Bought for my PSA Gen3 PA10, good mount and love the extra picatinny that comes with it. The only down side is, when you have the extra picatinny on the same side as the quick release…there is barely any room to get your fingers on the quick release. The quick release and the picatinny are actually touching to the point where they rub against one another, nothing that a little filing can't remedy.

This mount is pretty sturdy. I put my Vortex scope on it.Just have not gone to see how it holds up after putting some bullets down range.

Theoretically, this should work great and I was looking forward to getting it for my new Saint Victor AR rifle. However, the cams are too small to tighten on the Picatinny rail; it's sloppy loose – I even tested it on the included rail for the red dot. Also with this mount, my Swampfox Arrowhead LPVO 1-10X24 scope is too close to the flip-up rear sight and would rub just a tiny bit (yes, in the down position). I don't need a quick disconnect mount if I have to remove the flip-up rear sight to get adequate clearance.

This is definitely not worth the money even if they were giving it away! Would not tighten enough on rail, which makes the mount completely useless. Just a junk product! Nothing on this mount was made with quality! Really would have liked a refund but missed it by one day! Oh well, at least I have a paper weight!

This came with my NcStar 1-6 LPVO. I know I'm at the bottom end of the scope world, but I have to say that both the scope and the mount have proven themselves over about 700 rds through my AR15. I like the height of this mount, and it did take some playing around to get the lever tension just right, but I've had my scope on and off the rifle 3 times and to my surprise it kept zero. Note I pay careful attention to where it's mounted and since it fits into the slots it's pretty easy to get it back where it was. Now mind you I'm not shooting 1/2" groups at 200yds, but for just some range shooting while I learn what I'm doing I'm very happy with this mount. What sucks is I'd like another but I'm spoiled because mine came with the scope for about a $20 difference at the time, so it's hard to accept the $60 price for it. I also like the cantilever style which works great for my gun. It's only aluminum so you have to be careful when tightening it down, it doesn't seem like it would take too much to break it. Right now it's a decent option if you're not ready to spend $200 on a Midwest Industries mount. Yeah I know the whole "buy once cry once" deal but it's hard to spend $200 to mount your $1000 scope on a $600 base AR15. This does the job for now, when I move up I'll probably sell the gun, scope and mount as a kit to someone else starting out. BTW the additional 45-offset mount is a nice feature but I don't use it and took it off (note that you can switch it to either side though).

May be ok for a small caliber build. I stripped one of my screws easily and find the unit heavy and relatively poorly made. I would say use lighter, independent mounts for your optics, unless your really on a budget.
