    Anyone use 1 of these? AR specific multitool.
    Leatherman multi-tools: MUT

    Looks like a very handy piece of kit.

    You don't actually need any specific tools for an AR except a castle nut wrench, barrel nut wrench, neither of which are on that

    Has other handy bits on it that other multi's don't.

    Brownells do a Multitasker multitool as well - but they won't send them out of the USA 'cause they're black, dangerous and menacing. lol

    A comparison review of the 2 tools....

    Not after workshop tools Gimp, I know someone with all of them.
    Just thought it'll be a handy bit of kit to have on the hill.

    Over priced, gay colour. Buy an NEA and paint it green or tan. Only like $20 for a can of Krylon or Rustoleum.

    Not sure I would say camo is tacticool, just different. Don't understand why people give a shit what others think of what your rifle looks like. If it's accurate and reliable mint. Paint it whatever colour you want.

    When my camo wears off I might try anodized tan or give it a go going digi cam for shits and giggles.

    Colour is all up to you personal preference, the missus want me to paint her 10/22 stock hot pink so that's what she'll get - but she wont catch me using it.
    need some inspiration?

    NEA's are grey. I don't think real tree looks great on an AR, even less so when it starts peeling off and you're left with white chips in your finish.

    I should state I was in an extremely sour mood when I made that post, so apologies for any offence.
