Good all aluminum construction. This is not your typical pic rail accessory, as it does not have a side of the rail attachment that moves. You remove the cross pin and slide it on to the rail, and reinstall the cross pin to attach. That said, if your rail is not at 1913 Picatinny specs, this may not work for you. It is not as bulky as I was expecting to be. Sling attachment swivels well, and does not feel too loose or wobbly.

The green laser on this product is very bright. Adjustments feel loose, but seem to hold zero. Quick detach system easy to adjust, but minor play is observed. Battery compartment spring too small, as blunt force on the end cap, or a range trip of shooting will interrupt the connection, requiring me to remove the battery cap and twist back on.
The buttons on the unit are responsive, I have observed that on several, yet infrequent, occasions, the temporary buttons stick, allowing the unit to continuously display the laser. This requires me to depress the static button to disable it. The pressure pad is typical of Chinese products, although not as "Mushy" as many others. It is very small, so there aren't any rail covers or traditional attachment methods (that I know of) that work with this pad. Use of twist ties seem to lay on one of the buttons, so the rubber tire method would be suggested. It inserts into the unit by means of a 3.5 mini jack, so there may be flexibility to use other pads, but haven't taken the time to look into that.
I ordered the green/IR laser combo, but received the Green/track light unit. Oddly enough, the box and sticker on the unit suggests my original purchase. Nonetheless, shows the QC of NCStar.
The over all construction of the unit of decent. All aluminum construction. Appears that it may be water resistant, o ring sealed by battery, but where the laser/lights are housed appears to not be. I haven't tried nor care to...
On one end, for the price

Firstly, one should understand that these rail covers are not necessarily designed for any hand guard. Noting the metal tab located on the one end of the cover, these are designed to snap into place on specifically made notches set in certain hand guards. Knights Armament (KAC) designs their pic rails like so.
That aside, they will fit onto spec pic rails, but will not affix into place as intended. They are very form fitting, however, so no need to worry about them shifting on the rail. Due to this, getting them into position on your rail does require a good amount of force and leverage. If your rail is out of 1913 picatinny specs, I would not suggest using them. They are hard cast, and unlike Magpul or other covers like so, do not bend or flex.
They do have a bit of a slick feel, as, aside from the ribbing, do not offer much grip, due to lack of stippling or texturing. The ribbing does grip well, and, as one with large hands, fills out the hand guard to my liking.
If one is specifically looking for a military look for their AR build, this will fit the build, as stated earlier, for a much less then KAC products.

If you are looking for the feel/look of a more traditional KAC broom handle grip, this is great. I personally prefer a longer and thinner vertical grip, and have always liked the feel of the KAC grip in my hand. This is built exactly the same. The main difference is material. It is a cheaper polymer, which makes it slightly lighter and brings me to the only negative point. The locking tab that gets screwed in to the Pic rail is very soft. After one application, a majority of it has been smushed down. I applied a KAC grip on the same hand rail and did not see any deformation or damage.

Attaches to the hand guard firmly. No wiggle or play. Adjustment knobs stay in place. Sight is crafted well, no crookedness or cant observed. Windage and elevation adjustments are firm, tactile and correct. Finish is glossy, so you do get a bit of a mirrored image against the interior walls. Nothing that fine sand paper can't fix... All in all a good removable carry handle for a good price.

I have always used the KAC vertical grip, but, if it's not on sale, I am not interested in spending the money required for it. This Handle is a great replica, and preforms just as good as the KAC. It is a tad longer, which I don't mind, but it is a long grip. It does not have a witness hole to line up on the pic rail, but with a little touch and go, it secures very firmly. There is an O-ring on the "dowel", that will begin to bind up as you are screwing it tight, but, by using a screw driver, can tighten it to perfection. No wiggle or play.

The sight attaches positively and securely to the rail. Stands to mil spec configurations (if being attached to a gas block, they make a taller version). Front sight post is clear and sharp. Adjustments are solid and firm, no wiggle to the post. For a fixed front sight, can't go wrong with this one!

There are a lot of removable carry handles on the interwebs, with a lot of price variance. Sacrificing the quality of a sight for the price is not ever worth it, however, it does not mean that sights can be affordable. I have had good experiences with UTG in the past, and bad experiences with Chinese products as well, so I, at first, was skeptical. Firstly, the sight is made in the USA (yes, USA makes garbage from time to time, as well), so at least I know its not re branded material. Secondly, the over all fit and finish is great. No machining marks, spurs, scratches, etc. Sight is straight, lines up to to BUIS and f marked sight blocks. Attaches securely and positivly to the reciever. Adjustments are firm, tactile and audible. For the price (although $70 isn't always "cheap") it works very well. I trust it, time will tell if it lasts.

Vortex, once again, puts out yet another great optic for an affordable price. The Strikefire II comes with a cantilever mount, which holds the optic at 1/3 co witness and further down the rail. The glass clarity is great, with little reflection on front glass. Construction of the optic is solid. The emiter can be observed at 1 o clock, but doesn't impede visibility much. Red dot crisp amd sharp. Intutive controls.

I purchased this brace to replace my sb15. I like the slimmer profile and the overall appearance. The color (FDE) is slightly darker than my magpul accesories, however, barely noticable. I find that the fit on the buffer tube is slightly looser than the sb15. Check weld comfort is great. Sb braves are heavier and more expensive than other options, such as that KAK shockwave, however, the rubber construction acts as a large "recoil pad" and, in my opinion, is much more comfortable.
