What is the BROWNELLS - AR-15 Sight Wrench, A1 5 Prong?

BROWNELLS SIGHT WRENCH FOR AR-15

The Brownells Sight Wrench for AR-15 is a precision-machined adjustment tool designed to simplify front and rear sight adjustments on AR-15, M16, and related rifle platforms. Constructed from tough stressproof steel, this specialized wrench provides secure engagement with sight detents for precise zeroing and repeatable sight corrections without damaging the sight assembly.

Square-profile engagement fingers grip sight notches firmly to help prevent slipping during adjustment, while the deeply drilled body accommodates both standard and tall front sight posts. The hex-shaped body provides a comfortable grip for positive control and helps prevent the tool from rolling off the workbench.

Available in A1, A2, and combination A1/A2 configurations, the Sight Wrench allows armorers, competitors, and firearm enthusiasts to make quick and accurate sight adjustments both at the bench and on the range.

Fantastic tool!
Worked great on the front and rear sight of a Daniel Defense AR.

Front Sight Tool
The picture you show isn't what I received.

Ruger AR556 Front Sight
Have tried 4 different front sight post tools on my Ruger AR556. This one works perfectly. The others don't push the detent down far enough to turn the post. Also the large portion of the tool makes it much easier to hold and turn the tool. As a disabled veteran with nerve problems in my hands it is a great tool.

Saved me
The sight detent is at fault. It's really hard to push in. Try the bullet tip method and I got a bent bullet. The cheapos would have broken on the first try. Even with this tool muscle is needed to seat the tool and then turn it. I doubt I'll need it after getting the sight zero'd, but it might get easier to use after a break-in period. This tool is staying with the rifle, it's worth the price.

Worked like a champ!
Perfect fit and easy adjustment on my old Colt SP1 pre-assist. Hex design made for a good grip. Only used this one time so can't determine durability of tool. I will say that there is very little strain - should last hopefully. The pins were just long enough to engage but not make contact with carry handle.
