Overview

Built for extractor installation work, this anvil supports the back side of the extractor rivet while you peen the opposite end to lock a new extractor in place. It fits inside the face bolt recess and is shaped to provide added support when clamped in a vise. For hunters and gunsmiths who maintain Remington rifles, it offers a dedicated bench tool for a specific repair task rather than a general-purpose shop accessory.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Purpose-built for extractor rivet peening, so it is a specialized shop tool rather than a general-purpose firearm accessory.
  • It is sized to fit inside the bolt face recess, which means compatibility depends on the specific Remington bolt geometry it was designed around.
  • Use requires a vise and peening setup; it is not a standalone solution for extractor installation.
  • The hardened tool-steel construction is suited to the task, but the blued finish and compact form suggest a workshop tool that should be handled and stored accordingly.
