Its good enough. Thats about it. Theres not a whole lot going on here with this product. Finish is just metal. Seems strong enough to last. I have only used it to swap out a sling plate on my most recent m4 build. It worked, but didn't fit well.
Conclusion:
If your looking for the cheapest thing that will work and isn't complete garbage, this is for you.
***Purpose / Usage: M4 carbine (tactical setup. CQB to Medium range)
PRO'S
-large front surface: provides greater efficacy with regard to "nose to charging handle" style shooting. This one's kind of a double edged sword. The hammer does present a large surface with distinct texturing making both charging the weapon and developing consistent muscle/touch memory for fast target acquisition and aids in the development of natural point of aim.
-Material & Finish: Craftsmanship and finish seem to both be first-rate! Charging the weapon is like BUTTER; (especially the paired with a NiB BCG) making one-handed charging from either left or right sides a breeze! Zero imperfections in the finish, on the edges, roll marks (logo on the side) etc.
PRO/CON
-Color: The "HAMMER" IS NOT BLACK!!!!!!!!! its not even remotely close to anything resembling black. That being said, I didn't want black, so I'm happy. The color is ALMOST the same as a standard mil spec castle nut in direct sunlight.
****Note: Aside from the color, the finish its self picks up light. It looks very dark under indirect warm light, and looks MUCH brighter under direct cool light. At its brightest, I can still live with it as it is still dark enough to pass on a tactical weapon system (just barely IMO)
CON:
-Sharp edges on face and finger surfaces. I did read other reviews that said the same thing. I thought "How bad can it be?" and "Don't these people wear gloves?". Well, its s
