  1. That looks useful and if you have an AR you need something to service it with. An AR will go south on you before you can say “Don’t do it!”

    • Pre 2007 maybe. Only issues I ran into were mag related and then from the magazine version of the 80’s with the green follower. Much like previous military rifles the refinement process took a bit but got it reliable as well as for it’s derivatives. Nice to have the tools but haven’t needed them for thousands of rounds through the M4 and barely hear about anyone having real issues lately.

      • SAFE, I’ve been issued/owned the AR platform since 1979. I currently own Colt, Palmetto State and Bravo Company ARs. Same issues I had with the M16A1 in 79.

        • Don’t know what to tell you there, issued and various mystery meat builds ran like a clock with Magpul magazines or tan follower equivalents so long as you clean every so often.

        • Come to think about it the M16a1 was utterly non-existent in the armory and we only had 2 M16a2s so only really had any experience with M16a4 and M4a1 which could jam up with older mags but with anything current (circa 09 or later) you really had to be doing something wrong. As to mismatched parts I have seen Aero, Bushmaster, CMMG, FN, and S&W so maybe it’s whatever standard one is using.

        • Debbie, no one was talking to you. Just because you can’t afford an HK or Galil doesn’t make them inferior to your kitchen table built ARs.

      • Safe, you have to understand. My bar for reliability and durability was set by HK and Galil. I own those also. No AR, I don’t care who built it, can reach them.

        • Ah well seeing as how those essentially don’t exist in relevant formats up my way that does make it a difficult comparison.

        • gadsten…your problem is you do not know when to cease trying to raise the bar by utilizing hot air.

        • never seen an hk or galil outshoot an ar at the range
          at any distance
          never talked to anyone who owned one
          who really thought they were worth the price they paid

    • gadsten…yours yes mine no. What is described as extractor tools for the AR-15 and AR-308 are more like ejector removal tools. An extractor removal and installation tool for both requires one punch. Even with what appears to be ejector compression tools the price is way steep, still a nice kit for the road which is never the proper place for repairs…reason to do your homework.

    • That’s why I prefer a Ruger Mini-14, an M1A or an HK-91.

      After the nukes start detonating, I’ll still be shooting while the TactiCoolFools and Feds are trying to fix their weapons.

  3. $368.00…that’s pricey, a lot of ‘name pricing’ there like Apple Phones a part of the price is the name Apple. It may not be ‘fit it sticks’ stuff but one can do the same thing with discreet components for much cheaper with same or better quality.

  5. Hmmm . . . Every AR I’ve assembled from scratch, was accomplished with Vise Grips, a couple finishing nails, an upholstery hammer and a roll of tape.

    Saved $400 ($368 plus tax)

  7. You need tools for your revolver too! If you shoot 357 mag or 38 + p ammo? The screws holding your wheel gun together will start to back out.
    Yeah, the “gun community” doesn’t talk about that very much.
    Competition shooters understand this.

    • 1ofMine revolving gunms was doing great until I used DriveMXD Lubricant. Loosend every screw the gunm had.

    • To be brutally honest it will be a while before I shoot any revolver enough to worry about that and even then would be reloading for a while to get there. I do take what I have down as far as I can figure out for the moment while cleaning and try to learn more each time. With that said going to look into the plastic coated lead bullets for cost efficiency longer term now that I have the defense loads dialed in and stocked up.

  8. the ak field armorers field kit
    fits in the back of a pickup truck
    and like everything else ak
    costs at least 2x as much
    to get basically the same thing
