Red dot looks good and strong for the money. Seems to hold zero pretty well after 500 round or so. Caps are very tight and well made as well providing a good seal for the lenses, they are a little tough to flip down at first. Glass clarity is pretty good. The biggest con I have for this sight and all Holosun tube style sights is the front glass. When the set the glass in the front at a cant they do not have timed edges on the glass nor do they fill the gaps left in any way. This makes it look unfinished and you can even see the glue on the exposed edges. Im not sure how the glass stays put so well sitting like this. Its not a huge issue with this style because the flash kill hides it fairly well. I have check multiple other brands around the same price point and this doesn't seem to be an issue with them. They shape the edges better or hide it with a retaining ring. The dot is also slightly distorted as well. I do not have a stigmatism.

After searching for quite some time for the best brace for my new 300BLK build I finally decided to take the hit on this one. The brace looks good and has a very solid feel to it. After using it several times I'm now able to deploy it without depressing the latch, couldn't do so when it was new which is understandable due to the strong build and tolerances used.
I think this is the best brace on the market at this moment. with that being said there are some things that I believe should be addressed. The false castle nut on the buffer tube has small ridges on it for grip when tightening it I presume. These ridges protrude slightly past the lower allowing the charging handle to hit it. This doesn't seem to hinder the functionality but after a couple uses it does strip the black off of the buffer and leaves bare aluminum. The second issue I have is the finish on the inside of the buffer tube. Which is the biggest issue. The tube is left with micro ridges from front to back. I made the mistake of buying this brace with the standard style buffer and spring which rubs the ridges all the way down and forward when charging or firing the weapon. It makes a pretty loud and annoying sound (cant imagine what it sound like suppressed)I have some way cheaper buffer tubes that are smooth with virtually no sound. I had to break down an buy the JP captured spring and buffer to fix this issue. Which would have been done to begin with if I would have known. Shouldn't be issues at this price.
