When you’re at the range, the last thing you want is a malfunction that shortens your trigger time.
Inconveniences, slips, and malfunctions are inevitable when dealing with firearms, but if you come prepared, you’ll increase the time you have behind the gun.
Packed with the right tools, your range bag will keep you ready for anything.
Whether it’s outdoor or indoor, ensure you’ve got all of your range day essentials in your range bag.
Range Bag Essentials | What Tools Should You Keep In Your Range Bag?
A good set of hand tools will always come in handy when spending a day on the range.
Whenever you’re dealing with firearms, you’re dealing with machines with moving parts. Just like a vehicle, this means you’ll occasionally have repairs that require basic tools to complete.
For repairs while out on the gun range, a bit driver and bit set are your best friends.
Most optics, mounts, and accessories are secured by hex or Torx bits, so a good screwdriver set will cover the vast majority of loose parts, having to make adjustments, or swap out optics.

If you want to take it a step further, then some type of torque screwdriver will help you tighten any screws or bolts to the manufacturer’s recommended torque settings.
If your firearms begin to jam or malfunction due to carbon buildup or fouling, you’ll need a quick way to get it functional again. A gun cleaning kit can make the difference between a minor delay and going home when it comes to range-day shenanigans.
At a minimum, you should pack a small bottle of an all-in-one CLP (Clean Lubricate and Protect) gun cleaner.
Pro Tip – If you’re shooting an AR-15 during a long range day or training session, apply a few drops of CLP into the two holes on the bolt carrier group to keep your rifle running in peak condition.
