BROWNELLS MAGNETIC PIN STARTERS

The Brownells® Magnetic Pin Starters are specialized gunsmithing tools designed to hold round-headed firearm pins securely during installation and reassembly. By keeping the pin aligned and controlled while starting it into its hole, these tools help prevent slips, scratches, and finish damage that can occur during firearm maintenance and repair.

Compact and easy to use, the Magnetic Pin Starters are particularly useful for firearms that utilize round-headed pins, such as many Smith & Wesson® designs.
