Not 100%, Not Ready For EDC
Written on Dec 01, 2024
Ran 125 rounds of 124 gr. brass cased 9x19 on my brand new Glock 48 MOS with Glock mags only, 0 issues whatsoever. Bought these Shield Arms mags along with the steel mag catch and ran 193 rounds, had 5 failures to feed which required a smack to the back of the slide to get the round into battery. Compression cycled all 3 mags 10 times each and fired 87 more rounds and had 3 failures to feed which required a slide smack. I don't know what exactly is causing the failures to feed/sluggish slide movement but it's not my job to diagnose someone else's product so I'm switching back to the original Glock mags and returning the Shield Arms mags. 10 rounds of certainty is better than an 15 rounds of uncertainty.

The Solid Click I've Been Looking For
Written on Nov 04, 2024
This is a superb replacement for the non-communicative plastic safety that comes with the M&P15-22. This ambi safety is clicky and positive, like a normal AR-15 safety. Also, this one has a 90 degree and a 60 degree throw detent channel on each end of the safety "barrel". Assembly is self explanatory once you remove the stock safety but the included directions are helpful. The two safety lever arms dove tail onto each end the safety "barrel" and are secured in place with a reverse-to-tighten set screw arrangement with 5 in/lbs of pressure. Seemed kinda of questionable at first but has held in place with hundreds of flicks of the safety. Be sure to drop some oil on the included detent prior to install for smoother operation. Such a good upgrade I'm gifting one to a friend.

Magpul Industries M-LOK MVG Vertical Grip
Another high quality Magpul product! This is no bigger than it needs to be but is enough to hold on to for a traditional "beer can" grip. It's sufficiently textured and it just makes supporting my 28 oz suppressor easier when it's on my 10.5 AR SBR. Plus it matches the rest of my grey Magpul furniture and rail covers which it should, of course.

Fits the SDS Imports AR-T02, Makes it 9+1
Written on Mar 11, 2022
Review for
Carlson's Choke Tubes Benelli Nova/SN, Ber Extrema/1301, CZ 712/912, Magazine Extension 10 Shot
I bought this for my SDS Imports AR-T02 because forum guys warned that the AR-T02 works with Beneli Nova tube extensions and not Remington tube extensions like what SDS states on their website. This tube extensions installed easily and functioned fine. I only got 9+1 with the either the included orange follower or the factory short black follower. Which is still a fun capacity to have. The tube clamp that comes with this is terrible cheap in its design. It not only misaligns the tube when fully tightened but has a sling stud on one end of the bolt so any rotational force you put on your sling could eventually loosen the bolt. Plus the tube is steel and has a cheap blued finish which no one should use on steel anymore. Still it's 9+1 capacity for your $230 AR-T02 for less than $60 shipped!

Keeps me from shooting my fingers off
Written on Feb 23, 2022
Review for
JE Machine Tech Sidewinder Blast Diffuser
I got this blast diverter for my Keltec CP-33. Adds and additional 2.125" of the OAL length to that little .22lr blasta which keeps me from shooting my fingers on my support hand when using a handstop. It also makes the concussion of shooting less apparent when compared to a bare muzzle since it directs blast/concussion more forward. I like that it has "fencing" on the muzzle end and I suspect it reduces flash compared to an open ended flash can. I didn't notice any change in recoil impulse compared to a bare muzzle as well. This thing is phosphate coated and made from steel. Finish is so-so but it serves my needs nicely.

Good Castle Nut
Written on Aug 16, 2021
Review for
KAK AR-15 Mil-Spec Castle Nut
This is a legit, properly made AR-15 castle nut. The stake notches are ramped and are not "blind", as in, the notch in which you stake some of material of the end plate into has reduced volume/capacity since they're not cut all the way through.

Great H2 Buffer for a Great Price
Written on Jul 10, 2021
This is a true 4.5 oz. H2 carbine buffer and it works as expected. At the time that I purchased it was $21.99, which is a very fair price for H2 buffers. I use this H2 buffer in my suppressed 10.5" AR pistol with a standard carbine spring and helps deal with the effects of a massively over gassed AR pistol by slowing the BCG down more than the 3.0 buffer that it replaced. If you need a H2 buffer, this one works perfectly.

Recieved Defect

Review for
AIM Sports Inc Aim Point T1 Mount
The mount I received had screws holes that were NOT aligned with Aimpoint T1 screws holes, which I've seen reported on other websites. Also the mount had lots of cosmetic flaws (dents, scratches, poor annodization) which ISN'T a deal breaker by itself. Promptly returned since I literally couldn't use it.
Low profil but almost too small
Written on Apr 12, 2021
The link curved foregrip/handstop is useful in providing me a low profile spot to pull and anchor my AR-15 to my body. I use it as a handstop with the back of my pinky pushing back on the gun into my body. I have slim hands so this thing's main "protrusion" is just tall enough to prevent my pinky from rolling over it. If it were any smaller then it might not be very useful as a handstop. But it works as is, for me. It is also compatible with KeyMod and MLOK which is convenient.
Adjusts fast, simple operation

Review for
Magpul MS1 Multi-Mission Sling
I have multiple MS1 slings and they are very excellent slings. They adjust quickly and don't lose their place. I have mine set up with QD attachment points on an AR-15 and this sling allows me to rapidly sinch the rifle up against my body and then rapidly loosen it for fast aiming with out being hindered in any way. Plus the sling is sufficiently wide so that carriage of a 10 lbs. rifle can be comfortablely done.
