Switches between my .22 and .338 upper and unlike a QD sling stud it moves more freely on the QD hole on the HDPDW brace. Perfect match if you use the HDPDW brace!

Update - the windage is spot on. Long story short, there was something else at play when I reported 1/2 moa clicks for windage. I shot 6 groups of ten shots at two different windage and it was spot on for all groups.

I bought a second scope same as the first as well - I really like GPO products and after being a Leupold only scope guy (vari-x 3 and vx-3 primarly) for 30 years, I switched to GPO after trying their 8x56mm binoculars. The binos offered a much wider FOV at 8x than my previous 7x50mm from another name brand. I prefer this scope to my Leupold vx-3 3.5-10x50mm and my 4.5-14x50mm.

The zero-stop elevation turret is also very clever. It takes a moment to read the instructions for how to set up, but once I figured it out it's excellent.

Scope has excellent glass, feels very high-quality, and I really like the rheostat like variable brightness for the illuminated center dot. Glass is better than my Leupold VX-3 scopes. The elevation turret is exactly 1/4 MOA per click but the windage is exactly 1/2 MOA per click… which is strange. I bought a second one for another gun so I’ll find out if both scopes are the same, or if I got a weird one.

Works and runs well with suppressor on PSA Rock 5.7 - quietest centerfire handgun I've ever used.

These rings are easier to take on and off. Fit and finish and quality is the same.

The main difference is that the quick release lever is longer, which gives more leverage. Also, the clamp threads are finer; less pressure is needed to get a firm clamp on a piccatiny rail. Overall, I prefer these to the Leopold.

I have a stainless 10/22 takedown that I wanted to use a night optic and a day optic on and this rail matches perfectly with the gun, and allows me to go between the optics using quick release mounts. Included fasteners are high quality, unlike a lot of the cheaper alternatives.

great fit and finish - if you are looking at the knock-offs on ebay don't waste your time (they say authentic and the sling/QD swivel combos have real packaging even). The Authentic Magpuls are far better.

Fit was too tight out of the box. Needed to stone the slide to fit. Also the trigger reset slide pin did not match up with slide and a dremel with a small grinding wheel was needed to elongate the well about 0.010” Lastly, the hammer spring in the pistol frame was about 25lb factory. Reduced to 17lb and now everything works extremely well. Over 200rds of Rem Gold Bullet with zero failures. Slide lubricated with Frog Lube. With a little work this conversion works extremely well and is a joy to shoot. I really like how the slide locks open on the last shot.

I bow hunt, rifle hunt, and musket hunt in Upper Michigan and our season lasts until the very last bit of daylight is gone. A high quality set of glass is paramount to identifying a deer or bear at a distance in that last magic 30 minutes of season. Previously, I used a set of Pentax 7x50 binoculars that were, what I thought, excellent for low light. They did fine and were essential to my success on a number of occasions.

GPO is much much better. I could go on about exit pupil and the physics of what makes for a good low-light set of glass, but the bottom line is that the field of view is nice and wide for 8x and it is very crisp edge to edge for this price point. Due to the limitations of the human eye, 8x56mm is about the best that can be achieved for a low-light hunting optic. Color and sharpness are more than acceptable for hunting. if I pull up my Leupold VX-3 4.5-14x50mm on 7x and compare, these binoculars are clearly better in light transmission and sharpness (and of coarse field of view because a scope is always a narrow FOV because its a scope).

If I spend $1500-2000 on a gun I use a few days a year, a set of $750 binoculars that I can use all season (bow, gun, musket) is not a bad value.

Once I got mine and tried them out it caught my Father's interest. Once he got a look he bought a pair. So mark this as two five-star ratings.

Outside of optics, the strap is very comfortable. The case is a bit tight and I use a different soft case most of the time. They are ver
