Screwdrivers
Torque wrench 1/2" or use adapter
Hex key set
Barrel wrench
Retaining ring pliers
Molly grease
Small hammer


There may be more tools like wood blocks or a special upper holder but I think that covers the tools. So factor the cost of tools you may need to buy into your cost as well.
Hum, I've never needed these to assemble an AR.

You really don't need a vise either but, it definitely helps.
