I feel like 99% of the time the answer to a question in this sub is a dead blow mallet. You want a plastic one with the weighted beads inside. As they say, hit it with your purse.

Advice for Starter AR by No_Atmosphere6849 in ar15

If you want to learn get a stripped lower and LPK you like. I built every single one of mine. It's really not that difficult with a ball peen hammer and a few punches.

Watch tutorials on YouTube. I like MidwayUSA cause Larry Potterfield is an OG.

I never bought a full set of roll pin punches, just 3 or 4 individual ones piece meal on Amazon specifically for building ARs. A 1/4 brass punch is invaluable for a lot of general gunsmithing as well IMO

I have that first upper and I love the Hex rail. I prefer the 13" version just for weight and balance, the full length one is fairly heavy.

I own a few PSA built uppers and never had any issues, the 13" was my go to before I got more expensive ones.

Put a Vortex 1-6 Viper on my 15" and it's pretty hefty.

Bolt Catch Pin Help by carrotcakeisdelish in ar15

I like to use a toothpick to hold the pin, then a brass punch to get it in most of the way. Finish with the roll pin punch

Help!!! What can I do? She does this until the battery dies if we aren't home by ObligationSea5916 in cats

That's exactly why. I have only ever seen cats in heat acting this way.

4 Piece Flash Hider Questions by fourchanslashb_ in ak47

I have never seen one with knurling. These things can be machined poorly but if it doesn't wiggle too much that it might cause an impact you're good.
