    There was a tool before this one issued, but this is still quite early

    I have the one after that, without the three prong slots. I Still use it more than the fancy one I bought later.

    If you deal with the three prong flashhiders, it's still the best tool going. I have several working rifles with the early flashhiders, including my favorite foul weather deer rifle.:

    Early tool

    The M16icon tool will not work on the early flashider because the prongs are different

    I have a photo but it will not post ?
