I received an ATN X-Sight. It did not power on. Optics Planet sent me a replacement quickly with no shipping charge. The second one charged and powered on to a blank, static screen. I went through the process to install the new firmware. While doing that it powered down and turned into a paperweight just like the first one. It is not OP’s fault. They are a good, honest retailer. This particular product is simply junk. I am disappointed. Perhaps night vision is one of those products where you get what you pay for.

It does not work right out of the box. I tried their charger multiple times. I tried a different charger. There is no indicator of any kind to tell you it is charging. Then it just doesn’t turn on. ATN’s customer service is a joke. They want you to watch a 20 min video about updating the firmware… buddy, I can’t even see the firmware version without powering it on. I tried to talk to a human being at tech support. They wanted me to put in a credit card number to talk to tech support! Do not buy this! Do not buy any ATN product! This is not Optics Planet’s fault. Optics Planet has always been great. However, when you put OPMOD on the product, then it doesn’t work, it makes you look bad. Maybe encourage your partner, ATN, to QC their gear.

Also, ATN advertises to you the whole time you are on their website. There are constant pop-ups trying to get you to look at other products while you are trying to troubleshoot the one you already bought. It feels like a gimmick website.

I put this trigger in my G48. It isn’t squishy and no over travel. It’s so good I need to get them for my other Glocks. I’m dropping a whole bunch of money on triggers tonight, so I need to review this trigger to get the coupon code! Now you’re going to try one, and before you know it, you’ll be back here buying Overwatch for all your Glocks. That’s how this review thing works. Buy them before the tariffs kick in!

I put the TacFire G23 slide on a Lonewolf Timberwolf compact frame. It looks really nice. I will include a photograph if the review allows it. I completed it with a Lonewolf G32 barrel for .357 sig and Meprolight tritiated sights. I will add a Streamlight and Trijicon red dot later. The fit is excellent. It’s light weight and carries comfortably, like a Glock 19. The slide or frame must be slightly different than a G19 because it fits well in a Tenicor G17 holster already in my inventory. The retention is great even though there is a little space between the muzzle and the distal end of the holster. The TacFire on the Timberwolf cycles three different types of ammunition (two flat nose FMJ, one JHP) flawlessly with no break in period. I haven’t shot it at longer ranges, but the accuracy is great within 7 yards. I thought it would have serious recoil with .357 sig in such a light pistol, but it’s not bad. The frame was on sale and with the great price on this TacFire slide, the total build came in about $100 cheaper than a factory Glock for what might be a better pistol.

This is the easy way to get the rear sight in. Save yourself some suffering and get this thing.
