Let me start by saying: This is one of the highest quality and lightest handguards I've ever put my hands on! I love the design, the finish, the feel, BUT… the mounting system needs work. At the recommended torque, the handguard would spin almost freely. After a bit of testing, I found a dab of red loctite and 30 in-lbs gets it nice and snug.

The fit and finish of this upper is second to none! This thing feels like it could take a beating but is still very light, maybe to do with it not having a forward assist. I never used mine so I didn't have an issue with it, and actually enjoy how slim it makes the rifle feel. Threads were great, pivots pins fit perfectly and snug, BCG slides like butter, included dust cover is nice (preinstalled too). I genuinely only have good things to say about this upper!
Great work ODIN 10/10

Easily one of the coolest and best time saving systems to any custom AR build. I was skeptical at first that it wouldn't hold up, but after ~1000 rounds down range, it's snug as can be. The tube has a very nice finish and is extremely smooth on the inside for a no-grit charging action. I put a Hogue buttstock on it and it's very very snug, not bad snug, but no-rattle-high-quality snug.
I found out you can purchase just the end plate and castle nut for use with other buffer tubes, so I'll be grabbing some of those for my next few builds.
10/10 great job PWS!

I wish the threw in a little diagram labeling everything, or maybe individual bags, but otherwise a great parts kit for the money! Parts looks great, have a nice finish, and have small little logos which I appreciate. Oh and the ambi-safety is a nice touch.
Oh and I did discover that the Magpul BAD lever isn't really compatible with this kits bolt catch.

4.5/5 I purchased this for my 9mm Kalashnikov KR-9, and it is a very nice upgrade over the sloppy stock 5 lbs trigger. Installation was fairly straight forward with the only issue being the shephards hook install (I highly recommend a pair of nice tweezers). I followed the CMC install video and the total install took me ~20 min.
This trigger is incredibly light, easily the lightest and shortest trigger I've ever used. Almost too light. Functions are audible and the reset is tactile, but there's almost no wall to sit on. It's like a millimeter of travel and th..CLICK! It sneaks up on ya! You can feel the trigger get tight but there's almost zero resistance when pulling through the break. Its weird but I kind of like it. It will definitely take some training to get used to.

I've been looking for a ZenitCo stock for my KR-9 for quite some time, but with prices for them hitting ~$1000 in the US...
In comes this guy! Wowee what a price too! (coming from $1000) There aren't many videos on this thing so I was a little skeptical, but this stock is built WELL, like REAL WELL!
It's tight as can be, in a good way. Not stiff, but feels like it could take a decent beating and nothing would loosen up. Its a majority aluminum, with a rubber butt pad, a polymer cheek pad, and steel parts in all the structural spots. It sports the same folding mechanism as most other Midwest Industries stocks and folding buffer tubes do.
Adjustment is quite easy with tons of options, and I find the stock very comfortable on a 9mm PCC. Oh and it also has 3 QD sling points.
I think they hit it out of the ballpark with this one, consider me a fan.
