Considerations & Trade-offs
- Requires drilling a small hole in the receiver, so it is only appropriate for users comfortable modifying the firearm.
- Designed specifically for locating the barrel cleaning hole on 10/22A(R) receivers, so its use is limited to that application.
- The jig is a setup tool rather than a finished firearm accessory, so it does not add functionality until the receiver work is completed.
- At 4" long, it is a compact steel tool intended for a specific task rather than a multi-purpose shop fixture.
