Piece Of Junk

Bought two. One for me, one for a friend. Both failed after the first use, stripping the teeth off. Complete waste of money.

If I could leave lower rating, I would.

This broke before I even out any pressure against it. I sent emails to brownells about the problem and they couldn't be bothered to even respond. Waste of time and money. Brownells clearly dont stand by thier inferior products. It's a shame.

Looks nice, but...

Nifty little tool and looks well made. But after soaking my rust free Colt 357 ejector rod assembly for over a week, and applying an astonishingly small amount of pressure, the teeth snapped off. Not happy, I'm out the money and my revolver remains in limbo. I'd pay for one sturdy enough to do the job. Next time "try titanium"

Save your Money

Tines broke off the first time I tried to use it. Also wound up marring the bushing. The cost would have been better applied to the cost of a gunsmith

Weak

Broke on first use. Tang bent, then broke. Old gun but clean, no rust but soaked in pb blaster overnight specifically because other review said it broke but it broke anyway and marred the bushing.
