ROLL PIN TOOL FOR GAS BLOCK Reviews & Ratings

The hole in the tip of the Gas Block Roll Pin Tool is sized so that the roll pin will need to be pressed into the tool first (the roll pin will not just slide in). Stand the roll pin on a hard surface and tap the tool onto the pin to seat it in the tool. When the hole in the gas block grabs the roll pin, the pin will collapse enough so the tool can be removed from the roll pin. Afterwards, all that is needed is a tap with a punch to seat the roll pin in the gas block.

Great Tool

This is a properly sized roll pin holder punch for gas tube roll pins. A few other brands that I've bought were either too tight or too loose to do the job. Geissele got it right though. I accidentally ordered 2 so I am probably set for the rest of my life. LOL

Great Tool

I had a gas block roll pin that was giving me nothing but problems. I ordered this and the first roll pin I tried, went right in.

GEISSELE AUTOMATICS LLC ROLL PIN TOOL

Must have tool to install a gas block pin into your gas block. So much easier to install the pin.

Must have

Using this tool made my life so much easier, it's pain in the behind to put the pin correctly in the gas block.

Just buy it!

Seriously just buy it already! I had pushed off buying it for years due to the price and its narrow application. After using it, I'm mad I didn't just buy it before. The gas tube installation was the quickest I've ever done and I didn't even have to break out the curse words!

The Right Tool

Works just the way it says. I could have made one but while the tool is a little expensive I use it a lot so am satisfied.

Trouble Installing those tiny pins?

If you're having trouble installing those tiny gas tube roll pins, look no further. this punch starter is the perfect size to meet the needs of the gunsmith when it comes to getting those little suckers started and the gas tube properly aligned.

Helpful Tool

This is the right tool for the job: installing the tiny roll pin in the gas block of an AR-series rifle. Also works on charging handle and rear sight adjustment knob pins. This tool will install the pin about halfway in and you'll need to finish the job with a regular punch, but starting the pin straight was always the hard part. Very reasonably priced for the hassle it saves.
