🔧 FAQs: Roll Pin Punch Sets
Q: What size punch do I need for an AR-15 bolt catch?
A: Typically, a 3/32" roll pin punch works best for the AR-15 bolt catch. Using a starter punch helps align it before finishing with a standard punch.
Q: Can I use these punches for other firearms?
A: Yes. While they're designed with AR-15 builds in mind, these punch sets work on most rifles, shotguns, and pistols that use roll pins.
Q: What’s the difference between a roll pin punch and a standard punch?
A: Roll pin punches have a small dimple on the tip to center the punch on the pin, reducing the risk of slipping and damaging the firearm.
Q: Do I need a starter punch?
A: For tight or hard-to-reach areas — like the AR-15 trigger guard — a starter punch provides better control when first setting the roll pin.
Q: Is a punch set necessary for beginners?
A: Absolutely. A quality roll pin punch set helps new builders avoid damage and frustration. It’s one of the most essential tools for safe and clean firearm assembly.
