I love those kits, I got one a little over a year ago and they’re an asset to your build. I recommend them to/for anyone who builds AR’s.

Wife picked one up for me today. Love it. Quality stuff.

Can’t wait to see this in action with your future builds👍🏽

I had bought almost all these tools, when this kit came out...😭. But I highly recommend there tools. Most all of them are multi taskers, well made and very well designed!

Great review! I've got the mag well block and the bench block, they worked out phenomenal on my last build. Really like the thought and engineering that went into their tools, pretty in disposable tools.

Their customer service is among the best. I ordered a kit, one of the buckles was jacked up, I emailed them and they overnighted a new one, no questions asked. I've done 3 assemblies in the past 2 months and the kit has been perfect. I use a different torque wrench and geissele gas pin punches, but this kit is definitely of great quality.

This kit works great i used it for my fist build it has everything you need and it comes with great instructions the hammer wrench works great a good deal

Very nice find, Will. I'm gettin one-a-these! Thanks for the review.

Great video. I've got about 10 or 12 builds with mine. The more I use it the more features I find.

I have this kit and it works out great!

1 thing I love about your channel is you show good stuff. The only problem I have is when it comes to tool I will say " I don't know what it is or what it's for but I need it". I get myself in trouble all the time for that

Put pressure on the “ejector” not the extractor. This will allow you to remove the ejector so you can use you bolt to check headspace.

Good video. A couple things of note. The bench block has a magnetized bottom so when you punch out a roll pin it doesn’t go flying. It sticks under the bottom. Also the twisty thing on the bench block is for the ejector instead of the extractor. The reaction rod upper holder has three pins in the red cap. The center one is used just as explained in the video but the two on the other side are also removable and are placed into the holes on the flat part so you can position the upper in any direction in the vice. The lower vice block is the best one I’ve seen yet. When it’s tightened in the mag well it holds it solid. There is not “slop”. A couple things that would have made the kit better get rid of the “D” ring tool and add some crows feet for other barrel nuts and a breaker bar, get rid of two of the plastic picks and add a couple metal ones, add a couple common hex wrenches for gas blocks and hand grips etc, change out the cheap torque wrench for a click type, and add a spanner wrench, also add a gas block alignment tool. Otherwise it’s a great kit. Wait for it to go on sale. Usually runs around $250, got mine by joining a buyers club and with a 10% discount I got it for $150.

I've had my eye on this kit for awhile. It almost has everything you need. I was really disappointed when I saw it doesn't have allen wrenches. Got to have those for the gas block and trigger guard.

Thanks for the review man I've had this kit on my radar, I think I'm sold

I picked up one of these with my Trump Bucks

I was an armorer in the USMC (2111) and worked on thousands if not tens of thousands of M16’s. There were only a handful of M16 specific tools. Most of them were not even daily use. I think my most used tools were pin punches and a small brass hammer. As I watched this video I was struck by the fact that the same thought kept entering my mind: “ahhh that’s neat and could be handy.” If you have money to burn and space to store this kit, I guess go for it.

Exactly what I’m looking for. Thanks for posting.

Great video. I’ve been looking at this kit. Thanks for the tool breakdown cause I’m a noob when it comes to gunsmithing

I want this kit. I’ve bought some other Real Avid tools such as upgraded punches and I love them.

Excellent review !👍 Very Nice kit !🔧

MSR Arms is awesome, I got mine from them and have used 3 other times. They were cheaper then Oplanet and Brownells too.

Love my kit. I've used it to change so many parts I can't even count

Great kit, exact one I use, def a lot of stuff you don’t typically “need” but I love how convenient it is and the only need would be a screwdriver for your grip and a vise. 😎 (oh and possibly a specific Allen wrench depending on your build)

Very nice kit, but they are forgetting a big area in modern ARs and that would be the gas block! A couple things that come to mind is a tool lining up the gas port as well as a tool for dimpling.. Other than that the kit is almost perfect!

They are a little pricey, but this in combination with their vise makes an amazing work area.

Oh and I bought this kit brand new for $190ish at some place online (sorry forgot the name) when it was on sale.

Would have been more effective if you had the part the tool would be used on at the same time.

Jesse Garcia I don’t think this kit is meant for the everyday consumer. It’s meant for people who make a living in the gun industry. The shop I Smith at, we put together 1 or 2 AR builds a week. So for someone like me it would easily pay for itself. Also it’s nice having everything in one compact kit rather than 8 different sets of tools in different drawers. But yes, for the average gun owner this is overpriced.

A whole bunch of crap you dont even need . tape , channel lock plyers,armors wrench and a card of some sort . Is all you need .maybe a drift punch .... Maybe

Can I use this kit to work on other firearms?

The kit does not contain everything you need. You will at the very least need a set of hex keys, if for nothing else other than the grip screw depending on the build. Also, there is no either/or for polymer vs nylon. Nylon IS a polymer, and most "polymer" you will encounter in firearms is a nylon. There is no specific material that is "polymer". It is not a material that exists on its own. A polymer is a type or class of materials that includes everything from Jello to the nylon on your rifles and maybe the soles of your shoes. The term polymer as its used in firearms is merely a marketing tactic to avoid using the term plastic. Most plastics are in fact polymers, however most polymers are in fact plastics, and ALL the polymers used in firearms are plastics. Its generally Nylon 6/6 with a glass fill of some percentage. There are some specific brands/composition nylons that are used that can change the characteristics, but they are STILL NYLON, and they are STILL PLASTIC. You can call them polymer to make yourself feel better about having plastic on a rifle if you want, but its still plastic. I know this was referring to the tools, but you should be aware of the lack of difference.

I prefer to have a hammer for the necessary task at hand mainly because the quality of those multi tool/hammer things is generally crap and has too much weight for what you need.

The quality over all of the kit is kinda janky. A few tools are nice and helpful. Overall all its cheaply made. Would make a good range kit. But if You are serious about building rifles I would buy tools that are better quality.
