AR armorer's wrench.

Screw drivers, punches, vise and the like are all out in my garage/shop.
Also, I use an old t shirt to protect uppers while clamped in my vise!
