You can disassemble China made equipment and make them more robust for the element.

I own both real items and some Chinese items and I hate to say it but the Chinese are ALMOST as good, if the knock off products stepped up their quality just a little they would be equal as real products at a fraction of the cost.

I like what your doing on the channel and wish to repay you with important modifications on a scope as well as an IR (infra red) flashlight you showcased on the channel recently. I purchased several of the Discovery Opt 3-12x44 SFIR (side focus, illuminated reticle) scopes and proceeded with testing and trials. Its not waterproof but is fairly easy to make waterproof with some inexpensive parts and detailed work. Argon gas is optional, I have it with my TIG welder The Cyansky K3-i8 ir flashlight is a good value however is overpowering with nods at CQB distances, an inexpensive diffuser solves that problem exceptionally well with a smooth 180 degree spill but it too has to be modified. Both work great with these robust mods. and will make these devices more usable and effective long term.

Funny coming across this, because i did order a few unity knock off risers. Just to see if i like the height and function, instead of paying 250 to try. I just spend like 80 on 2 different ones. And it got me thinking to take one. Have the top part milled down flat so that way. I could have a small plate fitted to a red dot, and have kind of a universal riser.

I look at them as a cheap trial/rental option. Would I take them into combat, no. Would I slap them on a range gun, yup 🤷‍♂️

DO A DROP TEST 😈

I would, but I sold it to my friend 😂 Im getting a collection of Chinese made pistol red dots though. When I get a few more, Im going to try to destroy them to see which is the most durable 😎

Everything is for the name lol None of these companies should be charging more than car parts.. as for the made in USA. I guess, assuming the product are being made by us citizens to justify the whole jobs/ made in America part.

A name, development cost and QC are usually why they cost more. Im fine paying a higher price for good QC, but lately Ive seen a lot of “high end” equipment fail just as often as the Chinese stuff. Im assuming components are still bought from China on a lot of name brand stuff.

Or just support American made

90% of what you own is made is China 🤷‍♂️

Aluminum is aluminum when it comes to risers. Unity doesn't use magic aluminum or magic screws. Black finish/anodizing may be different but who cares about that. Just use loctite.

Id be curious to see how much pressure it took to bend a cheap mount vs a Unity.

Not all aluminum is the same there is different grades and these are cast not milled which means the grain structure is weaker so your comment shows the utter stupidity of JuStAsGoOD
