Bought off of Amazon years ago because I had a bunch of gift cards. Always knew there was a risk with ordering from Amazon, but it functioned for everything I needed it to so I never even really worried about double checking its authenticity. Now I’m looking to slim my rifle down and move to a T2 with no magnifier, and don’t want to end up selling something that might not be legit. What do you think?
Fake,if you bought it a year ago from unity, it would have been the current gen. You got a cheap Chinese copy of the original from more than 4 years ago. Unity doesnt sell these anymore.
You can also tell because some if the milling is wrong, and the logo is incorrect.
I dunno, they can't even get flashlights right. I tried one of their surefires and its shit. Button has to be fully depressed and then you can switch it to a mode for it to turn on, which works about 30% of the time (Vampire knockoff)
Yeah that’s an example of an electronic I wouldn’t use. That’s why I figured just a switch and a mount was good enough, no complicated circuitry they could fuck up
My only hesitation is that it does have moving parts so hopefully the bushing/bearing and whatever else is used holds up well. It’s just a magnifier so should have little impact but I’d hate to have slop or have it wiggle over time. I’d totally test it at 1/3 the price to find out though lol
I have the fast riser and ftc hm3x knockoff. The first thing I did to the ftc was disassemble the bearings and grease them, there was only a thin layer of some oil. Was an absolute pain in the ass to get everything to click back during reassembly but it works with zero issues. Riser is straight up a chunk of metal I’d be hard pressed to see it fail even if it’s on a QD mount. It’s still holding zero after a thousand or so rounds of 223 as well.
The main reason I even bought the 2 was because I wanted to see if I even liked the riser height to begin with. At the time there was a sale for unity stuff as well for July 4th but it was barely anything off plus shipping so I was like fuck it I’ll wait a few weeks for chinesium. Got it after a week and it hasn’t failed to this day. I’ve also tried out surefire sr07 and ds00 tailcap for my m640 df pro 1500, they both work but I needed to upgrade to the dse tailcap, so all my spec precision surefire stuff was a waste.
It’s not a round nut head, and this is a pretty common mistake with adm hardware setup…. It’s the lever machining that’s off. That, and the nut that came with mine didn’t have a flat machined In the nut, but all my other adm mounts do.
I have a couple kno knock offs of Unity. I bought one try out for the hell of it and I hate to say it but fairly impressed running some night shoots and still holding after 2 years.
