Vise and Bench Block FAQ
Can I clamp an AR receiver straight in a bench vise?
Steel jaws can crush or mark an aluminum receiver. A vise block shaped for the receiver spreads the clamping force and protects the finish.
What is a bench block for?
It supports the frame or receiver right around a pin hole, so the part does not flex or break while you punch the pin out.
