The Real Avid Lug-Lok Vise Block is an AR-15 upper-receiver work fixture that secures the upper by its barrel lugs rather than clamping the receiver exterior. The aluminum block slides through the upper and into the barrel extension's star chamber, so torque transfers to the steel lugs - not to the relatively thin aluminum receiver walls.
Key features:
What you get:
Best for: Barrel installation/removal, free-float handguard swaps, gas block work, headspace checks - any AR-15 upper job that historically required clamping a receiver in a vise. Removes the risk of marring or deforming the upper while still giving you a rock-solid work platform.
