FAT Wrench

Pawildman · 01-23-2007, 12:27 PM

After reading a write-up on this in my latest issue of American Rifleman, I ordered one from Midway. It's a hand-held adjustable torque wrench you set in in. lbs for gun work. It is used to apply the proper (factory reccommended) torque to screws. Looks a lot easier to use and some less expensive than others I've seen.
Anybody have any experience with it? Probably should have written this post BEFORE I ordered.............

I've been extremely happy with mine. It should serve you well. Good luck

Does it come with different bits, such as torex, allen, etc...?

I have been considering getting one myself. Please post after you use it, and let us know what you think about it. Tom.

I'll do that for sure. The only problem is that they're currently out of stock. I'm backordered and supposedly the next shipment will be around the middle of Feb. Hate it when that happens........

Red Lion...From the picture of the package, it appears to come with about eight different bits or drivers. I can't really see what they all are, but it looks like the shanks on them are a standard size used by screwdrivers with changeable tips. I would assume the most common ones will be furnished with it.
