    Straight slot screwdriver for the pistol grip.
    Small punch and small hammer for the bolt release pin and trigger guard pins.
    Reading glasses if your eyesight is no longer young.
    Razor knife for the takedown pin spring/catches.

        Receiver vice blocks are not needed for the assembly of a stripped lower.

          a screwdriver
          needlenose pliers

            My RRA LPK had a grip screw that needed a hex head driver...one long enough that you could reach into the grip, so a small IKEA allen key would not work.

            I used the Harbour Freight 5 piece punch set (I think it's 5 piece). I also used a big glob of silly putty that I had instead of a vice. It stuck to the table and I just mushed the lower into it. Great for holding roll pins in position too.

            I use a C-clamp to slowly push the trigger guard pin in. Works good too!

            Don't forget electrical tape or something to cover your receiver to protect it from missed hammer strokes, etc. So easy to scratch the receiver (assuming it bothers you if it's scratched up)

            Forget about stopping power. If you can't hit it, you can't stop it.
