Considering the low price, my expectations were not high. But, fit and finish were fine. And since I only intend to use this case to transport my tactical shotgun to/from the outdoor range, it should do the job well enough. My only complaint is that the zipper tags don't have the usual holes to accept a padlock so I can't use this case to transport my AR-15 to a range.

I like this MI optic mount, but it basically came apart when I took it to the range to zero my red dot. I mounted it good and tight, and was near Zero on the first shot and pretty much 'dead center' within 10 rounds. I then took the optic mount off my WASR-10, and reinstalled it to make sure it held Zero. Within the next 20 rounds, I started losing Zero and was way off at 100 yards where I had been hitting metal targets easily before. Kept trying to adjust my red dot but no luck regaining Zero. So I took the optic mount off again after a total of 50 rounds, and saw the bolts holding the lower and upper parts had come loose. I called MI's tech support who said this was unusual 'out-of-the-box', and agreed that a thread-locker (like Loctite Blue, etc.) should prevent this from happening again. I'm hopeful my next range visit will turn out better because I like the design and function of this forward bias Gen2 mount.

I'm impressed by how well this loader works. But despite the "How To" videos on You Tube, you have pace yourself when loading your mags. The only times I experienced "jams", I went too fast and had to clear the loader (not fun). My best speed was just a bit slower than one round per second. Additional Note: The 7.62x39 version (AK-47) cannot be mounted mid table due to the curvature of the larger magazines. Either insert those mags while holding the loader in your hand or mount the loader near a table edge.

No matter what I tried, I could not get these to snap onto my AR's keymod handrail. I pushed, pressed, prodded and finally pounded, but no go. I called Noveske's Customer Service line and they told me the keymod rail on my Radical Firearms upper was not "standard size". Funny how everything else fits on those rails just fine. So I wasted the cost of two panel sets. I strongly recommend you look at alternatives.

Just got delivery of the Strike Industries Curved Foregrip today. Haven't installed it yet, but I'm not anticipating a problem with my key mode hand guard (I'm an optimist). What does strike me (no pun intended) is that this is not a very large or particularly complicated metal piece. I'm just having some trouble figuring out why it costs over $35, other than that's what Strike Industries thinks they can get. I'll probably keep it, but again the price is a bit annoying.

No surprise considering this is a Magpul product. It fits and looks great on my Remington 870 SGA Magpul stock. Took only a few minutes to install and works great as a mount for either 1 or 2 point slings. My only complaint is that it's overpriced considering the simplicity of the product and how long it's been on the market.

This is perfect for transporting my scoped rifles to the range. Price is very reasonable and it provides good protection with multiple locking points (with a small padlock). The interior padding ensures your scoped rifle is secure, protected, and won't be knocked out of zero.

But, I don't think this would provide enough protection for transporting a rifle on a plane

I was concerned about how snugly this would fit on the 40mm eyepiece. The cover fit snugly and has shifted at all. It snaps shut and stays shut during transport and while at the range. Very pleased with fit and price.

I bought a CMMG Lower Parts Kit to build out my AR lower. Some of the parts required a bit fitting, but overall all went well with that first build. So, I ordered a second CMMG kit to complete my last remaining stripped lower.

But, when the second CMMG Lower Parts Kit arrived, the hammer spring was missing. Bummer. I called OpticsPlanet and more than a week later I still hadn't received the missing part from CMMG. So, OpticsPlanet stepped up and shipped me a complete new CMMG Lower Parts Set at no cost. Further, OpticsPlanet discounted the purchase to make up for all the inconvenience.

In the end, I'm disappointed with CMMG quality control but VERY pleased with OpticsPlanet and their Customer Service Team.

I've had the larger version of this UTG Super Duty bipod for a few years now. It works great so I went with the smaller version for my new AR. So far, it also seems solid. The only thing is it doesn't swivel like the taller version. There's a little play, but not enough to be functional. Regardless, I recommend this bipod.
