Has anyone used or knows this will work for an AR-V9mm upper to hold for barrel removal? Thanks

It will. I dont use the pic rail side but instead use the side with take down pins.
@GuitarGuy Thanks so much for all your help. It’s greatly appreciated. Order placed
Are you wanting to remove the barrel from the upper?
If I still have feed issues after replacing the buffer then I might remove the barrel to profile an improved feed cone. Besides, it’s a tool and it’s on sale ![]()
Reaction rad may be needed.
Reaction rod’s for 5.56 and similar barrels will not work with a 9mm due to a lack of barrel extension and lugs on a 9mm barrel.
Did not know that.
I like the ones from NCstar, I have both the small & large frame upper blocks, the lower holds both. If you think you may want to change muzzle devices, especially if rockset is used, get a reaction rod.

Reaction rods that lock into barrel extension lugs will not work with 9mm barrels.
The Wheeler vise adapter fits great. Haven’t tried to remove the barrel but if I ever do now I have the right tool. Anyone know of a magazine well adapter for working on the lower?
I drew up a vice block to fit the magazine well including snapping in like the normal magazine. I 3d printed in C/F nylon and seems pretty strong if anyone wants the Stl file to print their own just ask.
Thanks for posting this one. I have a few blowback uppers and that looks like it should work pretty good. I have the clamshell style holder but it doesn’t fit some of my billet uppers. I read that it may not fit my side chargers but I won’t know for sure until I try it. Might just need a little milled off to clear the charging handle. Should be here in a couple days.
Hey could you please send the STL file?
I sent you a message
I’m waiting on my AR-V to arrive. For some reason, it’s taking forever to ship. BUT, I would love to have a mag vice block. Can you send me the Stl please?
Thanks.
If you find a Scorpion Stl it will work.

Sure thing , Here you go.
Thanks!
You bet. I hope it works out well for you and you get your ARV soon.
