    M1 Garand / M1A Barrel tools Question ?

    I am looking to pull a few barrels from a few receivers that I have and I would like to be able to use the items I purchase on M1Aicon's as well .
    I am looking for a Action wrench and some barrel blocks .

    What do you use and whick brands are to be avoided ?
    Right now I am looking at the action wrench from Brownells 080-800-114 and barrel blocks from CMPicon,but I would like to avoid a long delay .
    Looking for any suggestions .
    Thanks in advance !

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I see nothing wrong with the wrench Brownell's sells. If you don't want a long delivery time then don't go with CMPicon unless you are able to drive there and carry it out of the store. CMP is at lease 90 days out.
