I am interested in starting to do a little gunsmithing. I mostly want to be able to take my gun down to pieces for complete cleaning and sometimes for trigger work. I have ran into my first problem though. I need a punch set. I know nothing about punch sets, for instance do they make ones that are only for rifles and ones only for pistols or a set for both? Which would be better to buy? Which brand and what type of material should I buy to make sure the punch set I buy doesn't bend and break within a couple of hits? Lastly I have read some replies to this quuestion for specific guns and I'm confused by some of the talk. For instance are there different pins to be knocked out? Like roller pins? What all type of pins are there and what is needed to get them out? At this moment though I don't have a particular gun in mind for taking all the way down so I don't know if I should get punches or a punch set for the particular gun or not. Any help in this area would be great!
Thanks for all the help!
