So you are taking that piece of modern engineering you call a firearm apart.A handy parts tray can be made from an egg carton to keep all those springs and pins and such seperate.Throw in a few pieces of magnet and you are set.I buy a sheet of magnet from Walmart.i cut it into small pices and strips,place it in the bottoms of the egg cartons and i have as of yet to misplace a part!

I have a rubber mat with ridges on it I "acquired" from the army to prevent parts from rolling off the table. Now if I could only be smart enough to remember some op rods don't have captive springs. PIIIING and there goes the rod, flying across the room. Fun stuff.

If you can't win their hearts and minds, then expose their hearts and minds to open oxygen. WHEN IN DOUBT, THIRTY OUT!!

Never quit learning little tricks to make your working on fire arms easier.
Anyone that says they have worked on guns and claims to never shot a spring, pin, or rod across the room just aint tried hard enough, LOL.
