What tool(s) do you guys bring to the range with you? Do you carry a specific multi tool, or a series of tools?
 
Gerber Multi-Plier 600

@11B CIB can speak to what he used his for for a few years...

I used to carry my Leatherman MUT when shooting rifles, it has a couple torx.

Also Husky (Home Depot?) has/had a little racheting T handle that came with a decent assortment of 1/4 hex drive bits in a smallish case.

Or find a racheting screwdriver with handle storage and stock to your liking.

The ratcheting screw driver is a good idea, I have one for the house I'm sure they make one w hex bits

Oh yeah, love em. Have Snap-On, Mac, and a chinese one or two. Packing the handle full of bits is very convenient.

Yeah it's easy to grab when doing things around the house, maybe I'll just get another one and fill it w misc bits on my rifles
 
With the exception of a bench vise my Midway Range Box allows me to do almost anything in the field that I can do in the shop... That is after adding a bunch of tools beyond the basic box as it comes from Midway...
 
Leatherman, small adjustable wrench, alan set, screwdrivers, squib rod, glock and AR front sight tools all ride around in my range bag.

On a few occasions, I didn't have to bring any tools...

They were already at the range when I arrived.

Luckily I don't have that problem all too often, but its usually pretty quiet when I go. surprisingly for the most part Saturday afternoon isn't too busy
 
I usually throw my "armorer's bag" in the car. It has got just about anything I would need to do a field repair or adjustment.
 
When I go to the range, I never bring any tools.
I leave them all in the shop, which happens to be right next to my range. :p
 
I've assembled a tool kit in a little maxpedition bag that I stick in a big pocket in my range bag.

It's actually got a ton of stuff you can't see like batteries for all my optics, zip ties, C-clamp, extra AR/CZ parts, springs etc.

One of the nice things about it is I can also just grab that and take it with me. Or hand it to someone without digging thru range bag looking for a tool.
