A: The K5 is larger and meant for bigger pieces of wood and it also has a built in clamp and dust cover. The K4 is moreso for DIYers and smaller. Both are great.

A: It will. I have used this many times with 2x4s and they are solid joins.

A: Yes

Useful woodwork joining tool
I had some difficult joints to make between two exposed joists and this tool really made it easier. I also built a base for a Farmhouse kitchen sink and it was so easy. Highly recommend this Kreg Product.

This is the one you want.
Best value. I have used the other Kreg pocket hole tools and this is the one you want. The smaller ones work but aren't as easy to work with and don't make as accurate and reproducible results. You can spend more too, but I'm not sure you get a much better product.

This is one of the best tools in my workshop. Over the last several years, I cannot count how many times I have used it to join wood for shelving or furniture with ease. The jig allows you to connect wood without using screws from the outside of the piece or dowels. It is easy to use; just set the throat collar on the screw and the guide block based on the thickness of wood. Drill the hole then screw into your piece. It works very well.
The kit comes with the jig, a drill bit, a long square hex driver rod, bags of 1", 1-1/4" and 1-1/2" screws as well as a DVD and wooden pocket hole fillers. Of note, I never use the wooden hole fillers. I only use this jig areas that will not be visible such as under a table or shelf.
The only directions that come with the jig is the DVD. I just watched a quick video on the internet instead. I do wish the jig came with a basic instruction/reference manual. Also, you will have to search online for the "Kreg Jig screw size chart" to know the proper screw to use. I added it as a picture to this review. I typically only join 5/8" and 2/4" boards, so 1-1/4" screws are all I use.
The only problem I have with this jig is fitting it and its contents back into the case. It can be tricky.

I had an old generic jig that only worked on thinner wood, and rarely used it. I just bought this to do some 2x4 construction in the garden. I built this compost bin in about two hours, and those are some of the tightest, strongest 2x4 joints I've ever made. Now I've ordered some Kreg screws in bulk. Should have bought this tool years ago.

KREG JIG FOR THE WIN
The Kreg Jig is a great tool and perfect for DIYers. It is very easy to use, after you have the thickness of your material you can set the jig correctly and within minutes you are drilling holes. The pocket holes allow you to create a simple way to join wood together. It is a very versatile tool and there are endless options on how you can use it. The kit comes with a Kreg Drill Bit and Driver bit which are needed to use the tool. One thing to note is this does work best with the Kreg branded pocket screws. I’ve used my K4 Kreg jig a number of times for projects around the house and I have plans to build a few pieces of furniture and this will certainly be put to use.
