Since I wanted a tool that is meant to be a workhorse, fancy construction materials don’t mean anything to me. Let me take that back, its the best for me. Kind of a lot of flex when you’re really torqueing down with the bit driverĪll in all when stacked up to it’s competitors, the Gerber MP1-AR in my opinion is the best. Still cant find a use for the included weird sheepsfoot blade (Probably just me though) Works with your cleaning rod or Otis Ripcord (my favorite)

The bit driver is long enough to tighten/ loosen the grip on your AR without attaching an extension The needle nose pliers make tackling tiny cumbersome tasks a breeze There’s nothing worse than having to use your other hand to open the plier head. As a matter of fact they are just that considering how I used them to pull trim nails and also cut them with ease The Ergonomics/ how it feels in the hand This reason alone is why I think the Gerber beats out the competitors but it’s definitely not without its faults. With a tool like this its going to be in your hand a lot so it better fit like your favorite pair of jeans or you and Mr. hand blister will be getting a less than favorable introduction. This for me is one of the MP1-AR’s greatest selling points. When I finally got around to giving it a closer look, what I quickly realized after picking it up is it feels really nice in your hand, so much so that you wont want to put it down. However like most people I’m guilty of going off of looks and since I didn’t see any titanium, FDE or intriguing tool protruding the outline of the handle, I pushed it off to the bottom of my priorities. But as Momma says, don’t judge a book by its cover or in this case what you see when they’re sitting next to one another. That’s not to say it lacks good looks but when compared to the striking lines of the Leatherman MUT or the sultry G10 scales of the Multitasker, Gerber could’ve done a little more to make it more physically alluring through its vacuum clamshell packaging. Truth be told, its not a tool whose appearance jumps out at you.

So how does it compare to the aforementioned AR multitools? You can guarantee Gerber knew exactly who they were gunning for with this latest launch of the MP1-AR and its those exact two tools.
