[QUOTE="BallisticsGuy, post: 2015493, member: 96226"] The XLR industries unit came in. It's aluminum but not the kind they use in China I guess. It arrived literally 15 minutes before I was to leave for the range to do a zero check for an upcoming match. Installation was so trivially easy that I was able to remove the Farcebook unit and install the XLR unit and still leave with time to spare. This isn't a full review as I've not had too much time to play with it. It's a very cleverly designed unit that is not compatible with AR-15 platform rifles. It is basically specifically for bolt guns and is quite nice on a bolt gun. There's a TINY bit of wiggle in it when closed when you're just handling it. Enough to hear anyway. The lock is easy enough to disengage when done deliberately but also not set up so that you'll open it accidentally. When I got to the range I had no trouble knocking down a quick zero check and a .35" 3-shot group from the bench and any wiggle it might have had while just handling the rifle was not evident from behind the gun. There's no infringement of the space behind the grip so you can still hold the rifle with a full high grip without bumping the adapter or even worrying about it driving the thing into the back of your hand as the rifle moves forward again from heavy recoil. I have a match in a little over a week and I'll not be being gentle on it. We'll see how it handles the moon dust at the match venue. m0aR pics and crud to come. The UTG unit is supposed to be here today. This weekend I'll spend some more range time tinkering if I can. [/QUOTE]
