I was just looking at that set .... also some by Wheeler .... my hunch is the tips for most all of them are made in the same factory in China .... sadly, I haven't found any that can stand up to much pressure

Here you go Jim made in the USA. I get the china stuff I hate it also. I really do try to watch it especially for my Dogs. I wont buy any treats for them Made in China. Those people could care less about the quality of the treats for the animals.

You can find the Grace screwdrivers on Amazon much cheaper. I happen to use a multi bit screwdriver that came with a Harley Touring Bike that I bought many years ago. The Hollow ground bits work great on my guns. Any Hollow Ground driver will work better than any Tapered screwdriver.
Can't blame you one bit for wanting an American made set. I know that's what I prefer.

one of the sets I'm looking at is the Grace USA - Gunsmith 24 Bit Mag Tip Screwdriver Set ====> https://www.amazon.com/Grace-USA-Gunsmi ... driver+set

from what I've seen, Grace doesn't offer many bit driver sets

That looks like a nice set. If I didnt already have a ton of them I'd buy it myself.
