Quality Punches

[loudpedal]

I would like to find a source for some quality roll pin, and pin starter punches.

Anyone have a favorite source for these, and other common gunsmithing tools?
I have picked up some items like this at gun shows and the quality has been a little questionable.

I have gotten some good starter punches from Brownell's. I got my roll pin punches from a local hardware store.

Look at grace stuff.

I got a few of the hollow ground screwdrivers and some punches from them.

A brass hammer and a leather one, some blue and purple locktite. a few other items are needed still but working on them slowly. Will be set in a few years.

I got mine at Brownells. I suppose there are other outlets you could buy from, but supplying gunsmiths & hobbyists is kinda their thing.

Thanks guys, I appreciate all the input. I was afraid that Brownells might sell some funky Chinese stuff. After looking at their Grace products combined with affirmation from you guys I will go in that direction. Some products that I had picked up at the 1500 made me a little shy about some manufacturers.

This is why INGO rules.

My wife last year for Christmas picked me up one of the Weaver Gun Smith tool sets. It's the Bomb ! Has everything for general repair, scope mounting, knocking out roll pins etc. Do a little searching on the net. I think she found it on sale for around $60.00
Here is a link to what it looks like.
