Why? Did you buy the DVD to learn screwdriver etiquette?

I've talked to Ken about this. You don't notice that the tips have been ground so the screwdriver does fit the screws. Plus, the guns shown are demo guns and have been disassembled and reassembled by novices and for demos on a regular basis, none of the screws is tight enough to be an issue.

You might also consider the guy has been doing this for more than three decades, most of it as a S&W warranty center. If screwdrivers were an issue for him, he'd change in a heartbeat.

But, if you're doing a few guns as a hobby, or even small time gunsmithing, you're going to be safer with a hollow ground set. If you order the AGI full course with the tools, you get sent a Grace screwdriver set.
