We here at Scorpion Rifle Works get a lot questions about the basics of AR-15s. We love helping our customers understand this platform. We started with defining what AR-15 means, listed AR-15 parts and now we'd like to focus on the basic tools needed for building an AR-15. 

Here is a list, not comprehensive but one that can get you started. Contact us at anytime if you'd like us to help you:

• Bench with vise
• Receiver bocks for upper and lower 
• Punch set
• Roll pin punch set 
• Nylon/brass hammer 
• Ball peen hammer 
• Combo wrench for the buffer tube, barrel nut, flash hider 
• Torque wrench
• Screwdriver set with hex heads 
• Head space gauges 

So again, remember this list is not comprehensive, but it is a great place to start! Looking forward to hearing from you and happy building!
