Odds are, its standard. GoG/Smartparts use standard hex keys exclusively. I just sold my Vibe, so don't quote me, but my guess is that it would be either a 3/8", a 5/16" or a 1/4".

If you don't already have a set, go to a good hardware store and get a full set of hex keys. You can get a good full set for +/- $10-15. (maybe different for you Canadians.)

Using a gun that's been hardly maintained and tossed from person to person more than a village whore is hardly a fair way to compare the marker.

Here's Mike's video:

My guess is it's either the 3/8 or the 5/16"

yeah, you need to get SAE keys. go to canadian tire and they have a close to full set of standard keys in a folding red case. it's like 9 bucks.

I asked the guys at GOG whats up wiht the keys with the markers and they said it's just cheap chinese ones they got to throw in with th emarker.
