Is this a army man gun or a marine man gun? I am joining the navy and want a marine guy gun because it is better which one do i get?
nite f on May 18, 2019
BEST ANSWER: Do America and the entire military a favor; don't enlist.
Can this item be ship to California?
Bill P on May 3, 2019
BEST ANSWER: The end product needs to meet state standards. The best approach is to move out of California to a free state.
Is this rifle kit complete and ready to shoot other than needing a magazine and ammunition?
MIKE R on May 31, 2019
BEST ANSWER: Realy ? Look at the picture does it look ready to shoot
Is this kit already put together?
William C on May 21, 2019
BEST ANSWER: It wouldn’t really be a “kit” if it were, right?
What is the difference between chrome moly steel and chrome moly vanadium?
Joel C on May 7, 2019
BEST ANSWER: The Vanadium. You don't need to worry if it is or isn't since it makes no difference in how long the barrel lasts or anything else. Don't let a marketing zombies blow smoke up your rear. The vanadium is added to cut costs in the manufacturing end of things not the qualities of the end product properties. Get a chrome lined or Nitrided barrel, which this is, and you will be OK
Does this kit have to be shipped to an FFL since it has a stripped lower?
Kelsey H on May 4, 2019
BEST ANSWER: It does not need to be shipped to an FFL. It includes every piece to assemble the rifle besides a stripped lower (the only item that ever requires an FFL). I suggest buying one of those locally to avoid fees.
Is this a complete M4 rifle when completing the lower?
Rich.Fore on Apr 27, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Yes it is. It’s a very nice rifle. Brownells has a very nice detailed article on how to assemble it. You might want to order an extra set of detents and springs. They can get away very quickly. The first one I assembled took a day. I had to make three trips to get extra detents and springs. The second one I assembled took two hours. Enjoy.
Never built one before, is it difficult for a first-timer?
MakeANoise on May 8, 2019
BEST ANSWER: Not at all just pull up a YouTube video and it will be a piece of cake
Can a low profile gas block work on this kit,and if so do u have to change fore gaurd ?
Chris P on May 8, 2019
BEST ANSWER: You can install a low-profile block and keep the existing furniture. There is no real good reason to do so. Seeing the front sight in your optic really is not a problem.
If I want to replace handguard with picatinny mloc type, what other parts would be needed? Can I use existing gas block?
Dima Prok on May 9, 2019
BEST ANSWER: You need the two piece handguard.

Do these kits come with assembly instructions?
Harold B on Oct 1, 2019
BEST ANSWER: It does not. However, there are tons of instructional videos and guides online. I just put this kit together today using a video from YouTube. My first build ever and it took me less than an hour, and the only tools I had were a hammer, screw driver, and socket set
What stripped lower would you suggest for this kit?
Cliff T on Jul 27, 2019
BEST ANSWER: Any of the palmetto state armory lowers they are all real good and the have a wide assortment so you can customize your fife to your personality.
Will this come with a magazine?
Steve B on May 22, 2019
BEST ANSWER: No, it doesn't. Add the Sig Romeo 5t with 10 Pmags deal that PSA has right now to complete this build and you will be won't be disappointed!

I can buy this kit and then but a striped lower to complete the rifle is that correct and which lower should I get?
tom M on Jun 2, 2019
BEST ANSWER: All AR-15 stripped lowers will work, that’s why this is America’s favorite rifle
Where can I get instructions to assemble the freedom AR carbine rifle kit?
Rusty C on Aug 6, 2019
Let's say a guy had an Anderson stripped lower for an AR will that work with this M4 kit?
William on Oct 27, 2019
BEST ANSWER: YES. Absolutely. Your stripped (“poverty pony”) lower + this kit + about an hour = a complete AR style Modern Sporting Rifle (MSR)

PS: no offense about the Anderson lowers - I have several and just ordered a few more on sale!
Does this kit include everything to create a functional rifle?
GoBeav494 on Jul 30, 2019
BEST ANSWER: My kit included everything but the lower receiver, and a rear sight. The only other things you need are a good set of assembly tools and a little time. I couldn't find a spot on the 'blemished' product. Excellent value and final results exceeded my expectations. The rifle shoots really well. I've had zero malfunctions or issues post assembly. PSA has crazy fast shipping as well. I couldn't give a higher rating for this package.
Do these uppers come assembled ?
Jack on May 9, 2019
BEST ANSWER: Yes they do. Of course you'll need to disassemble the BCG, clean it and the rest of the upper like you would following a range session. The lower build was a piece of cake. I built two of these and they run flawlessly.
If I buy this kit, what else besides mag and ammo will I need to pick up ? Thanks.
scott r on Jul 24, 2019
BEST ANSWER: don't forget you are gonna need a lower receiver also. i have put plenty of these together and they work like a champ.accuracy is pretty decent also. remember, this IS NOT a 1000.00 kit. you get what you pay for but in this case it works. good luck
is this a free floating handguard?
Roger W on Nov 8, 2019
BEST ANSWER: No it is not. It is held on with a traditional delta ring. To install a free float handgaurd it will be necessary to remove the A2 front sight post/ gas block.
What else do I need to get to take this one to the range ? It will be a gift to my son who is thinking of joining the military next summer and I don’t want to forget some thing.
Wrench on Oct 31, 2019
BEST ANSWER: All you will need is a stripped lower receiver and a rear sight. Just make sure that the lower you purchase is a Milspec receiver. If so, all the parts in this kit will fit perfectly. I have put a couple thousand rounds through mine since I built it and it has functioned perfectly. I am also assuming you have the appropriate basic tools for assembly.
Does this upper come headspaced?
chandler w on Apr 27, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Yes. Ready to go except you always clean a kit or gun first.
Compatible lower. Can anyone recommend a good stripped lower for this kit? and specifically if an Anderson stripped lower would match up? Also....any recommends on the rear site please as it appears to have the front. Thank you.
Anthony P on Oct 31, 2019
BEST ANSWER: Anderson lower works great. Put mine together with one and have 500+ rounds through it with no issues so far. As for a rear sight I bought the polymer flip up rear sight and it worked just fine. I recently found a metal rear sight that attaches to the rail and has windage and elevation adjustments... Hope this helped!
Can I put a scope on this gun?
Davie L on Apr 23, 2019
BEST ANSWER: It has a picatinny rail so yes you can. The front site is fixed and could be in the way though. It can actually be removed if you have some know how and replaced with a gas block and floating handrail.
.Is there a rear sight, if not what would recommend?
Frank H on Jun 20, 2019
BEST ANSWER: No , but recommend carry handle sight
Is the barrel chromed lined?
Pablo M on Nov 4, 2019
BEST ANSWER: No, it’s Nitride treated.
What stripped lower is necessary?
Big Deal on Jul 16, 2019
BEST ANSWER: I have been successful in marrying the upper to both cast and billet lowers. The best match is with one of the PSA lowers.

3rd one. It doesn’t get any better than this. The kits I have received have been great. As a Chicago Police Firearms retired this deal can’t be beat if your looking for a 5.56 carbine.

High Quality, High Value Kit
Ordered this kit as my first AR, kit arrived in 3 days, I noticed no blemishes on it whatsoever, my neighbor who is a gunsmith assembled the lower unit in about an hour, oiled it, aligned the sites and it works flawlessly. Total cost for this kit, plus lower unit, and 40 round magazine all totaled less than $375.
