would buy again.  Volume for 3.5mm input is low so don't think these are headphone substitutes - is audible though. The sound attenuation circuit is snappy and does exactly what it's supposed to do.. no deaf ears yet. Personally i still wear ear plugs under these...and would recommend doing this if you are running a compensated AR etc.. as they are loud as hell,  but that would go for any set of cans.

For duty use, it can hold an AR scoped but not with a lot of accessories. (And if you have a crapload of accessories on your rifle, you're doing it wrong anyway.)

The quality of the clasps is why I took off a star. They're cheaply made and likely to break if you go Thor on them.

For my uses, the case has a low storage profile and easily fits in the back of my vehicle protecting the overpriced scopes on my AR. I keep my mags in the go-bag right beside it, but there is a bit of room for a mag and other small accessories inside of the case.

The foam padding is cheap and not secured to the case, but velcro is a wonderful thing if I decided that it really bothered me.

This case is exactly the same case that Daniel Defense AR's come in. I have a DD that came in this case, and oddly enough the external cut-out designs of the case allows two of these cases to literally lock in together, like puzzle pieces. Nifty perk if you have more than one rifle (or plan on dual wielding rifles and screaming "GET INTO DA CHOPPA!")

Bought this for my AR carbine.

Pros: Seems solidly made. Price was decent. Covers a carbine length AR with a little left over. Will probably reach for the rifle as well. Breaks up the outline, has holes big enough for manipulating controls.

Cons: Even though the ad shows it wrapping an AR, problems arise when trying to use the charging handle. Brass also sometimes has trouble clearing the ejection port. You can mod both issues by cutting the wrap as needed. You'll just need to make sure it lines back up when its re-installed.

I mounted it on top of my scope on my 22 and it seemed to be fairly consistent. The only thing that I can see being a problem at this point in the game is the adjustment screws and brightness.

Adjustment screws: I had to almost remove the adjustment screws to get it zeroed with windage. Elevation was pretty easy to get.

Brightness: Someone commented about it being really bright, that is true when you are pointing it around in the house, but in the middle of the day outside when there is snow all over the ground, it looked like the battery was almost dead. However, when I got back inside it was as bright as could be. With that, I would probably buy it again if I had to do it all over again knowing what I know. I did manage to hit a rabbit on the run from about 20 yards so it is pretty effective for a sight.

Update a few years later.
It's still working, which is always a plus. I had it mounted, as said before, to the top of my scope for a while, I tried making it the main sight on my 22 and it worked like a charm. Held a 1 inch group at about 30 yards using a table for a rest. Just last night I tried attaching it to my SPR for S&G and it actually did pretty good, I mounted it on a UTG QD riser so I could take it off and put it back on hopefully maintaining zero. I didn't get a chance to take it off and put it back on for the zero hold because it started raining, but it held up to the recoil of the AR for at least 100 Rounds.

Summary: For 30 bucks, its probably a 5 star rating, but I am going to keep it at 3 so I don't mislead anyone, it is not an Aimpoint or EOTech obviously, so don't expect fine adjustments and quality like you would get with those. If you want to gamble and don't really care if you waste 30 bucks, give it a shot, but if you want something that will impress your friends and never break, don't buy this.

As with all ATI products I needed to do a little fine tuning to make this fit perfect. Butttttttt ATI tells u that in the description... So if you cant do a little work on something or use your head a little to figure out what needs to be done you probably shouldn't be working on (or own for that matter) a firearm. Even though you don't have to figure it out since they give u descriptive pictures telling you what needs to be done... I only give it 4 stars because I do have cheerio sized spot on the bottom of the stock that is light grey and rough from where the stock was snapped off the mold they use. A simple fix would have been to have the plastic injection point be on the same spot they put the sling studs... duh. All in all a good piece and I enjoy a little thinking and putting a little work into something.

I have to question the mechanical/troubleshooting ability of the other two reviewers.

This part, like most parts for firearms and optics, requires a little 'peak & tuning' to make it fit and function on your individual weapon. It is designed and built to accommodate a multitude of rails, etc ... and has the ability to be adjusted to fit yours.

One reviewer claims it won't stay latched; well, tighten the locking latch screw to where it needs to be and apply a little red threadlocker.

The other reviewer has a similar complaint; again, just tighten it up and forget about it.

This mount is hardy and well built. I use it on an AR15 pistol, an M1 Carbine Scout mount and a Ruger SR556 piston driven AR rifle.

Nice piece of kit for the money.

I initially mounted this scope on my AR, and have used it in about half a dozen outings. I found that I was really fighting with it, usually spending a good amount of ammo on constantly sighting and fixing. I will say, it is what it is, an under $100 scope, that I attempted on a .223 platform. There are hundreds of reviewers here that have been happy with this setup on an AR, but it just didn't work for my use (150 yards or less, mostly 100). When it was on, it was on. It just never stayed. You really need to have a strong understanding of MOA, scope centering and sighting, field of view, point of impact, etc, but especially with the cheaper scopes, as the adjustments will be crude and course. With higher end optics, the settings and adjustments are smooth and precise. I was able to mount this to my son's 10/22, and hopefully that will be an appropriate application. So if you are considering this for an AR, (just my 2 cents), there are plenty of lower cost options available slightly above the low end UTG products that offer much more.

I needed some additional elevation to my optic to get it over the front sight post. This was exactly the ticket and offers the benefit of additional mounting points on the angled rail. Other than that, all it does is cover the rail on a flat-top receiver, so it is the same length as your flat top receiver... any additional rail points are created by the 45 degree angled rail on the side.
Pros:
- Adds elevation to get optic to view clearly through/over front sight post  without having to go to a high-rise mount. It is not visible in my scope.
- Quick detach system is pretty awesome. Can be adjusted for a tight fit (not too tight, though or you can damage your flat top receiver!) and the optic can be removed while still attached to this piece and retain its accuracy when re-installed. I am not a competition shooter, but my 50 and 100 yard groups were virtually unchanged when removing this and putting it back on.
- Angled rail is nice for accessories and allows you to maintain available rail space even if your optic takes all of the top of this one.
- Seems strong and durable with minimal, yet well constructed moving parts.

Cons
- Weight. The weight of my rifle is greater and I feel it more than I thought I would.
- If overtightened, it can damage your flat top rail. Be cautious when installing. I did lightly damage one of my rail pieces because I pushed the tab too hard instead of adjusting it.

I recommend it if you are looking for height. There is a weight tradeoff, but I'm good with it.

I saw a few reviews saying that this didn't have a matching finish and that instead of using hex wrenches, it used a Philips head screw. I had neither of these issues and I do like this product. The only thing that I have issue with this is the same issue I would have with any site like this is the fact that it makes the rifle take up much more space in the safe or in my case.
Of course, an AR-15 or any gun with a picitiny style rail has enough customization that it'll take more space in your safe or case because of the accessories you can put on it.
This is my real only issue with it but that's to be expected.
Other than that, this was a great product for the price and I would definitely recommend it.

Finally got to the range yesterday and was able to zero in my scope with no problems.  Like the locking feature on the elevation and windage knobs.  Quick adjustments and had it hitting nice groupings at 50 and 100 yards in no time.  As many have said, this scope is just as advertised.  Good clear optics and functions nicely.  The one important thing to remember is using Loctite on the screws for the scope rings as well as the mount.  I've run about 80 rounds through my AR with this scope on.  I did apply loctite to the scope rings, but forgot the mount screws which I only tightened hand tight.  After about 20 rounds, the mount fasteners were coming loose.  Just a dab of loctite on those and it will be fine.  If you're older like me, you'll need to take the cover off the rear optic so you can adjust the focus (no way to do that with the cover installed).  The 1-4 zoom was perfect for what I wanted.  At mag of 1, you can quickly sight almost as well as a red dot, but at 4x, you can see out to 100 yards no problem and place nice clean groupings.  Well worth the money.  I only gave it 4 out of 5 due to the poor mount design.  I think they could easily improve that to something more positive and perhaps even put a locking feature on the threads to prevent it from backing off.  Otherwise, great little scope and I'm very happy with it.  MUCH better than the "do everything 3 in 1" scope I paid less for, but was total garbage.  Returned that one and got this one and am MUCH happier!  You get what you pay for, but for the price, this one fits the bill!

If you build a lot of AR's, then you should have one of these.  I have built a lot of AR's.  And while I can install the trigger guard pins easy enough with a punch, this tool makes it a snap.

Works great, looks clear. I like the 'pull back to swing down' locking feature, which locks up tight. Flipping it up is as simple as, well, flipping it up. Works great behind a red dot or holographic sight and you can adjust windage and elevation to keep the dot/reticle centered if needed. Eye relief is *just* a tad short, so if you are using it in front of a rear BUIS on an AR you might have to move your cheek weld forward a bit, otherwise placing it in the second most rear slot seems to work fine. I am using it behind a Sightmark Ultra Shot Pro, and both fit fine on a AR flattop rail without a rear BUIS. The QD mount is secure and rezeros after removal (not that thats a big thing behind a red dot), but is non-adjustable as it seems they used locktite on the clamp bolt.

This thing is stout, tight and has a high build quality. You cannot go wrong with it.

Worked great for my needs.  Previously the barrel on my AR had a slight but noticeable cant.  Used the lapping tool on the upper receiver for a few minutes.  With the first pass you could easily see 'peaks' where the receiver was not squared.  Product worked flawlessly.  Barrel and receiver fit much not solidly and that cant has been removed.  Very happy with results.

I purchased this product to be able to put a sling on my AR, and this works like a charm.  I store my AR without the sling so I don't get bother with installed piece when the sling is not on.  this is always on my quad rail and when I go open carry with my AR I just grab the sling plug it in and here we go.

Great piece of kit for anyone wanting an alternative rail location other than on their hand guards. The bonus is the QD mount built in on both sides.
Just note that it is super soft aluminum and you'll strip the threads easily. Be smart and use purple thread locker and avoid giving it the extra little tightening you think you need to.
If you are a Ruger AR556 owner, this will not fit your FSB without modification to either the FSB or the mount. The Ruger AR556 FSB is a proprietary design & not milspec.

Do yourself a favor, don't bother mounting a rifle scope without this.

Works great on the quad rail I installed on my NPAP. Does not co-witness on the NPAP with a normal forend quadrail (although I can see the top 1/6th or so of the front sight post, which was helpful for adjusting the dot from left-to-right). It might 1/3 cowitness with a lower-sitting gas tube quad rail. Held zero with no issues after 200 rounds of 7.62.
