Is this spare parts kit worth getting? AR

[Target]

Palmetto has a spare parts kit ( springs, firing pin, extractor etc) for $16 .
Will this cover most of the parts needed to keep a scary rifle up and running?

PSA AR15 Field Armorer's Kit - 7220

Im new to ARs myself (waiting on my lower kits)...half off, seems like a good to get while you can. Plenty of little parts you could easily lose, too.

No extractor?

(But yes, good kit.)

Try pricing each part individually- it's a pretty good deal for milspec parts. It may not have everything but having extra detents, springs, etc on hand is a good thing.

 

[FRANKIE]

Great deal. If you have a Colt lower a little less so.

 

[Celt]

I need to get some of those spares too. I have a handful of spare parts, but not everything.

Always get spares for everything. Be mindful that spares tend to grow into full rifles (at least at my house they do).

That is a good price, and yes it's definitely worth having on hand. Especially the darned takedown pin retaining spring, which I seem to bend or lose every week.

Keep in mind that PSA has had horrible luck with their credit card processing security over the last few months. Lots of people on Reddit complaining about fraud charges after buying something there.

I had a similar issue on gunmagwarehouse.com.

With that, maybe these spare parts are not such a good deal.

PSA has apologized and claimed they've fixed it, but people on Reddit (specifically Gun Deals - Deals for firearms, ammunition, and accessories • /r/gundeals - good-bye wallet) have steered clear just in case. Some credit cards allow a one-time CC #; that would be a good option. Some people use a debit-style credit card, but those have fees and you need to know the amount ahead of time.

I have a separate credit card just for gun-related Internet purchases, that way I can keep a close eye on it and if I have to get a replacement card it doesn't affect my other bills. (Netflix, Gas, etc)
