Good HD ammo
Written on Sep 21, 2022
I’ve been using this at the range to test it and have had zero issues. It’s less expensive yes, but it still goes bang and peppers the target with OO buck. No ejection or FTF issues so I’ll keep buying it.

Great budget red dot

Review for
SIG SAUER Romeo7 1x30mm Red Dot Sight
I picked this up years back, when it was twice the price. I’ll admit that I was hoping it was Aimpoint ‘ish, but budget level. Meh, it’s definitely not that level, but at its current price it makes a great budget scope for my .22 semi automatic rifles.
Perfect fit to my new Anarchy Outdoors swept handles
Written on Jan 22, 2022
Like the title implies, I recently added swept handles from Anarchy Outdoors to my Tikka T1X and Bergara B14R rifles. I searched multiple knobs with the new thread pitch and found this one. Price wasn’t bad and it looked better than several others I found. After they arrived and were installed I could not believe the difference that both the handle and the larger size of this knob made. Finish is matte and matches the receiver and barrel better than the gloss or blingy look of others also. Good upgrade and glad I found them.
Decent 3 lug for half the price of most others

Kaw Valley Precision 3 Lug Barrel Adapter
I built several 9mm and 300 Blackout uppers and needed 3 lug adapters to use with my suppressor. I first started out with some high end, very expensive mounts at 2 to almost 3 times the price. I tried this one and found them perfect for my use. I did come across one that was out of spec and wouldn’t allow the suppressor to mount. That was one purchased on eBay from Joe Bob’s. I returned it and they randomly blocked me from future purchases. That is what lead me to Opticsplanet and why I purchased so many of these 3 lug mounts from them!

Perfect fit for Primary Arms red dots

Midwest Industries Aimpoint T-1 QD Mount
I like my PA red dots, but dislike the mounts with the cheaper ones and the lack of a mount with the higher priced ones, so I found this MI QD mount and haven’t looked back. Fit and finish is perfect and install is easy. They lock down tight and release quickly, holding zero on reinstall. Very happy I found these.

Tough as nails

Review for
SIG SAUER Romeo7 1x30mm Red Dot Sight
This was my first red dot purchase about 5 years ago. I have had it on multiple rifles, been rough with it, left it on for weeks at a time…and it still works great. Finish is tough, but mine definitely has seen lots of wear. It hasn’t affected its zero and it keeps chugging. I am back to buy another, if that says anything.

Easy swap for a reliable release

Review for
Wilson Combat Slide Release
I swap out most slide releases on my 1911’s with these Wilson Combat versions. Better serrations and grip, when needed. Better finish than OEM. Also super easy to replace and always reliable. I won’t use anything else.
Best scope mount I’ve found

Review for
Warne Gen 2 Extended Skeletonized MSR Mount
I admit that I started out cheap, spending more money on the scope and weapon but skimping on the mount. After replacing multiple cheap mounts, I should have saved my money and purchased the Warne mount to begin with. I’ve used over a dozen of these and have had no issues, even after moving them multiple times to different weapons. Durable, lightweight and worth the added cost. I don’t skimp anymore and rely on Warne mounts solely for all of my optics.
Great replacement for VLTOR A5 tubes
Written on Jul 12, 2021
I have a dozen A5 setups with upgraded Sprinco “green” springs, various H1, H2 and H3 buffers (A5 style), but only one VLTOR buffer tube. I found early on that these are the same quality, look great and function and most likely…are in stock, unlike VLTOR. Never a hiccup out of any of them and I will keep using them. Glad to see OP selling them.

Great trigger for the price
Written on Jul 05, 2021
Review for
HIPERFIRE Enhanced Duty Trigger 3 AR Fire-Control Group w/Duplex Trigger, 4.5/5.5lb Pull Weight
I’ve used several Hiperfire triggers, ranging in price from $75 to $300 and all have been great, as well as their customer service. Why I like about this one in particular is the feel of the trigger shoe itself. The reviews don’t do it justice. The feel of the flat and the curve together giving you the option in pull weight by the fulcrum of where you place your finger is awesome. My finger easily finds the sweet spot on the shoe and the break is smooth, with very little creep. Compared to my ALG triggers, this is slightly more consistent in the pull and strikes harder, based on the geometry of the hammer system.
