Simplify the installation and removal of barrels, muzzle devices, gas blocks, and handguards with the AR-15 Reaction Rod from Geissele Automatics. The reaction rod redirects torque from the soft aluminum receiver and receiver index pin into the barrel extension. It is machined from a solid bar of 4140 chrome moly steel and features flats for securely clamping vertically or horizontally into a bench vice. This allows users to slide the upper receiver onto the rod, where the integral spines will interface with the locking lugs in the barrel's receiver extension. By transferring the torque into the locking lugs, sheared barrel pins are a thing of the past, and worry-free installation of barrel nuts, gas blocks, and muzzle devices is possible. As a bonus, with no wiggling in clamped fixtures, the Reaction Rod won't mar your receiver's finish and doesn't require the removal of mounted optics or iron sights.

Features:
  • Compatible with 5.56 and .223 platforms
  • Easy removal and installation of barrels, muzzle devices, gas blocks, and handguards
  • Designed to be used vertically or horizontally in a bench vise
  • Internal spines enter the barrel extension to prevent it from turning
  • Won't mar the upper receiver's finish
  • No need to remove sights and mounts from the 1913 rail

Solid tool

by

Haven't had a chance to build with it yet, but it's a solid looking tool and I have no doubt it will perform with the quality Geissele is known for.

Heavy and Solid

by

Haven't used it yet, but very heavy and solid.

A top of the line tool

by

I guess for the price of this piece I was expecting a lot . I was not disappointed. This is a finely crafted and finished tool. That should come in handy for years to come. It's a much better way to do barrel work and upper receiver work than with the prior clamp and poly insert I was using before. Can u do the work without it? Yes. Does this thing allow you to do it like a pro and with ease and less likelyhood of damaging your upper? A most definite yes. Good purchase.

Excellent Customer Service

by

I missed their labor day sale by one day but they provided me the sale price. Also, when I showed them that another company had free shipping they provided that also. Cant beat that! Thanks.

Won't fit

by

It won't fit into the barrel extension even after a scary amount of effort. I was afraid I'd ruin my barrel extension. I was very disappointed.

It's a little shorter than expected but other than that it was just as described shipped and delivered very quickly will definitely order from them again

It's a solid piece of bar stock cut to engage the locking lugs of the barrel extention on an ar15. Works as advertised to take stress off of the aluminum frame and places it on the infinitely more solid barrel. When tightening barrel nuts and brakes.

Definitely Solid!

Looks like it will be a great tool when I remove the flash suppressor on several rifles.

Perfect tool for quality work. Tried using barrel vise jaws to install muzzle brake but upper receiver wanted to keep on rotating when carefully torquing brake. Ordered this tool and completed work in less than 5 minutes. Customer service was also excellent which I used to inquire about order. Top notch service unmatched by competitors as far as I am concerned.
