Could someone some pics of stock bolt removal tool/s. I currently use a modified flat screwdriver with a square shank. However in France
I found a large bit which will fit in a brace which I think will persuade even the most stubborn stock bolts out. Just got to get it home to the bolts.

The stock bolt removal tool that I use for stubborn stock bolts is a Mk.I third model Ford Tire Iron
Not correct, but it does the job. I too would be interested in some pics of an original one. I sometimes see them on Evil Bay, but they always go for much more than I am willing to spend.

ROY asked for a picture of the real brace and bit for removing the stock bolt ....
BRACES, bit, Armourers BIT, brace, stockbolt shown together.
No stockbolt EVER defeated this combination. The large bit was also used to unscrew the NUT, buffer on the Bren gun butt slide as well as the pistol grip screw

Thanks Peter. Does the blade have little or no taper? unlike a conventional screwdriver, so it will be less likely to ride out of the slot. My bit with a little modification and a carpenters brace should do the trick.

The blade does have a slight taper but believe me, just a slight lean into the end of the brace and that screwdriver bit ain't goin' nowhere except turning that bolt!
We also had a little hooked brass thinggy that we'd use to pull out the WAD, stock bolt
