I like the full buffer tube nut coverage over a spanner type wrench. Other than that it would not fill many other needs. Maybe the flash hider but my Gemtechs adapters use a difference size for some reason.

My DPMS wrench does all that and the barrel nut for cheaper. It looks like some guys made a cool looking wrench to try and sell. If they added a braided paracord lanyard to it, they could charge an extra $20.

Yeah, unless some reason I did not see - I'd just get a DPMS wrench. They work well.

Does anyone else make a buffer tube nut that contacts all 4 grooves?

I have the PRI wrench, it's indestructible.

would you recommend an all in one part or a seperate wrench for barrel and castle?

so what is the whole list of tools needed for an AR?
1. a punch for the roll pins
2. hammer for driving pins
3. regular wrench for compensator
4. screw driver (flat/phillips/hex depending on the screw for your pistol grip).
5. wrench for castle nut
6. wrench for barrel nut

that's kind of a lot of tools if you had to do a field strip.

I've found the separate barrel wrenches are higher quality, and easier to work with. The PRI wrench is by far the highest quality of any. You might want to also consider a vice and vice clamp to hold your receiver. I recommend the pin blocks over the plastic containment style.

Add
A good set of T handle allen wrenches. Most aftermarket parts us allen head screws
I also have a few different barrel wrenches. Some of the aftermarket handguards use different barrel nuts with a lower profile. My DD wrench is a laser cut piece of steel with a 1/2" wrenching hole for $10.
If you are going to be doing barrel swaps get a torque wrench that uses is not a dial or click type. Think old school.

They don't break, and you don't have to worry about them seizing up inside/becoming inaccurate.
