Brownells USA Nice, but missing important tool 16/06/2014

I mostly just bought it for the vice blocks because this kit is only slightly more than the blocks set alone, but there are some other helpful tools included. A few of the tools are not something you'd generally buy or really need (can make do with normal hand tools), but have come in handy on my two builds.

My one complaint is that it does not include a castle-nut/stock wrench for the buffer tube. This is often built into the armorer's tool, but this one does not have that feature. It's my fault because I didn't think to check, I just assumed a "critical tool kit" would include the tool to tighten or loosen this unique fastener. The armorer's tool also came out of it's bag with some minor surface rust on it, it did not appear to have been given any oil coating from the factory.

Definitely recommended

Brownells USA Perfect Kit! 21/01/2014

The entire kit works great, just as it's supposed to. Makes everything about putting your AR together much easier.
