I have heard nothing but good things about these 3, Whats the big difference between them. 1 gem state 2 hammerhead 3 Smith enterprises I am looking at getting some tools so I can do some work on my ar's. I also didnt want to hijack anyone else s thread. 1 I do not have a Gem State wrench because I don't really like the idea of the thin barrel nut engagement plate it uses in it's design, it looks like it could be very easy to slip off the nut with it. 2 The HammerHead is a good stock wrench. The only thing I don't like about it is how far away the cutouts for the torque wrench are. I prefer the Brownells 4 point stock wrench for this reason. 3 The Smith Enterprises barrel wrench that I have has a powder coat finish that interferes with it's ability to fit correctly on anything it was made for. I do not know if current versions have the powder coat finish or not. If I were you I would look into Spike's line of wrenches as they look pretty good. You can see them > here < |
