Review on πŸ”§ Neiko 50412A Storage Pieces Assortment by Robert Prix

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Packaging and zippers

Suitcase that collapsed upon arrival, meaning the plastic container was almost flat inside, the sharp plastic edges tore the plastic encasing the carton. The box that Revain shipped this set of pins in was not a regular box with closed walls and when I picked it up a pin fell out of the box (I haven't opened the actual box yet). As for the actual product: the pens do not come in the same quantity, however this could be due to someone falling out of the box during transit, the pens themselves do not meet the specified tolerances and are actually slightly larger, around 0, 01 more inches. . This was spotted with a caliper and measured 4 pins of the same size that I needed. Also, the pins appear to be much smaller than what is listed, again I don't know how many were lost in transit. If you want to use these pins for 5/64 inch gas block pin it will work, you just have to use more force than you are comfortable with. I'm giving a decent 2 stars based on the price of this set and the fact that the pins could be shaved off and attached and still worked. But understand that if I base the pin count on paper and say how many pins came in and what box I would need to buy I have no intention of returning this based on the fact that there is a decent amount of missing pins to send them back would cost me $4 and it's not worth the time.

Pros
