The AR-15 is arguably one of the most modular rifle platforms in history. It has often been compared to a grown-up version of a Lego set. You can customize the weapon as much as you like to create a bespoke rifle. However, every good AR needs great tools to ensure it can be tailor-made to your exact needs.
Enter Magpul’s BEV or Barrel Extension Vise. It is way better than most of the other AR-15 vice blocks out there. Excessive pressure on a regular vice block might cause the barrel extension index pins to shear and break, something that’s practically impossible with the BEV.
Magpul is known for making very high-quality magazines, grips, and other components. Their barrel extension vise is yet another chip off the Magpul block. You can use it to perform many different operations on your AR. From swapping barrel nuts to changing the stock and even a trigger job, your BEV will help do it all.
If stability is required, the BEV is just the thing, as it will enable you to perform even very precise and delicate tasks such as installing a new LPK. You can count on your BEV for every task where you need a rock-steady platform for your rifle.
The Magpul BEV: A Cut Above the Rest
This BEV comes equipped with powerful steel lugs that can lock onto your barrel extension. Apart from that, its full-length steel support body has been made with very high-quality polymer. In fact, the same polymer that has made other Magpul products a household name in the firearms world.
While its high tensile steel has been optimized for maximum reliability and durability, you can rest assured there is no chance it will scratch or otherwise harm the surface of your barrel extension. The BEV utilizes Magpul’s high-quality polymer to protect your weapon’s aluminum receiver, along with all other places that require metal-to-metal (or metal-to-polymer) contact.
However, that’s not all. You can simply flip the BEV to use it as a mag well vise block. This way, you can take care of your lower receiver assembly and maintenance needs with the same vice.
You can count on your Magpul BEV Block to see you through every AR-15 you assemble, maintain, or modify. Just add it to your toolkit and forget about any other vice block out there!
