This is a pretty good kit. Unfortunately the included hammer only has provisions for barrel nuts that have a delta ring or barrel nuts with 6 pins with 2 pins side by side. Unfortunately, it doesn't include a 3 pin barrel nut. This kit worked great for building the lower, but once I got the upper on the vice block I was disappointed to find out this didn't have the wrench in it I needed. For other people's reference it was a barrel nut for a SPIKES TACTICAL SAR3 HANDRAIL. It's a 3 pin wrench. The torque wrench is of a beam design which is bare bones basic and for the price a click type torque wrench should have been included.
Pros:
- Decent set with most of what you would need
Cons:
- Not all AR15 barrel nut configuration are included, very basic torque wrench included
Best Used for:
- Building most ArlR15 rifles
Would recommend: Yes

I immediately upgraded my AR-15 and used it for maintenance and cleaning. I am excited to have it and highly recommend it to AR enthusiasts.

It is very handy and comes with all the tools needed. The onky down side ice come up wit is the punches have a tendency to bend when used.

This kit is awesome! But I feel like the name is mis leading. The people who will get the most out of this is likely going to be first time builders with 0 AR/Armorers tools. Master armorers or people that have been working on AR's for years will likely have most of these in a brand or form they prefer. But this kit will make a first build much easier and you dont have to worry about not having the right tool.... its there.
Pros:
- Most if not all the tools you will need
Best Used for:
- assembling an AR15(ar10 not compatible)
Would recommend: Yes

I’ve have used the Drivers And Starters On one lower Sense I purchased, They Are Perfect I even got a smaller one stuck inside my Bolt Catcher Hole, I got ruff With It Not to ruff, it handled the Wiggles And force good No bends no stretch Of course I could’ve stretched Them If I wanted But I just Beat the other end once It Took some strength But Its crazy how people cry about how cheap they made, wtf are you guys Working On fossils or A FlaK Gun…
Pros:
- easy to store
- It Helps With Everything On A Ar15 But Might Take some Instruction For people new in the gunsmithing Hobby
- Its Organized Less Cleaning In my opinion
- The Mobility
Cons:
- You Have To Purchase The Real Avid Mini Hammer Separate, the big hammer WILL Scratch the side of your lower When doing Bolt Catch
- Bolt Catch Pin Starters Are Separate
- Hammer To Big
Would recommend: Yes

I recently visited optics planet looking for the armorers lots. Found it on sale cheaper than every one else and I got a wonderful 5% off coupon. Still made the purchase cheaper than anyone. Part exactly as ordered. Downloaded the app and will be doing business more often.

I have worked on my AR15’s with miscellaneous tools in the past. Always looking for the tools I needed in multiple gun bags. Now that I have the Avid Armorer’s Master kit, I have all my tools in one place. Until I saw this kit on Optics Planet, I would have not known there was a kit with all the right tools in one place. Thank you Avid and thank you Optics Planet.
Pros:
- Nice Case
- Great items
- i get to work on my own weapons
- inventive peices
Would recommend: Yes

Pros:
- quality, everything in one kit, price

This kit is amazing! I’ve been watching it for a year and finally pulled the trigger. I am very much a novice, but having the proper tools gives me a huge boost of confidence in working on my M&P15. The complete kit, tools and the book, really are great!

Good tool selection, well made tools and solid carrying case. Saves money buying kit vs individual tool.
