FM-TX from United States, TX Public Profile

I've used Hoppe's bore snakes in the past and find that they are a quick, clean and efficient way to clean my gun bores. But I have to say, the new cases are awesome! The cover of the case now doubles as a handle to pull the snake through the bore, so you get more leverage, and don't strain your hand / wrist as much. And then, once you're finished, you just wrap it all back up, drop it in the case and pop the lid back on. Perfect for carrying in your gun bag, so it's always handy! Great job Hoppe's, making an already great product even better! Gotta love good old American innovation!

I ordered these to use at the outdoor range in the hot, humid Texas summer months, and they work great. Lighter weight than other tactical pants I own, and they seem to breathe quite a bit more, so they're a bit cooler. Lots of pockets for storing stuff, and I like the vents in the sides to provide a bit more breathability. I ordered the first pair in my normal size, but they were just a bit too tight in the waist. So, I replaced them with one size larger in the waist, and they fit great. Length was good. OpticsPlanet's return process was awesome - very simple and straightforward. Overall, I'm very happy with the pants, and with OpticsPlanet.

We had a grip screw come loose and fall out somewhere between the range and home on my wife's Sig Sauer P229. We ordered this set to replace it, and it fit perfectly and worked like a charm. One suggestion (which we verified with our local Sig rep before doing), is to put a drop of LocTite Blue (NOT Red) on each screw before tightening. The LocTite will hold the screws in place, but still allow you to remove them if you want to change grips. (LocTite Red is permanent unless you heat the part to ~500 degrees - not what you want to do to your beloved pistol.)

Just to avoid this hassle again, we removed all the grip screws and put a drop of LocTite on each of them before replacing, and none have budged since. I highly recommend these grip screws if you need them, (and LocTite blue to make sure you don't need them again and again).

I ordered this Picatinny Rail Section to attach my new Leapers UTG Heavy Duty Recon 360 Bipod to the M-Lock rail of my AR-15. The rail section appears to be well-made, and high quality. It worked great, and I have had no problems with it. (And I love the Bipod too - I highly recommend it.)

I ordered this bipod for my AR-15, in preparation for moving beyond the typical 25-yard indoor range to 50-100 yards (and perhaps beyond) for target shooting. This bipod seems to be the perfect choice. It's reasonably light, yet well-made and easy to operate. I needed a short Picatinny rail section to attach it to my M-Lock rail, but found that easily at OpticsPlanet - (I bought the Leapers UTG PRO 1.57in 4-Slot Keymod Picatinny Rail Section). The swivel base works well and is very convenient for quick movements between different targets, and the mechanisms to extend and lock the legs in various positions work well and are are easy to operate. Overall, I'd highly recommend this bipod - well worth the money, and not really all that expensive.
