    How do you not mar a Magpul Bev block?

    I just used this for the first time on a new build, gonna build another next week. How does everyone avoid marring up the bev block? I definitely put some vice prints in mine, would prefer to avoid that in the future.

    I don’t worry about it

    Assume your talking about vice jaw marks, it doesn’t really effect anything you are assembling, so why sweat it?

    Thick piece of leather works when I want to protect something in vise.

    I have some soft-jaw inserts for my vice. Seem to work well for me.

    Top notch if it runs, it’s sort of an experiment.
    Obviously a significant change from “mil-spec”. I’m building 2 identical rifles, with the goal of shooting the snot out of it with as minimal preventative maintenance as possible on one and keeping round count low on the 2nd for my HD/SHTF rifle. I picked parts that I believed to be a true upgrade or high quality, not to go all Gucci.
