When i purchased this product and received it I thought seem to be a nice set for the money, however its junk the first bit i tried to use snapped off and it wasnt even under a great amount of pressure! Bit #502 so with that being said i am going to save up my money and buy a better set. Thinking it had the weaver name it might be a reliable set, but then finding out where it was manufacturedsaid it all. I"ve been seeing the reviews and it seems as if i"m not the only one breaking bits, with that being said its a lesson learnt. I will now go get a high quality set that says Made In Usa and I should have in the first place.
Cons:
- junk bits chrome coming off screwdriver handle
Would recommend: No

OpticsPlanet is showing that I purchased the Compact Entry-Level Kit, but I actually purchased the medium sized 77-bit version.
I have been heavily using this kit for almost 6 years now for gunsmithing and guitar repair. It is super helpful and I haven't ever needed to turn to another kit for bits for the aforementioned purposes. Also worth noting is that the bits in my 77-bit kit conveniently fit in my Weaver gunsmithing torque wrench. The bits have all been high enough quality for my uses and I haven't had problems with any of them.
My only gripe regarding this item is the storage case it comes in. All Weaver gunsmithing kits come in injection molded green plastic storage cases with plastic hinges and plastic snap clasps that hold them shut. Plastic hinges and snap clasps are cheap and are prone to break when used frequently.

This is a good set for the price. But I wish they would have listed the bit types and sizes. There's three torx bits. Like six Phillips and square bits. Then 90% of the bits are straight screwdriver!!!!!! I mean do we really need 50 straight screwdriver bits. Like I said good little set but I'll be changing out some bits for more useful ones as I work and realize what I need is not there.

real handy when working on my weapons and works well for optics mounting, and cleaning. I had a pin on ar-10 that didn't want to stay where it was supposed to, so looking for a tool forgot I had this, saw it and thought "Duhh" what I need was right on my bench. fixed the problem.

This has proven to be very handy - sort of like taking the work bench along to the range. It has bits to fit any screws correctly. The little anvil works well for knocking out pins. I carry it with me in my range bag.

This kit is a great value for its price. It has everything a hand reloader may need to adjust a scope or firearm. The case keeps everything together and a bit should never get misplaced if every hole is filled after the work is complete.
Would recommend: Yes

item was back ordered so i waited for a while. first thing i noticed was the huge selection of Flathead bits. Only used a few times but am impressed by quality of bits to fit screw correctly. Glad i bought the deluxe unit well worth the difference in cost. Highly recommended.
Pros:
- huge selection of correctly fitting bits
Would recommend: Yes

After years of working from cobbled together partial sets of gunsmithing and hardware screwdrivers and bit sets, I finally sprung for a nice set. This one has done everything I've needed thus far. I got the Mid set because I already had all the extras the larger set had. And like most everything else I buy, I did hours of research before my purchase and this one seemed to be the most popular.

Would have earned 5 stars if it had a larger range in Torx Bits. Great kit for the beginner to the advanced. Strong, durable and well fit storage case. Especially like the Magnetic Bit Driver - makes handling those small screws so much easier. I use it not only for all my firearms but also household projects. Especially like the fact that everything you need in 1 kit as opposed to multiple kits. Highly recommend this product.
Pros: Everything you need in 1 Kit
Cons: Limited range of Torx Bits
Would recommend: Yes
