This is a review for the two bolt version, not the thumbscrew+button version.

Upgraded from a Vortex push-button flip mount, and I do prefer this one. In spite of there being no active lock it still holds things in place with negligible free play or movement, and the two bolts hold things nice and flush to the top rail. Makes running the charging handle on my BRN-180 upper a bit easier (I have it switched to the AR180 Parts knurled straight handle but I feel like the stock one may play nice with it). Absolutely nothing remarkable or notable otherwise, which is what you want in mounting hardware.

Off the bat the reason I can't give this five stars is because they won't fit super well on most people. I normally wear a size large glove and I had to go down to medium on these, however; my hands are a really odd shape/size (long skinny fingers, etc) and in medium these actually work perfect for me. Go to the Vertx website and really seriously measure out yourself properly according to their charts and if you're between sizes go with the smaller one, they'll break in for you.

Natural materials like merino wool and leather are very nice and I'd call these a good alternative to PIG gloves. I can load mags, use my phone, dig around in my pockets, and of course operate a firearm without a problem in these, and the fabric is plenty breathable and even moisture wicking. They're my favorite gloves bar none so far, if you need high dexterity and have hands that trend towards long and skinny, give these a shot.
