I have really been impressed with this echo trigger for quite some time and now I can also add, I am impressed with Fostech's Customer Service! I have installed almost a dozen of these triggers with only one issue and that was my fault. So far I have only had to change one buffer to get the thing to run like it should with all the others running H buffers. The one I changed, I had to go to an H1. If you go to youtube and watch the fostech install video, you will see and here what I am talking about as far as the possibility of having to run a heavier buffer. Back to my error, my latest install, this weekend, I was not paying close attention and I let the trigger lock spring fly away. It is now somewhere in the Twilight Zone! Going to the Fostech sight, I was able to order a replacement and it was only $2. I did not get any kind of email confirmation on the order and it being Saturday, I waited until today (Monday) to call them They answered the phone quickly and also was able to verify my order just as fast, saying it would ship today or Tuesday! I was really surprised to get through and my problem resolved that fast!

Install is not all that difficult IF YOU TAKE YOUR TIME and the install video Fostech has is VERY HELPFUL! This one time problem with install again, was my fault. As I mentioned I have put these in several different AR's including carbine and pistol configurations. To the new echo owner, there is a slight learning curve but after that, you can dump a mag in not

I do not know if I would spend the money for this if I thought I was only going to build one stripped receiver. But then again, I may would. Certainly, if I knew I was going to be building several of these, I would certainly purchased this item. It is very simple to use and it gets the job done quickly. You may have a slight learning curve the very first time. But you will get the hang of it on that install and then you can fly through this operation very quickly. Basically, it is the cat's meow.

I purchased a set of these for my AR several years ago and was extremely satisfied! So much so, I have used them on all my builds since. Install as a replacement on existing AR is not bad at all. However, instead of using instructions, search on youtube! You can find GREAT videos that show how to replace your pins on a current weapon WITHOUT LOOSENING THE CASTLE NUT! Not only is it easier but also does not compromise where you currently have a properly staked castle nut. On a new build, it is just the same as standard pins to install. The extra little bit of length does not cause any problems at all but, sure makes take down much easier. I recommend the product! You will be glad you spent this little bit of money!

These things installed make taking dowwn your weapon easy as pie! Install is also very easy! Be sure to check YouTube as there are several videos that show how to install the Takedown Pin, WITHOUT LOOSENING THE CASTLE NUT AND PULLING THE DETENT AND DETENT SPRING! This is super good for those many that have staked castle nuts! I put these as standard on all my builds now! Highly recommended!!!

I purchased this for my, C39V2 and the fit was perfect. Very solid lock up and you can field strip the AK without removing the mount! This allows you to maintain zero perfectly. For those that own the C39V2, this is a must have! Highly recommended!

I have been running Galco Leather holsters for over 20 years because they are simply one of the best manufacturers of fine leather holsters out there. I was building a Polymer80 Glock17 clone and had previously found when building a Glcok 15 clone the Galco holsters would work. My origional concern back then was, Glaco is very "form fitting" and the trigger gurard on the Polymer80 is a little larger and different so I had a worry, would it fit? It did so I jumped on this model (Galco Speed Master 2.0 Paddle/Belt Holster, Glock 17, Glock 22, Glock 31, Concealment, Right Hand, Black, SM2-224B — Color: Black) for my Glock17 clone. Again, the fit was perfect and I could not be more pleased! The hand built leather holster is flawless in every way and very nice to look at. Once YOU FOLLOW THE BREAK IN INSTRUCTIONS, the holster carrys your weapon firmly yet, it is still easy to draw from. The paddle works excellent with a good belt and you do get the option to make it a through the belt holster. Again, FOLLOW THE INCLUDED INSTRUCTIONS ON FITTING AND BREAK-IN. If you do you will have your holster ready to carry in just a few hours! The instructions say for you to use a freezer bag and do so! Do not try to fit your weapon in the very tight holster without breaking in first! And yes, use a freezer bag and not just a thin sandwich bag. If you want a proffesional grade, hand made leather holster that has a fit and finish to be envied, look no further! Yes, it is pricy but you do get what

The sights were just fine after getting them on but the fitting required was a hassle! Sighs came well packaged and they do light up very nice. Once on the weapon, they are very easy to pick up and use. But that is all the good I have to say. Using my professional Wheeler sight pusher these sights out of the box were not going to go on! Front and rear required some "fitting" in order to install and luckily I did have the correct files to be able to do this. However, when you pay this much for a brand name like, Trijicon, and the sights are marked for use in a well known brand and model like the Sig 229, you expect them to fit and install without having to do any work on them first! That was a real hassle and because of that I can not recommend thsee sights at all! Very, very, disappointing to say the least!

The good is, it is not a bad install and once installed it does work. What I do not like about it IMHO is the deal killer as far as buying another or recommending. The selector to go from semi to echo is inside the trigger well up against the frame and I subscribe to, "you do not put your finger inside the trigger well unless you are ready to fire!" Another problem with this selector is it is attached to the trigger group in such a way that when you pull the trigger back to fire, the selector itself moves downward a little. Only a little but this does cause a gap between the selector and the frame. Unlikely but any debris that may be flying in the air could get caught between the two and then you would have a failure until found and cleared. Again, while I think that would be rare, it could happen and "Murphy's Law" would have this happen at the worst possible time. You standard safety is still part of the equation. If you have the weapon on safe, it will not fire. Move it to fire and you have semi if the other selector is in the semi mode. Moving that second selector to echo gives you the echo firing mode. The Gen II has all the controls in the standard safety position where you select, safe, semi, or echo. Cost about $100 more but well worth that as it is reliable, easy to use, and no pear of debris locking the thing up. Add the extra $$, skip on this and get the Gen II instead!

Got two sets for my glock 27 and glock. Using my sight pusher it is very simple install. Sights are remarkably clear and bright in the dark and the front sight really glows nicely in the daylight. Extremely satisfied and I would purchase again.

The smaller diameter of this KX5 over the KX3 is noticeable and will fit inside many hand guards where the KX3 will not. The finish of this KX5 is much nicer also. This does not come with instructions on disassembly (for cleaning) and my understanding is the KX5 no longer comes with those instructions as Novaske now recommends to not take it apart. I think this probably comes from all the negative reviews about the parts seizing up and not being able to come apart. Probably OK to just run it like the company says but after a trip to the range (using a video) I attempted to take mine apart and did with no problem. I removed a star from my review based on this possible problem.

Installation is a snap as there is not really any timing involved other than you would want you logos to line up nicely, even though this would have no effect on the operation. The device comes with a crush washer so you are ready for install right out of the box. Spikes Barking Spider comes with no instructions and NO CRUSH WASHER OF SHIMS! They both operate about the same but for leaving out needed parts, I put the pig over the spider.

With just the flash hider my pistol came with it was not fun to shoot and a typical break that mitigates recoil would have been even worse with even more noise and concussion. This thing sends all the blast directly out front and away from you hands and face, greatly increasing the comfort level in shooting. This type of device is an absolute must (IMHO)on AR Pistols a
