BROWNELLS
FN-FAL RIFLE ACTION WRENCH & HEAD

080801101

Description
Ratings (4)

The only commercially available action wrench system that surrounds and supports the receiver ring and recoil lug to distribute potentially damaging torque forces equally. The solid steel base has a unique, machined relief to clear the recoil lug on most Mauser-type bolt action rifles and, the individual, bolt-on Heads are machined to provide an exact fit around and against the receiver ring or barrel nut for each of the firearm models listed. Together, they support the receiver in a ring of steel and greatly increase the amount of surface gripping area to totally eliminate twisted bolt ways or damaged, ruined receivers. This is the most advanced, complete, professional-quality, Action Wrench System. With it, you can prevent expensive receiver damage on MOST popular rifle actions, including military models, plus, models for selected handguns. Two-piece head fits inch and metric pattern receivers. Provides clearance for full length cocking handle rails.

Difficult to use correctly (30/07/2010)

Wrench works best removing de-milled receiver stubs from used barrels that come with FAL parts kits. Very hard to juggle the multiple pieces that make up this tool. Also there are clearance issues that can cause receiver damage in the charging handle guide slot area. This wrench system works great on M1 Garand, Mauser 98 and other receivers, just not on FALs. [...]

Not configured properly (28/11/2012)

Working on a metric G1 FAL barrel with DSA receiver. For one, the metal that actually holds the receiver is thinner than the block AND exactly in the middle, so the block overhangs on both sides of the actual gripping metal. That means that you can not just put some aluminum blocks in your vice and hold the barrel in the vice, as the extra metal on the wrench head sticks out past the receiver that you are turning. If they just made the receiver gripping metal flush with the face of the head on one side, this would be vastly improved, but there would still be a problem... all that extra metal limits how far back you can set the block on the other side, as it starts to hit the magazine well. All the extra thick metal in the head basically serves little purpose as far as making the head any stronger and serves to make the whole wrench pretty useless. It's also far too much metal to grind off. Also, the metal that grips the receiver is hitting in the wrong places, too close to the gas nut hole in the receiver (that could be solved by some filing and sanding, but not worth it with the other problems).

The Best FAL Receiver Wrench (07/01/2013)

We first saw this wrench at another shop and were impressed with the near total bearing surface of the design so we bought two. After getting them in house we had to admit they can be a bit awkward to use at first, but once we got a system down we fell in love with them.
We have barreled and re-barreled many rifles with Imbel, DSA, and Coonan receivers in Barrel lengths from 26" down to 11" with no problems at all. We are definitely recommending this to all our associates and the only reason we can see to ever buy another one is because we need more people building more rifles.

New FAL Wrench, better than plate style (11/08/2014)

We tried this wrench after less-than-perfect results with other

cut-from-plate style of FAL wrenches. The plate wrenches

didn't fit as well as the Brownells wrench and would mark the

receivers.

This wrench worked perfectly with the Brownells FAL vise blocks. We had no problems. Assemble the wrench to the

receiver on the bench, as it can take 3 hands until you get the

hang of it.

Was easy to get correct alignment and barrel torque.
