Borka Tools is pleased to present our new, 2020 model of adjustable torque driver, aka "Borka Torque Driver" (BTD) and a wide variety of BTD based kits in expanded, combo and customer specified configurations.
New kit concept and important features were professionally reviewed by John McQuay from 8541 Tactical, and the version of the kit, shown in the video, is called "BCK-JM":
Here is another (just released) excellent video specifically about 2020 Borka Combo kit, by Ray from X-Ring channel on Youtube. Kit, which is shown in the video, is called "BCK-RH":
Note: Additional information of mostly technical nature is provided at the end of this post.
Here are the main differences from previously run, by Borka Tools, GBs for our products:
1. Participants of the Group Buy will receive 7.5% discount relative to the retail price.
2. Borka Tools will donate another 7.5% of all proceeds from this GB to support Snipers Hide.
Such arrangement lets GB participants to donate 7.5% of their money (received by Borka Tools) to Snipers Hide. I believe it is one of the practical ways to support Snipers Hide, which all of us like to use so much.
Estimated USPS domestic shipping charges are $9-$15, depending upon the size of your order.
Note: This GB is a one-time opportunity for SH members to purchase 2020 BTD kits on beneficial terms.

Additional information:
2020 Borka Torque Driver (BTD) design is different from our 2015 adjustable torque driver (ATD) design. Instead of "break-over" torque tool design concept of ATD and our original MTD (Multi Torque driver), BTD utilizes our new very unique design (patent pending), which provides better ergonomics, accuracy and consistency of BTD in comparison to ATD. Method of torque adjustment remains the same and there are barely any weight and dimensional differences between BTD and ATD. The main design difference is that BTD has no pivoting handle. BTD utilizes short stroke crossbar, which, when desired torque value is reached, slides 1/8" in the direction of torque application and generates an easily detectable sound "click". When torque tool "clicks", it is very certain that torque tool performed just one complete cycle of torque application. When torque tool "slips" without generating any "click", it is a very different story.
Another change, related to BTD, is the implementation of the highly practical and very easy to use torque adjustment range from 10 inch-lbs. to 70 inch-lbs. And if there is a need for torque application of less than 10 inch-lbs. or more than 70 inch-lbs., BTD kit can include Borka Tools PTL (Precision Torque Limiter), for example PTL0004 (4 inch-lbs.) for NF ZeroStop turret screws or PTL0100 (100 inch-lbs.) for some of the NF scope mounts crossbolts, or even both of these PTLs. PTL0080 (80 inch-lbs.) for DT SRS/HTI/MDR barrel changes and PTL0090 (90 inch-lbs.) for ARC Barloc are also available. As the result, you always have an option to configure your Borka Combo Kit (BCK) so that it will work for many different applications. When PTL is integrated into BCK, it will cost less in comparison to the same PTL, purchased as a separate item.
Borka Torque Driver (BTD) and Cleaning Rods (ECR and MCR) are made in the U.S.A. by Borka Tools and Pro-Shot Products. Accessories, such as bits sets, sockets, extensions, ratchets and Maxpedition pouches are custom made in Taiwan. All our kits, without exception, are assembled and quality controlled in the U.S.A.
FYI, Maxpedition pouch, which we use for BTD kits, is a very slightly modified Maxpedition E.D.C. Pocket Organizer (manufacturer item # 0246), and it is readily available for purchase from many online retailers. This pouch is suitable for packaging of currently available and future combo and custom kits. Our custom TAB GEAR pouch is more compact and works well for selected kits having mostly fixed configurations.
Take note that our latest BTD design is fully expected to remain the same for the next 15+ years.
