308 AR Tools:
AR-10 DPMS LR-308 SR-25 AR 308 Specific Tools
Much like their smaller AR15 siblings these large bore AR rifles require very specific tools. Additionally theres more information at my other sites on basic gunsmithing tools and AR15 tools.
DPMS .308 Panther Receiver Claw
308-TL-PRC
The “Claw” is the perfect armorer tool for holding all DPMS .308 upper receivers. Made of a solid one piece high strength polymer, the Claw is extremely durable. Simply clamp the Claw into a bench vise, slide the upper onto the Claw, secure with the two holding pins and begin installing your barrel and components.
DPMS .308 Lower Receiver Vise Block – Action Block
308-MA-FP
The DPMS “308 Vise Block” is similar to an AR15 vise block. The plastic block is inserted and locked into the magwell like a magazine. The block is then firmly clamped in a vise. This is a must have item for working on lower receivers.
