There are a couple of multi-tools I'm seeing coming out for AR maintenance, which of these are worth looking at?
Gerber eFECT military maintenance tool

Nice links man, any word if they're going to make a Samson tool for the MIAD or MOE;)
that multi tasker is bad ass. the gerber looks funky and mostly useless, the samson is neat but i dont use an a2 grip. i may pick up a multitasker and do a review on it. or not we'll see.
You could buy a vice, barrel wrench, stock wrench, & action block for that kind of money. I simply cannot see paying a premium for tools that still probably can't do the jobs you want to do with them NEARLY as effectively.
A better bargain would be a $20 Swiss Army Knife or maybe even a $80 Multi-tool that could do 3X as much.
i have a leatherman wave, i think the idea here is for a field kit. i didnt see a price on the multitasker though so it may be to rich for my blood. looks good though
MSRP on the multitasker is $65, i believe. for that price, it's not bad. it's a bit heavy though - i have one and will be doing a writeup on my site in the future after using it more.
my favourite multi-tool is the older leatherman wave, which i have with my most of the time. however, it does have its limitations when it comes to AR-specific uses.
