In My Own Words:
My eyes are too big for my wallet. I don't go shooting nearly often enough.

Well built and solid. I'm just glad these haven't caught on yet or the price would be triple.

I have this on my 300 BLK pistol. I went with it due to the well machined mounting bracket compared to the competition and the low profile mounting screws that give it a cleaner and flusher look, with less points of failure.
The adjustments are positive and secure, but being as this is on a 300 BLK pistol I don't have to make a lot of changes.
I'm running this with a Samson fixed front sight, and so far it's great.

Tames muzzle blast, but rather heavy
Written on Dec 14, 2018
Review for
Strike Industries SI Oppressor
The weight does assist in taming muzzle flip and the unit very effectively redirects the concussion from my King Comp, but it is rather heavy at 13.5 oz with the King Comp.
It works great, and looks rather bad*ssed. Being honest, it like it more for the aesthetics than the performance, but it does what it's intended to do rather well.

S Tactical keeps getting better
Written on Aug 01, 2018
I have an SBPDW and a Shockwave Blade; this is easily the best of the three options as far as pistol braces go.
I love the SBPDW and it's great, but has it's limitations, mainly that I can't use quick release receiver pins. The Blade is great on it's own, but can be uncomfortable under recoil (on the rare occasions that I shoulder it) and it doesn't retract.
This brace seems to do what both my previous braces do best.
They're still priced like they have a monopoly on the best hardware, probably because they do.

The best budget option for 300 BLK
Written on Jul 16, 2018
This may be the highest performance to price ratio optic available for a .300 BLK, and the ACSS reticle is fast and extremely effective. The glass is clear and crisp, but seems to suffer slightly from barrel distortion around the edges at lower magnifications, but it's slight enough that you won't see it unless you're looking for it and it in no way affects target acquisition.
The magnification change needs a throw lever, and is a little bit stiff, but The included lens caps are adequate albeit no frills, but I did wind up replacing the rear one with a Butler Creek.
Add in the lifetime warranty, and you have a very clear winner.

Fit and finish were a little better than your average NCStar product
Written on Mar 06, 2018
I just unboxed this and have yet to mount it, but initial examination would indicate that this is a relatively decent product; there were a few tiny holidays in the anodizing, but the casting of the metal parts was good. The A2 sight is functional and works as it should. The laser is bright and appears to track correctly.
Being honest, the laser is largely for show. In an actual Home defense/CQB situation, it's only to let your target know that they've been targeted in hopes that it will scare them off; my AR has a 1 MOA EOTech for actual aiming purposes. All a green laser does is give your position away. It might be fun at the range, but the EOTech does the same thing without drawing a direct line back to me. But if I can dissuade someone who may be breaking into my house with a big, bright green dot and not actually have to shoot them (because if I'm using this, they're about 1/10th of a second away from that actually happening) then it's more than worth it. I'm sure it's significantly more effective than yelling "Stop, I have a gun!".
With that said, all my buddies are going to want one :)

Well built and pretty much the best product of it's type at the moment
Written on Oct 04, 2017
Until someone comes out with something newer and better this appears to be the best wrist brace on the market.
It's remarkably easy to install; it only takes a few minutes after you get the buffer tube off.
It keeps my pistol legal, and gives me the features that I want.
I did run into a minor compatibility issue with my KNS take down pins as they sit pretty proudly and block it from going all the way in, but that was resolved with a grinder.
