New inferior design - Burris AR-PEPR Z QD Rifle Scope Mounts

I have owned a couple of Burris' P.E.P.R. QD mounts. The previous design was far superior, IMO.

The QD levers on the older design were truly QD...with positive locking to ensure they didn't unlatch but were easy to open when you needed to remove a scope. The QD levers on the new design (easy to tell, as they are silver in color and open toward muzzle as opposed to the old design which were black anodized and opened to the rear), are difficult to access. The latching mechanism makes it difficult to unlatch. The front latch is especially difficult to unlatch.

With the older design, I was able to mount a 1-6x24 to an AR and get proper eye-relief positioning while still maintaining a rear BUIS. With the ring location of the new design, I could not mount a 1-6x24 and achieve usable eye-relief w/o installing it to the rear-most rail position which required removal of the BUIS.

I was not able to utilize the new-design P.E.P.R. for what I intended, so it is being returned.
