Description
Regular multi-tools are handy, but they were never built with a hunter or a range day in mind. Real Avid's Gun Tool fixes that. This is the original shooter's multi-tool, and it carries 18 of the jobs you actually run into with rifles and shotguns, all wrapped up in a compact frame that drops into a pocket or a jacket pouch without weighing you down at around 7 ounces.
The build is 420 stainless steel with rubber grip-coated polymer side plates, so you get real grip and enough leverage to put honest torque behind a stubborn choke tube or a screw that won't budge. The tool earned Real Avid a Golden Bullseye "Gear of the Year" nod from the NRA's American Hunter magazine back in 2012, and it's held its spot as a go-to ever since.
What The Gun Tool Actually Does
The universal choke wrench covers everything from .410 up to 10 gauge, which means one tool handles the choke swaps for pretty much any smoothbore you own. There's a scope windage and elevation blade so you're never digging for a coin or a spent casing to zero your optic. A pin punch handles disassembly and detail stripping, and the 420 stainless claw-point blade cuts cord, opens ammo boxes, and takes care of the small stuff. Round it out with Torx drivers in T20, T15, and T10, plus 3/32" and 5/32" Allen hex wrenches.
Bits That Stay Put
A magnetic 3/16" hex driver runs the included Ph1, Ph2, 1/8", and 3/16" bits, and it'll take standard 5mm aftermarket bits too if you've got a specialty job. The bits live in a spring-loaded storage bay held tight by a magnet, so nothing rattles loose in your bag between trips. Whether it stays on the bench, rides in the truck, or heads to the blind, this is the kind of tool you reach for more than you'd expect.

Frequently Asked Questions
What firearms is The Gun Tool designed for?
It's built specifically for long guns, meaning rifles and shotguns. The universal choke wrench handles shotguns from .410 up to 10 gauge, and the Torx, Allen, and screwdriver bits cover common tasks like scope mounting, action work, and tightening loose screws. If you're after a handgun-focused option, Real Avid makes separate pistol tools for that.
Can I use my own bits with the magnetic driver?
Yes. The 3/16" magnetic hex driver runs the four included bits and also accepts standard 5mm aftermarket bits. That gives you room to add a specialty bit for a job the included set doesn't cover, so the tool grows with your needs.
Is The Gun Tool small enough to carry in a range bag or pocket?
It is. At roughly 7 ounces and about 5" x 1.5" x 1.25" folded, it slips into a pocket, range pouch, or truck console without taking up real estate. It's meant to travel to the field, the range, or the bench and stay out of the way until you need it.
How do the bits stay in place during transport?
The bits sit in a spring-loaded storage bay held by a magnet, so they stay put and don't rattle loose between trips. When you flip the hatch open, they're right there and ready to load into the driver.
