Honestly this rail is well built and once adjusted it is absolutely 100% solid. I just put 800 rounds down my AR this morning using 62gr rounds and this thing stayed tight. Tighter than ... well ... never mind this is amazon.

I'll say this. I have a really nice and custom AR and usually I don't skimp on things. I got this because I needed it overnight and it was right in front of me. It is staying on my AR that I use on a consistent basis for patrol, practice, competition, and everything else. I probably have about 2k into the AR as it sits and I see no reason to swap this piece out for a DD or LaRue or anything like that. Perfectly functional and durable.

It is actually NCStar (the listing I bought said Weaver and was sold and fulfilled by Amazon via the Prime! Yay!) which is decent-ish on their reputation - at the end of the day this thing is aluminum and milspec. It has plenty of room for mounting scope rings on top of it etc. All you have to really do is adjust a small set screw and bing bang boom you are done and it is mounted up. Took me 5 minutes. A little Kroil or CLP on the springs helps tons with removal and installation as far as taking it on and off and in general.

I have no idea what or why people are complaining which is why I have taken the time to write this review. I almost didn't buy it because of the whining and complaining on here. I am here to tell ya'll honestly that there is no reason to not purchase this rail. 100% good to go!

Nothing spectacular either way, fair fit and finish, solid. The clamp lever is adjustable for clamping force, however when I have it adjusted for what I feel is a secure clamp, it won't completely release from the rail with just the lever. I have to release the lever AND loosen the screw to get the side clamp to clear the rail. So, it may not fit your needs in a life and death situation. But if you have a minute or two, it will release without needing more than your fingers to loosen the screw after releasing the lever. My results were as mounted on a Colt 6920LE.

Keep in mind, I give this mount 4 stars because it does work and it is less than a quarter the cost of most of the others out there. Just make sure that you pay attention when you are re-mounting it to your rail because the aluminum is not "aircraft-grade" or "hard-anodized" or something. It will bend out of shape if it is not fully seated on the rail and you apply enough pressure to the locking mechanism. I was able to hammer it back in shape but who knows what that did to its overall strength and stability.

I will say, though, that even with the abuse I put it through a scope on this does stay zeroed if you lock it back in the same place. Overall, it is worth the money but I wouldn't send this out to our troops or anything.
