If you’re going to war it would matter but for playing at the range it’s just wasting money to throw your stuff on the ground. And for SHTF if you don’t have options well why are you bothering.

I believe people often confuse "duty-rated" with "combat-ready." There is a common misconception that duty-rated equipment is essential for law enforcement officers (LEOs); however, only about 25% of LEOs actually use their weapons in the line of duty. Furthermore, a very small percentage of military personnel are issued handguns. In this context, there is a genuine need for durable equipment, but it primarily serves a small group of individuals. Manufacturers are aware of how easily people can be persuaded, which is why they market their high-priced optics and other gear using terms like "duty-rated."

Bro id say if somebody just wanted to buy a riser or a mount for their sight and magnifier, there is no reason to pay out the ass for these mechanisms. I’ll stay with a tested knock off all day on that stuff. When it comes to the glass I’ll spend on that for sure. You don’t need an expensive mounting system. Just a mounting system that will stay in place. That’s what matters on the mount. As long as it does not interfere with the sight or magnifier. The Amazon mount I bought for my eotech and FTC for the magnifier both look better than the ones you got. You must have got one of the original knock offs😅😅. Those are bulky as hell.

You are spot on!!! I try not to modify the gun too much but this trigger was a confusing experience. My M&P shield has zero resistance on the take up. But this had a long squishy take up, with an unidentifiable wall, along with excess over travel. But once you add the Johnny Glock OEM curved trigger for $22 bucks and the take up can be adjustable, to nearly eliminated. Also depressing the safe action part of the trigger is sooooo much less painful on your finger. The modified OEM trigger and Ghost 3.5lb connector are mandatory for the 43x!

@ This is a very good option for use past 50 yards with gen 3 nvgs. Inside of 50 yards, its too bright and will auto-gate your nvgs. The tape switch is meh, but its the brightest IR flashlight Ive used. I cant speak on the others you mentioned, since Ive never used them. Its significantly brighter than my Surefire M640 Vampire IR, if that helps. a lot of it delends on the range you need IR light for. Based on the Amazon page, I can almost guarantee it’s better than the Darkbeam. the KL52 IR looks like it uses a cheap style dome lens for focus, so it probably isnt that bright. i could be wrong though.
