Good value but worthless storage and ID 26/08/2016

So the number and quality of taps & bits that are commonly used on firearms definitely make this a good value. However, the storage is absolutely useless. Several others have gone off about this and I can't blame them. The taps are marked the drill bit sizes are not. They don't hold positively in the case, they just lay in there. The charts you see on the inside lid have nothing to do with where they fit in the case. I ended up buying a bunch of small storage tubes and marking those with the sizes. It looks like they decided to do an in house kit and picked up some sort of generic box from somewhere.

Definitely recommended

Great set 11/06/2016

Slightly recommend

It's Okay..... 06/08/2015

Okay so I'm not an expert gunsmith nor do I frequently write reviews but I got be honest this was a little disappointing.

Number 1) The case is no help in organization as is. Its not a tight fit for the bits and taps so the minute you tip it more than 35 degrees all of the bits and taps are in one corner and your going to be re-organizing them. I fixed this annoyance by adding a chunk of foam. But it was a bummer considering the organized case is why I bought it.

Number 2) On the topic of organization, I was disappointed when this 34 piece kit showed up in about 34 pieces. Now I get it, it's not a huge deal but if you buy this just know you'll spend the first half hour taking bits and taps out of tiny bags and putting them in the box.

Number 3) For my particular case I ended up using carbide bits for drilling the holes. So be aware that this kit isn't probably what you want for heavy duty jobs.

Number 4) for the gunsmith wannabes like me out there, I would recommend starting with the bare minimum of bits and taps and getting a good fixture, vise, or something to align holes. All the bits in the world won't matter if you can't get the holes to be where you want them. Spend money on fixturing. I had a cheap slide vise and that wasn't helpful.

Number 5) The taps don't necessarily break out nice and easy as advertised. Maybe I was doing it wrong (how you hit a tap wrong to break it, I'm not sure) but I ended up drilling the tap out. I cannot properly express how rotten of an idea that was. I don't recommend it.

Number 6) Another note on the case; you're going to break bits, taps, etc. You're going to buy more and you'll probably buy two or three of the most common taps when they break, and none of the less common ones. You may end up buying multiple drill bits for different projects; carbide, HHS, etc. All of this to say the case has one spot for each implement of each size. So if you're serious about drilling and tapping you're going to out grow the case in a hurry.

Summary: Nice taps, drill bits aren't anything special, case is kinda cool but ends up being really cheesy. I would say this is not a rip off though because the overall price is roughly what you would pay for all the components individually. Just know what you're getting is not necessarily what you may expect (I know that's shocking for the internet.

I would not recommend this kit to the general user. I would recommend this kit to a professional machinist who wanted to dabble in gunsmithing; in that case they know what they're doing, they have access to more drill bits of different material and sizes, and it gets them all the basics for a good price.
