I picked up one of these that was on sale as a demo. I love it so far. It's mounting and frame are rock solid. I believe I could do push ups on my rifle balanced on this optic. The glass is crystal clear and the dot is bright. There is just a hair of starring but I think that's my eyes, not this optic. I usually use a prism, etched so I have high expectations when it comes to a clear view and reticle. I have this mounted on 450 Bushmaster Pistol build and although I haven't shot with it yet, I am confident that optic will stay put and hold zero based on the solid lock up with my picatinny rail. I would consider this a duty rated optic, ready for the desert, jungle, bush and is up for whatever you throw at it. I just wish it had a CQB reticle, like the k-offs.

Tribe did an excellent job choosing this platform for their AR optic. The design is very familiar but tribe offers a unique radical that is suited for the five times magnification. The glass is really good and the eye relief and eye box are surprisingly generous 405 times optic. It is a little heavy, but if you mount it on a gun that has quite a bit of recoil, the extra weight helps the gun stand still. I would recommend this optic.

Let’s be real. This is a Kraken clone - and it’s awesome! I have tried other optics with the same profile and feature and the clarity on this optic is fantastic. Buttons are great and adjustments all click nicely. Installed on combat elite, fits nicely. Saved a few $ and all the same features as the big brand name optic.

Ok, so you went and got a nice 350 legend, and you need some glass to make it functional for now. If you are working on a budget but you don't want to cheap out on your nice new rifle, install a Burris- any level. I have a new 350 legend and I needed to get to the range in a hurry. This scope was a no brainer....I did look at the CT in the same price range, all the way to the Leopold at 299. I liked the drop downs and I have other Burris products and they all have Forever Warranty. Glass is crystal clear, eye relief is generous as well as the eye box. This model lacks illumination but I don't hunt at night yet, it's perfect for a day in the woods or the range. I haven't tried the dropdowns yet, but I assume they will work as designed. I will gladly report back if I discover any failures. For now, I couldn't be happier for my 100$ scope. They spend the money on the scope, not flip caps, or cheap rings, so be sure to pick out some solid mounting options at least.

If you think you’re ready for a binary trigger and you want to attempt controlling rapid fire, go ahead and save an extra hundred dollars for the echo two as it is much easier to install and the trigger pole and reset or a lot more like what you would expect from an AR trigger. I bought an echo sport as well. And it was bugger to install once I got it in the trigger pole felt like a cheap 22 trigger from a gun I bought at Walmart. The reset is difficult to catch and the binary was difficult to control. The echo two appears much improved in these aspects, it took me 15 minutes to install. The tricky part was getting the upper to close at the end of the install, but there are instructions for that.

I initially bought this to see if it improved my shooting experience and it did. Later, I discovered that if I had a gun with a bolt that isn’t locking back all the way, and it seemed that my spring was binding up in the buffer. Strike industries flat wire spring cured that issue for me and now it’s all I use.,

So, I’m home from the range, scope tracked well as I made adjustments. I did however notice a lot of bubbles in the glass when I’m bringing the scope into view. These air pockets distort light and make for a darker picture overall. In the sun and in the shade once your set, you’ll never notice them. But if you’re picky, keep looking.

I have been looking at this for almost 2 years and I finally gave it a try. I am glad I did. If i had to compare this optic to others, it’s on par with vortex and PA. The illumination is exceptional in my opinion. It’s hard to do Illumination on a budget but Trybe has nailed it. The reticle is unique but similar enough to others to make an easy transition. I chose the FDE 1-8x thinking it would at least be clear at 6x but the Trybe optic is edge to edge clear at full power. I picked mine up on sale at DVOR and saved 80 bucks. It’s easily my favorite LVPO at this price point. I have several other Trybe items, Bolt groups, pistol grips and forend grips, all have been outstanding. I may try an upper for kicks.

Everything about this trigger is great! Nice big heavy hammer to touch off those pesky steel loads, no creep at all. I started firing from the reset with gloves on, and the reset is so short and fast that I was able to sneak two rounds off trying to catch the reset. I need to work on my technique a bit to master the reset. Proceed with caution.

I k ow there is a lot on controversy regarding drop in cassette triggers. If you haven’t tried one lately, I say give the 140 series a shot. I have three others and a handful high dollar of 2 piece triggers as well. The 140 is a fun, fast to reset and zero rounds slip by when shooting aggressively. Zero spring failures in the 300 Bo/556 caliber. Frankly I have a hard time asking for more. Yes there are fancy 400$ drop in triggers that I have yet to try. If I felt like I needed more I’d buy more trigger. I haven’t really ran this trigger, other than dry-fire. It feels the same as the standard 140. .
