The Swiss Army Knife of Opticians.
Western’s engineering solution that saves you time six ways: punches out hinge and eyewire screws, re-establishes a screwdriver slot in a damaged screw head, flares or peens the screw end and can replace a hinge screw with a QuikFix Rivet.
The Shootout arms you with the most power available in a hand tool. The patented lever mechanism takes a gentle squeeze and transforms it into the controlled power needed to easily eject broken screws and reduce damage to the barrel.
The Shootout is simple to align and comfortable to grip even for the smallest hands. Kit includes precision hand tool and complete set of punches and anvils. 8 5/8" long. US Patent #6,006,410.

Insider Info from Joshua
"The head tool buyer for a very large chain came to me one day at a trade show and asked what we had for punching out screws. We had nothing. For the remainder of the show I asked our clients if punching out screws was a 'thing'. Sure enough, it happens more often than I imagined. Building a better solution to what was available was the engineering challenge. Making it reliable and user friendly came after several evolutions. The additional features making it a 'multi-tool' came from customer input."


"One of the products we manufacture is the Hot Box frame warmer and we use it often to test certain eyewear materials. Some of these materials need to get very hot before they can take an adjustment. This really gets tough on the fingers. To help save our fingers and yours, I wanted to come up with a handy and easy solution. By the way, The Temple Tamer is the first product we designed and made using 3D printing."
