armorers corner from United States, KY Public Profile

Have done this mod on an AK-47 prior to this install so I knew what to expect. Optics Planet price was GREAT, shipping was good & fast. No problem with OP at all. My issue Arose when trying to contact the original manufacturer (Texas Weapons Systems) to resolve a parts issue. Multiple calls, multiple emails & over a month later no help, no response! I finally did some machine shop work on the casting & got it to work. Extensive work easily avoided if required parts were included or even available to purchase. DON'T EXPECT ANY HELP FROM TWS CUSTOMER SERVICE!

These would not work out of the package. They would not feed, they would jam & hang up. They are basically useless. I took photos but there is nowhere on this review to post them. I would advise other shoppers to look elsewhere for mags.

I purchased an AGM GEN3 White Phosphorus MUM-14A that was the most expensive in its class with an advertised screen resolution between 64-72. This sucker was expensive but less than the Mil-spec PVS-14. Still, for what I spent on this unit, it should have been a fantastic unit. WHAT I GOT WAS A PIECE OF JUNK! There were artifacts in zone 1, 2 and 3. The artifacts in zone 1 we're so bright I could not distinguish between the artifact and my IR laser designator. The spec sheet stated the artifacts we're between .003 and .006. they were much, much larger. The construction of the housing of the MUM-14 was also junk. Where the j arm attaches to the monocular, was a tiny molded flange on the outer surface of the housing. It looked to be so delicate that any impact to the j arm would immediately crack it off the housing. Why they didn't incorporate a standard ¼-20 mounting boss is beyond me. This thing will NEVER survive in a real world environment. JUNKARUNEY BOYS, BEWARE! I returned it and purchased a GEN3 White Phosphorus 0PMOD PVS14. OPTICS PLANET was awesome with the return and helping me purchase what I wanted. OPTICS PLANET A+, AGM FFFFFFFFFFFF.

I first bought several cheaper NV units (Ghost Hunter, Torey Pines), tried them & returned them. I bought an Armasight Spark Core 2 & it's as good as a PVS14 without the high price! I have a rhino mount & a rifle mount & both mounts are superb! You can buy 3 of these for the price of a 14.
