Hello,
I'm about to start my first build and I am starting out with a stripped lower, a stock and a LPK. Can someone please list for me the specific tools I would need to get the lower put together and where I can get them? I will be using the thread here that explains how to put it together, I just dont know what specific tools I would need. Thanks in advance |

From the tacked threads at the top of this forum explaining how to assemble a lower.
There are a few tools that make it easier to put together these kits, but none of them are necessary. Minimum requirements include a hammer and punch to drive in a couple of roll pins, a flat-blade screwdriver for A2 stock screw, and either a screwdriver or Allen key for the pistol grip screw. Specialized tools are available from Brownells, at 515-623-4000.
Roll Pin Punches - to drive roll pins (3/32", 1/8", 5/32"); these have a small raised projection in the face of the punch to automatically center the punch and prevent the roll pin from collapsing Roll Pin Holders - used to hold and start roll pins... very convenient Hammer - used to drive the roll pins #10 Flat-Blade Screwdriver - used for A2 stock screw and some pistol grips Block of wood - base to support receiver when driving roll pins Pivot Pin Installation Tool - handy tool if you build a few lowers Allen Key - used for some pistol grips Telescoping Stock Wrench - to tighten telescoping stock lock ring |
