LR-308 Combo Armorer Wrench

[Steampunque]

I've been tweaking my DPMS LR-308 and bought was I thought was going to be decent LR-308 combo wrench from Monstrum Tactical; it turned out to be craptastic at best. 

Although Monsturm claims that the wrench was specifically designed for the DPMS LR-308, check out how well it fits my buffer tube castle nut below.  Yeah, that's gonna work...not.  It's going back to Monstrum one way or another; they have not responded to polite E-mail and Twitter messages concerning their POS wrench. 

I'm now looking at the Weaponwerx combo wrench; anyone have one of these?  AR Combo Armorer Wrench

I suggest you search the archives. I just typed in armorers wrench and got a bunch of references including this one.

Check out the Magpul armorers wrench, very well made in my experience, I believe 98 has one as well.

Thanks for the responses; I have taken a look at archived 308AR posts, but a lot of 'em were kinda dated with dead links, etc.

The Magpul wrench looks good, and I generally like their products, but I was just curious if anyone had tried the Weaponwerx tool.

That MagPul wrench is the SHEIIIT!  I don't know if it works on 308 barrel nuts or not, but that kinda doesn't matter anymore, when most rails show up with their own proprietary wrench - or you have to buy that proprietary wrench anyway...

my magpul wrench wont fit over a commercial extension tube..i might have a dud.? ill send it back but my generic wrench works great.

i did make it work but it was sketchy and not as advertised use.

Worked on my AP M5 barrel nut just like it was made for it, nice and snug fit. That was the standard style and not one of their enhanced versions.

Same here, same barrel nut.
