The Real Avid Pivot Pin Pro Tool eliminates the frustration of AR-15 pivot pin installation and removal with its precision-engineered design. This specialized tool prevents detent spring launches and scratched receivers that plague standard punch methods.
What Makes This Different
Unlike basic punches or improvised tools, the Pivot Pin Pro features a spring-loaded plunger mechanism that captures and controls the detent spring during removal. The tool's dual-ended design handles both front and rear pivot pins with equal precision. Built from black-finished steel with stainless components, it withstands repeated professional use without wear or deformation.
