Start Roll Pins Without Damage

Start the removal of roll or spring pins without causing damage to the pins or the punch. Short shaft starter punch gives you more control by putting your hand closer to the pin and keeps you from bending longer finishing roll pin punches. Made from solid steel, with parallel-ground shanks and knurled handles.

SPECS: Steel, black. Kit contains one each of seven sizes: #1, 1/16" (1.6mm); #2, 5/64" (2mm); #3, 3/32" (2.4mm), #4, 1/8" (3.2mm); #5, 5/32" (4mm); #6, 3/16" (4.8mm); 7/32" (5.5mm); #7, 7/32" (5.5mm).

Essential tools (16/09/2009)

These punches are the best to get a roll pin going in the direction you want. They are a must have for any work on a firearm with roll pins.

Needed Product (03/10/2009)

I watched the video that Brownell had on using Roll Pin Punches and the commentator suggested the started punch kit because it sits properly within the roll pin as you start working it out of the weapon without damaging the roll pin. His advisement was good enough for me and bought the set. I'd recommended you do the same too.

Excellent roll pin punch set (14/05/2010)

Should have bought these a few years ago. Shorter than normal, so you will have less bent punches. They are long enough though to completely drive out most roll pins anyway.

Nothing special, poor quality control (26/03/2012)

These appear to be decent quality punches, but their usefulness is limited. I guess they are good if you tend to bend normal length punches and want to spend the money on an additional set of punches. However, these are not long enough to punch most pins all the way out (just "start" them, as the name states), so you will still need a normal length punch. Because of that, I don't see the need for these.

FYI, these are not roll pin holders, they are just short roll pin punches.

Also, poor quality control on Brownells part - One of the punches that came with mine was the wrong size and wasn't even a roll pin punch. Nice Snap-On 1/16 punch, but not the No. 3, 3/32 roll pin punch it was supposed to be. On top of that, the 3/32 roll pin punch in the other set I bought from Brownells was bent when I opened the package....so I guess I'm not meant to own a 3/32 roll pin punch from brownells

Not good at all! (06/06/2014)

Ok lets be fare. the first set of these I bought about 2 years ago, and they were GREAT! They were machined very well, and lasted through hundreds of builds. Finally wore out the 2 smallest pin punchs. So I sent back the whole set for replacement. The set I received back are HORRIBLE! They came out of the bag completely RUSTED! After 3 hours of soaking in Corrosion Block I noticed huge pits from the rust. Than I noticed the new style nipple on the end of the punch is not a rounded knob like it should be, but a sharp point that will break as soon as you use it. Not sure if I got remans, or if Brownells is using a different manufacturer? What ever the case, dont waste your money on these, these are junk! I do notice now they have PREMIUM ROLL PIN STARTER SET, for almost 15 dollars more. My question is simple, WHY CARRY THE JUNK ONES????

Roll Pin Set (26/08/2014)

I bought these for my AR builds. Took them out of the UPS box and assembled a lower that same night. Worked fine. Did need to add something between my hammer and the punch to prevent the hammer or punch from marring the side of the lower, but thats no big deal really.

Time will tell if these hold up, but if you use them correctly, I don't see how you'll bend or break these.
