Description

Most vise blocks are a one-trick pony, built to fit a single style of AR and nothing else. The XS Sights Armorers Block Gen 2 flips that around. It's machined to grip both upper and lower receivers across a wide swath of AR-pattern rifles, so whether you're building an AR-15 from a stripped lower or running maintenance on a big-bore AR-10, this one block covers the ground of what used to take two or three.

It's cut from 6061 T6 aluminum with an anodized finish and made in the USA at XS Sights' shop in Fort Worth, Texas. Drop it into a standard bench-mounted vise, seat your receiver, and lock it down with the included steel detent pins. There's a fitment screw for AR-15 lowers that helps everything sit tight and stay put while you're torquing a barrel nut or driving out pins. When you're finished, the pins tuck into holes on top of the block so the whole kit stays together and doesn't wander off in your parts bin.

What the XS Armorers Block Gen 2 Actually Fits

Compatibility is the whole point here. It handles AR-15 and M4 receivers, AR-10, SR-25, DPMS-pattern .308, DPMS GII, and Armalite rifles. If you work on more than one flavor of AR, that range saves you from buying a separate block for each. Worth noting: it isn't set up for .300 Win Mag or 12 gauge AR platforms.

Bracing AR-10 Lowers with the Gen 2 Block

AR-10 lowers have a larger mag well, so to brace into it properly XS offers a 3D-printed adapter plate as a separate add-on. If you've got a printer at home, the files are posted free on the XS Sights website, which is a nice touch for anyone who likes to make their own. Between the solid aluminum build and the sheer number of platforms it handles, this is about as close to a one-size-fits-all bench solution as you'll find for AR work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What rifles does the XS Sights Armorers Block Gen 2 work with?

It's built to hold both upper and lower receivers across a wide range of AR platforms, including AR-15, M4, AR-10, SR-25, DPMS-pattern .308, DPMS GII, and Armalite rifles. That broad fit is the main reason to reach for it over a single-platform block. Keep in mind it isn't designed for .300 Win Mag or 12 gauge AR builds.

Do I need anything extra to work on AR-10 lowers?

AR-10 lowers have a larger mag well, so XS offers a 3D-printed adapter plate to brace into it properly. That plate is sold separately. If you have a 3D printer at home, XS posts the files for free on their website so you can print your own.

How does the Armorers Block Gen 2 secure the receiver?

The block seats into a standard bench-mounted vise, and the included steel detent pins lock your receiver in place. There's also a Phillips fitment screw for AR-15 lowers to keep things snug while you work. When you're done, the pins store in holes on top of the block so nothing gets lost.

Is the XS Armorers Block Gen 2 made in the USA?

Yes. It's machined from 6061 T6 aluminum at the XS Sights facility in Fort Worth, Texas. The anodized aluminum build is meant to give you durable, repeatable support over years of bench work.
