    I realize now I am looking for more than “a set” of punches, probably at least 3 sets...roll pin punches, flat punches, and starter punches. Maybe even a nail set or two.
    Mind you these aren’t strictly for use on the AR or even other firearms but that’s just one place they’ll be used.

    First and foremost I’ll have to get my FSB reinstalled and pretty sure I can do that using my smaller brass drift but I’m waiting on a .625 end cap so I have time to look around.

    Thanks again!

        Brownells has everything you need. A good set is not cheap, but typically pays for itself on its first or second use.

          I decided to start with what I need now rather than buying sets. I started with a couple of Starretts I know I need/will use.
          I’ll build a solid collection as I go. I hope to end up with less punches, but better punches this way. So instead of spending money on things I don’t need I can afford to buy better versions of the ones I will need.

              Chineseum indeed. Those motherless fraughters tried to kill us all with their Dog Darned Communist Party Wuhan Flu...sometimes you have to sack up and buy American. Yard sales, pawn shops, estate sales...old school tools from when they were American made.
