    Anyone have any recommendations for a little but comprehensive Allen key and Torx set in both Imperial and metric? It seems like I’m always stuck for something when opening scope mounts or removing a stock etc. Just looking for something compact like a screwdriver with changeable bits in a nice little case to keep in a range bag

    The imperial keys would be the hardest part but a right size torx would fit in lovely.

    I have an older version of this set.. add a quarter inch drive and its a dinger.

    Woodies have sets. In small yellow plastic box kits, cheap enough
    Check it is the correct kit as there are a couple of different types.

    Check out Caulfield Industrial. They have a great selection of tools. I've been using Bondhaus Allen keys in work. Had the same set for years now and they get a hammering.

    I often buy stuff off Caulfields for work, great to deliver too. I was just hoping someone had a recommendation for a kind of all in one screwdriver kit with changeable bits that was kind of gun specific and packaged in a nice neat little case. I’ve loads of different sets of things for work but they are never at hand when you need them. Just wanted something to keep in the range bag at all times.

    safetydirect.ie are good to deal with. Bondhus are the only brand I'd use, they fit perfectly, and are guaranteed for life.
