Over the past three years I've ordered several of these and they have become my "go-to" mount for AR scopes. They are very sturdy and the finish as good as what I've seen on more expensive cantilever mounts I've purchased in the past. But I figure why pay more, so now I don't. I'm careful not to torque the screws too much. I get things nice and snug with blue Lock Tite and then no issues.

I was hoping that with this sight's low profile it would fit in snug under the eyepiece of my scope, but it didn't. But with the rifle-length foregrip on this A2 AR it worked out fine in front of the QD scope and still has plenty of sight radius to accommodate accuracy. Sighted in great at 25 yards and I always feel better with a flip up backup ready to go. I like that it's sturdy aluminum and has a very positive snap into place when deployed. Will buy again when I need one.

I ordered two of these to test out since I had seen quite a few reviews on YouTube that put them through quite the torture test successfully. There's nothing cheap feeling about these at all and the glass and dot are bright and clear. Shake-on function worked as advertised. Shot perfectly once sighted in and held zero for the 200 rounds I put through it, don't expect that will be a problem. Battery, lens covers and flash-kill included. I liked them enough that I put one on my Pastor's rifle for him and kept the other as a backup.

I replaced another Wilson Combat ambi safety that had a "skinny" switch profile for the wider high ride safety. What a difference- night and day.

This fit perfectly on my magpul forgrip, which I mounted on a short M-Lok picatinny I already had. Nice to finally be able to have a sling on my truck gun that's on there solid.

I could have spent more on a quad rail but why would I? This was rated highly and now I see why- very sturdy feel, fit and finish are wonderful. Easy install.

This was a replacement from the original mount that came with my Strikefire. I had an LPVO on this particular AR for a couple years, but when I decided to switch back to Strikefire I couldn't find the mount. I was relieve to see that Optics Planey was selling the exact mount I needed, and I like this new one even a bit better than the old one I've had on there for years. A very rock solid piece that you won't go wrong in buying.

I ordered this to try out on my Savage 110L .308 hunting rifle. It's not going to fit the mounts I need to use with the rifle and I'm not going to a rail that will interfere with loading the rifle. It seems like a solid enough scope for the price and for somebody that needs something in the low 100+ price range you could do a lot worse. Seems like decent enough glass. Other than for the fact it has an engraved reticle, I don't care for the reticle much at all. For heavily wooded mountainous areas of Virginia, it is too fine for heavy cover and would especially be a no-go for low light conditions. The review that said he'd rather have this scope over a Leupold may have never owned a Leupold before, but in my opinion it's certainly no Leupold (and I've owned plenty). The Leupold Duplex reticle beats the pants off this reticle seven ways to Sunday, so this is going back to OP.

I bought one of these for my Ruger Mini-14 Ranch rifle I use for home defense and another one for Mini-14 Tactical I use as a truck and coyote gun. These are tough scopes and being so light they are perfect for handy shorter rifles and quick shots. I'm going to be ordering another one soon for my Marlin 336C 30-30 deer rifle for the same reason. I have exclusively bought Leupold's entry level scopes for years ($500 and under) and have yet to have a single problem. And if I did I have an American lifetime warranty behind it so no worries, I can buy with complete confidence. Highly recommend these!

The front and back sides of the leather straps were evidently (lightly?) glued together at the factory in CHINA (!) but they became separated from each other in the original packaging. The sling was unusable so was returned for store credit. Moral of the story...learning to NOT trust anything made in CHINA!! I usually look for the Made in USA label on products before I order but this one snuck by me.
