I'm sure many of you have seen this tool before but I'm also sure a number of you have not.  IMHO, this is a "must have" tool for any AR-15, M-16, or AK-47 owner.  It's a multi-tool that fits in the pistol grip of your firearm.

I saw these recently and added one to my "must purchase" list.

I bought mine from MidwayUSA and returned it the very next day.  

The tools are great and the functionality was awesome, but i didn't like the wayit fit in the MIAD.   No matter what i did, in order to get it out, i had to use a screwdriver or some other tool to wedge it out.  On top of that, the MIAD cap that came with it wouldn't even latch on to it, so when i took it off the grip, the cap would come off and then I'd have to wedge the tool out.  

Maybe my incident was isolated, but i returned it and bought the Leatherman MUT which is 100% more effective and it had better tools.

Although you have some good points, I use the cap to wedge it out.

I'll look into the Leatherman MUT you mentioned though.  Thank you.

i have the standard field survivor and the butt of the tool rotates so you can grab it and pull it out of the handle. i got mine off ebay for 90 bucks new.
