Worth It. Bite The Bullet and Order It
I'm building my first AR- I saw a lower for sale really cheap and impulsively bought it, and then started researching and ordering all the other parts. Since I'm not all that mechanically inclined, and since the thought of having the gun blow up in my face doesn't intrigue me, I sought out some "exp...

Not what I thought
I'm new to AR's and building them first and foremost. Before buying it I watched the video on the product. If I had it to do all over again I would just buy the Gun rest only. Here's why:
The punches are really cheap and I bent the smallest one the first use.
The starter punches are so deep whe...

Armorers Vise Broke As Expected
All the other tools seem to be decently made however as expected the armorers vise is utter garbage. It broke on first use. It was finicky out of the box and definitely not suitable when applying any type of torque on the gun. the bag is also a bit small for anyway for the vise to fit. when i first pulled everything out and put enerything back in the vise must come out last and go in first. which can be a hassle when you only need a few tools instead of all of them.
Pros:
- great starter kit
Cons:
- None
Best Used for:
- Light work
Would recommend: Yes
Useless armorers wrench
I've built 3 ARs after buying this and the armorers wrench has not fit a single one of the barrel nuts. First was a Centurion Arms Handguard, second and third were a BKF M-LOK handguard. All using different sized nuts that were much larger than the wrench provided. It also did not include a breaker bar. Standard procedure for a barrel install is to torque it down then use a breaker bar to loosen then retorque again. The bag is neat but not worth spending this much money on for extra eous stuff you may not need. Some of the cleaning brushes I've used repeatedly but I've also ended up buying cleaning kits for all 3 guns because the included items are not sufficient. The copper tube solvent bore cleaner or whatever is pretty useless, I bought a bore snake and a cleaning rod instead. Most of this seems to be designed to be used on ARs without free floated handguards. Honestly just buy your tools piecemeal when you need them. And save money.
Pros:
- vise blocks
- punch kit
- torque wrench
- useful carrying bag
- armorer stand is adequate for quickly breakdown
- cleaning brushes
Cons:
- "universal" armorers wrench that doesn't work with everything
- bolt catch punchs have their rubber destroyed quickly
- bore guide useless gimmick
- no carbon scraper
- no mag vise block
Best Used for:
- ARs WITHOUT free floated handguards
Would recommend: No
glad I chose this company for purchase
I was hesitant to purchase from this site as it seemed to have a number of bad reviews related to shipping times. I'm glad I went for it. I ordered package on 11/29, received on 12/6. Very happy with that time frame. I received both text and email updates on order processing and shipping updates. Also it was a better price than other shops I was looking at. 5 stars all the way
Pros:
- fast shipping
- low price
- text and email updates on process and shipping
Cons:
- no complaints
Would recommend: Yes
Comprehensive armorers kit
This is pretty much everything that you would need to build and maintain an AR platform. Great product. If I could change one thing it would include brass punches instead of steel.
Would recommend: Yes
For a newbie like myself it s perfect
For a newbie like myself it s perfect! I am able to work on my AR without paying a gunsmith for the items I know I can do myself. May never use everything in here but most is very useful on a regular basis.
Would recommend: Yes
Best price
I could buy the exact same armorers kit from any number of places but Optics Planet had the best price, it was in stock and free shipping. Not to mention they shipped it right out. They also included a discount coupon code that I’ve already used for another order from them. Best price plus discount on top.
Pros:
- Price
- Free shipping
- In stock
Cons:
- I would have preferred if it had been shipped in more discrete packaging. It came in the manufacturers brightly colored and pictured covered box. Plain cardboard would have been preferred.
Would recommend: Yes
What every AR builder needs
This kit has everything you can possibly need to build an AR with the exception of long handled Allen wrenches. Once the kit arrived i was able to quickly and efficiently build out multiple platforms. The weapon mat is a good size and helps to save the kitchen table or any other surface you may be working on.
Would recommend: Yes
A must have for AR gunsmithing
This kit has the majority of all items you’d need for AR work. From proper assembly to cleaning there is pretty much everything you need included. I have had mine for a little while and have used it on a handful of builds. The other nice thing is at the end of the day, all the tools fit neatly back in the case making it easy clean up.
Pros:
- value
- portability, ease of use
Cons:
- None
Would recommend: Yes

Awesome system of tools! Love it! Has all the tools you need to do your AR build. This set helped start building with confidence. Having the right tool for the job makes for a better finished product.
Would recommend: Yes
Ultimate Smith Kit
This kit is amazing! you don't need a much after this. perfect for getting started on builds. The only thing that you will need past this is a nice Allen krey set or "hex" kit. I was very impressed with the detent pin removal tool and the shaved roll pin installer punch.
Would recommend: Yes
