WHEELER AR Bolt Catch Install Punch Kit

WHEELER AR Bolt Catch Install Punch Kit is a purposebuilt, gunsmithgrade punch set engineered to simplify and protect ARplatform bolt catch installation and related lowerreceiver pin work.

Product

This compact kit contains the exact punches you need to install and seat AR bolt catch pins and associated roll pins without damaging the receiver, bolt catch, or surrounding components. Each punch is heat treated for durability, features chamfered ends to center on pins, and includes textured gripping surfaces for control during onehanded positioning and hammer strikes. The kit is designed for bench or field use and stores neatly in a molded tray or foam insert for organized transport.
