No brainer upgrade for the Aimpoint Optic. Much easier to deploy than the bikini covers and allows you to with a flip remove the ARD in lower light conditions. Only down side is that it is tight to install, which helps it to not move around, but you cannot change the battery without removing. Since the battery is supposed to last like 8 years in the M4, it is kind of a moot complaint.

These work as advertised and are well made. I bought the front and rear covers so this review covers both. Really what more is there to say other than they are a little high priced for what you get. However they are far better than the junk from China that you eventually toss and buy something that works.

Pros:  A must have for a $600 plus RD optic and much faster to deploy and utilize than the rubber covers
Cons:  The front cover is a pain to install and on the m4s you have to remove the front cover to change the battery in 5 to 10 years lol
Would recommend:  yes
