TX2A from United States, TX Public Profile

These rounds are excellent for taking down medium to large game. The bullet maintains grain weight in barrier testing and provides a accurate round to boot. These shoot 1 MOA or better depending on external conditions and me of coarse. If you haven't tried NOSLER accubond, pick up a box. From my experience these shoot well in virtually ever barrel I have.

The Magpul QD endplate has several flaws given the price point. The key is very small and the endplate is so oversized it makes indexing on the buffer tube less than ideal. I cannot recommend an endplate that is so loose and cannot be properly staked. For the price you would be better off using Griffin Armament, Blackout Defense, or V seven.

Gold medal match is my go-to for non-hand loads. You always get a quality product with exceptional tolerances. Given this is mass produced you couldn't ask for more. In my AR10s with various length Criterion barrels, groups routinely come in at sub-moa. If you're looking for a round to test out your barrel Federal gmm won't do you wrong.

This light is unreliable! After only a few months and some range time it began to degrade in light output with a freshly charged battery. This problem only grew with flickering, failure to illuminate, and flat out not illuminating with the tail cap depressed. Given the features and output there are several other manufacturers with better options at this price point. I would say skip Surefire and their abysmal customer service. I would highly suggest searching problems with surefire df models, the web is full of YouTube videos, forum discussions, and truthful reviews of this sub par product.

Poor machining and customer service from Surefire is abysmal. They are rude and extremely slow and borderline incompetent to address and rectify anything related to their product. I would pass on this and try a Dead Air/ Nox or Hux. They're substantially less expensive, have excellent machining and terrific customer service.

Look, before you dismiss my review take a moment and do some research on M600DF emitters. If you are somewhat competent you will find what I and many others have experienced. The failure of the LED emitter is not something that can be tolerated, especially on weapons light. My M600DF worked fine for a few months, but it progressively began to deteriorate in performance until the point at which the light would no longer power on. It wasn’t the batteries, threads, contacts, etc... I have been in the game long enough, the basics were all checked and covered. So I contacted Surefire to warranty the light, they sent me a label nothing else. No apology for the trouble or failure of their touted "guaranteed to perform, legendary products”. It was over a month without any sort of communication from Surefire, before the light was sent back without notice or progress of the repair/ replacement. They sent it back in plain box nothing to protect the light, not even the same bubble packaging I used to transport the light. No sticker, coupon, note, nothing.... I mean their flagship product has known issues and they cannot even bother to even throw in a spare battery or apologize for the 30 plus days you had to be without a light. Thankfully, I am not on duty, but if I was this entire process would really tick me off. For a company with the slogan ( Go with the proven performer. Go SureFire. ), I find it ironic that my hated Olights have outperformed all of my surefire products

Surefire has a reputation for unmatched quality and execution in manufacturing their products. The WARCOMP 762 I received is almost comical how bad the machining, finish, and DLC are. There are burs on the threads, the prongs are all dinged up, the circumference of the flash hider by the ports has horizontal machining marks all across the body. The cutouts for a wrench were also left deburred and covered in swirls. This is unacceptable QC, whomever passed this to be DLC coating was either blind or simply did not care. The DLC was also improperly setup or the part was not prepped appropriately. The finish is very uneven with rough patches and light and dark spots on the exterior. I have several BCG’s with the same DLC coating and they all look uniform except for the inner workings of the BCG. At this point, I have had to warranty several weapon lights from them and am beginning to wonder if Surefire is living off its ONCE earned reputation. I know of several other shooters with problems, the bulletproof quality is just not matching up with what your getting from a Surefire product. Their customer service has never apologized once for the inconvenience or month long return process. Not even a shirt or sticker to make amends, after spending your money for a top tier product only to receive sub par customer service with a sub par product. I am a no go with Surefire, they can hype their facilities all they want on social media. I am not buying the internet hype anymor

Not impressed! I decided to try this out, due to the badger ordnance always being on backorder. After receiving it appeared to be a quality unit, the levers are very well machined and look great. Installation was a breeze however the function was just awful. The positive engagement I was looking for just isn’t there. It feels gritty and doesn’t positively engage in the 90 degree position. I tried the 45 degree which was somewhat better, but still felt like it was dragging against sandpaper. I tried swapping springs as well as the detent to no avail. The shorter spring made engagement easier but it still wouldn’t give a positive snap and continued to feel extremely gritty. I love Radian and have tons of their products, I am confident they would send out a new unit to address the problem but I’d rather just return this. I may try the GI version as the ambi lever does contact my trigger finger. I have large hands (XXL Mechanix gloves) you may not run into the same issue. So far the best safety I have ever felt was the A.S.S safety by Elftman. It has the fastest positive engagement but for defensive rifles, I use Badger Ordnance. If I was dead set on this safety I could polish the groove where the detent rides, but then I would be modifying the product.

Simplistic and functional design accompanied by durable construction. The Arisaka approach to a VFG is really a work of art. The machining and finish are impeccable. I would note it was a tad shorter and heavier than stated. Mine came in at 2.1 oz with hardware and under 2.5”. I ended up returning this and sticking with the BCM VFG for this particular application, mainly due to asthetics. If I was building something more streamlined, this would be my go to. The body feels great in the hand with the recessed portion giving your fingers a natural position for a modified c-clamp. I personally found it more ergonomic than the KAG, Arisaka Indexer, and BCM VFG. You can’t go wrong with Arisaka.

This flash hider is mind boggling. It looks great, has functional design, and is incredibly affordable. Break Arms customer service is also top notch! They are very communicative and interested in customer feedback. I am seriously impressed with their design taking notes from the infamous BE Meyers 249F. They implement the same threading of the internal diameter, which works wonders to disrupt exiting gases. The end result is an exceptionally functional flash hider, like really its amazing. I replaced a 3 port Ascend Ti brake on my AR-10 and this has made a world of difference ( in a good way). Recoil and muzzle rise wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be coming from a brake. It does make it nicer to shoot with the added “TACTICAL” benefit of hiding flash and reducing concussion. I couldn’t be more satisfied! Looking forward to their new designs, they are even considering releasing a competitor to the WARCOMP & NOX. A ported flash hider at this price point would definitely be a no brainer!

* My only con is the external threads, as I don’t plan on using their blast baffle. *
