I purchased this TRYBE Defense AR-15 2 or 3 months ago. I've just finished the AR build and went to the range today. This AR was shooting sub-MOA at 50 yards. I could not believe the kind of hits I was making. I finished a Daniel Defense 5 months ago and didn't get groupings like I got today with this TRYBE. The DD build was over $1,400 and it is a very nice AR and one that will last. And I will not be loaning it out.
However, if you are looking for a VERY inexpensive AR, maybe one for friends, family, and neighbors to borrow and shoot, this is the build for you.
Could not be happier.

This is the third TacFire Upper and parts kit I've purchased. After ordering my first kit I was so impressed that I ordered a second. After showing the completed AR-15 to a few friends I've been asked to build one for one of those friends. I received the TacFire kit a few days ago and was once again impressed with the pistol that will cost less than $500 when completed.
Assembling the kit was straight forward and the fit was good.
If you are looking for a $2,000 or even $1,000 AR-15 pistol, keep looking, this is not the kit for you. But if you are looking for inexpensive AR-15 pistol, that you won't mind getting a few scratches on, and may loan out to friends or relatives expecting they might bring it back with scratches or nicks this is the kit for you.
P.S. I suggest before assembling the kit that you give the barrel and bore a good cleaning. The bore was very dirty but once cleaned, it looks great.

A month or so ago I purchased a TacFire AR-15 5.56 Complete Upper receiver w/Pistol Lower Parts Kit. I was so impressed that I ordered a second TacFire Kit. I was not disappointed. The only thing missing in the kit was the "C" clamp for the installation of the dust cover. I think I can overlook this. I just finished the assembly of this second pistol and believe it feels and looks better than the first.
I have not yet fired the first or second pistol but I'm sure they will perform just as good as they look.

This is the first TacFire AR-15 I have ordered. The Order, shipping, and delivery from Optics Planet was par (maybe even better) with any other firearm internet supplier. Once I received the TacFire AR I took inventory and found that all parts advertised in the Optics Planet website were there. Within a week after delivery, I was able to assemble the AR with a stripped lower. The assembly was straightforward, and all parts fit as designed. I have not test fired the weapon, but it appears, feel and 'dry function' as expected. The weapon is a $500 weapon and if there is any expectations that this AR is of the same quality as a 'high-end' AR-15 is reaching. For a $500 weapon I am very pleased with it and in fact I ordered a second TacFire AR-15 5.56 Complete Upper receiver w/Pistol Lower Parts Kit that will be delivered in a couple days. I expect this second order will be as satisfactory as the first.

I have ordered several DD uppers from another sight, and I purchased this DD several weeks ago and cannot be happier with what I received.
For the price I believe it to be a very good deal. Will be putting the upper on a Wilson Combat lower and when completed I will have saved several hundreds of dollars for what would be equivalent.

For the most part, I believe MAGPUL makes some good stuff. However, this is an/the exception. Using the 1/16" hex key to hand tighten the front and rear set screws is nothing but a joke. Don't worry about over tightening the set screw and damaging the Trigger Guard, you won't get that far. There are no threads in the Trigger Guard to assist in setting the set screws. Having the set screws make their own way into the 'plastic' Trigger Guard will not happen.
MAGPUL needs to do one of two things...put threads in the Trigger Guard to assist with the setting of the set screws, or and better yet, go back to the roll pins!
