Title: Simple repurposed tool to install post for AR dog
Post by: yota924x4 on April 20, 2019, 08:23:15 PM
So i wanted to add a post and dog to a few of my abus so i ordered them from lundgrenfiske a few weeks ago. I thought they were pressed fit but you have to peen the end of the post... well a 1911 plunger tube staking tool is perfect for the job. It has a hardened spike on one end and it drives it into the post mushrooming it into the plate, cleanly without using a punch.
I did a newer 6500c3, the older silverish record 60 and i planned on the newer more blue record but my record 5600 already had the dog and post.

Nice work with the tool, I used a center punch on mine.

Great idea - it does a neater job than a ball hammer.
