    Above is a quick picture of what they sent me to try out for free but it says I have to return it no later than 3 business days or be billed. They did enclose return label tho so no biggie.

    Its marked sample and the kit includes a two part silicone mold, a mixing cup, a large syringe/injector, a mixing stick, a bottle with a thick black liquid and instructions. What you see is what I got. Says I can make two with this sample kit.

    I feel like taking the night off to start pouring me out some lowers. Off to work.

      Wow, this is gonna be AWESOME

      Take some video, please! I don't think we'll care of the quality, as long as it's a moving picture

        Yeah I see no buffer tube part to the mold so looks like a POS waiting to sucker people into wasting money on something that's not complete.

        Edited to say now I see it, hopefully the mold don't get stuck in the and get damaged.

          Look closer it's there, it is going to require taping after molding but no biggie

            A threaded buffer tube is there in two parts half on one side of the mold and half on the other side. Not home right now but I wish I was so I could get this started and take more pictures.

                      duh

                      Although I worked all last night I just couldn't sleep knowing I had AR Mold waiting for me(Mistake #1 get sleep). I put the two part mold together sucked up the resin in the syringe/injector and started injecting in the resin. I poured to the top and left it on my kitchen table to dry. I came back to get a refill on my coffee and OMG the resin leaked out of the sides which thank God was easy to clean up it came right off my kitchen table (Mistake#2 didn't do this in the garage). So I kinda missed the part in the instructions where it said to put the mold in the pine box in came in (Mistake #3 didn't read all the instructions). Apparently the the pine box the mold came in was part of the kit which I kinda broke (Mistake #4 used gorilla strength). Out of the excitement of receiving the mold yesterday I didn't see big red writing on the pine box stating not to break open but instead unscrew open. The pine box was suppose to be used to hold the two part mold together tight. Well since I already screwed it up I decided to take the two mold apart and this is what I found:

                      The only solid part was around the mag well since all the resin poured out above that was thin which makes sense because it was lacking polymer resin. 1st attempt was a FAIL but I'm pretty sure the next attempt will be a success. I called up GunMold up and they said I was sent enough polymer resin for 4 lowers so thankfully I'm not out...yet.

                      The polymer resin cleaned up really easy so that's a relief. I'm gonna get a little sleep and try again later after I completely read the instructions this time.

                              Take 2, I just repaired the little pine box I broke which the mold came in, put the two part mold together, put it in the little pine box, sucked up the polymer resin with the syringe, injected the polymer resin into the mold, DONE (Total time: 3-5 minutes). Now I just have to wait 3 hours for the polymer resin to set harden at which I expect to have a complete AR15 lower receiver. I'm very excited!

                                I honestly can't express the excitement! I don't think my hearts beat this fast since high school when asking the hottest girl out.
