Now out-of-business Armi San Marco; made nice percussion pistols. Maybe they got bought out by one of the other companies?

If you just want a few, specifically for those pistols, you won't have to spend a fortune. I'd tell any new young man, if you're interested in guns, invest in a GOOD set of screwdrivers while young! Some places sell sets just for the Colt SAA, etc.

If brownell is sold out either find another reputable company or wait until Brownell has them. I can;t give you a number of how many messed up screws I have seen just because a screwdriver that didn't fit the screws were used. Cheap screwdrivers do more harm than good.

Re: screw driver set. I ordered a wheeler off amazon for ??? $29.00 ?? works perfect. More bits than I could likely ever use.
Re: ASM, my lil 1849 .31 pocket is cool as heck ASM. BUT for a good time on a long lonely boring weekend just try to find a nipple. 3 week search (including sending one to TOW for no match) and finally a members neighbor made me one for like $30.00. Excellent gun though, one of my favorites. FUN
but they can bounce back at ya. Never tried 4f yet (cuz it will kill me) but will do so soon and you can read the Obit to see how that went.

As long as you're shopping for a screwdriver set, you might want to add this one for your percussion revolvers. Very handy to take to the range/field. Fits all the screw slots for the Colt SAA and percussion revolvers I've tried. Haven't tried it on a Remington. But will likely work with those too. Works with an original R&S revolver also. You can usually find them for sale on Ebay for about $10.00

I’ve had a Brownell’s set for 40+ years. I use a drum in a Dremel to narrow blades for the Brownell’s if I need a narrower blade. The small drum or wheel allows you to create a hollow ground blade that is unlikely to slip.

Over the years I have bought many screwdriver bit and handles from Brownells. Since I work on unmentionable firearms also, along with muzzle loaders, the set I have fits my needs perfectly. Buy quality once, cry once. Buy cheap and........
