What tools do you use?

[cory]

I've got a good trinity armour's wrench I use. All the good ones are about the same. You'll want a torque wrench and receiver block for your barrel nut install.

I don't use punches other than for installing a trigger. A good trick I've found is using a channel lock to install the pins. I wrap the jaws in electrical tape so I don't mar the lower. If you take your time and adjust the wrench accordingly they go in much smoother than using a punch. Craftsman sells rubber covers for wrenches. I've recently bought some, but I haven't had a chance to try them yet.
