Not bad for price,

I used this to mount UTG Bug Buster 3-9X32 Compact CQB Combat AO Scope on a flat top AR. The 2 worked well together. Mount puts scope at a good height. I can look threw scope with my front sight not being in the way. Everything locked up very tight and feels sturdy. I like the way the mount looks. The finish isn't perfect, somewhat uneven, but ARs aren't really pretty guns so I didn't care.
The mount came without any instructions but it wasn't very hard to figure out. When I was adjusting and tightening the screw which sets how tight the lever locks the mount the head of the screw started to get deformed and seemed a little soft. This didn't cause a problem and I just guess I should have been gentler. Release lever does work good and although the unit wasn't perfect comparable mounts coast over $100 so I am happy with it.

This review is from: NcStar AR15 QR Weaver Mount/ Cantilever Scope Mount Rear Ring/30mm and 1" Inserts (MARCQ) (Sports)
The quick release lever on this mount is exactly what I wanted. However, for the application I am using it in, the scope sits much higher than necesary. A half inch lower and it would be perfect in every aspect.

M&P15 Owners Beware,

I heard from a previous M&P15 owner that this did not fasten to his flat top properly, and I had the same problem. It will not fasten straight or flush or even sinch up tight, therefore it is useless for my application.
As for scope placement, it is great. I had a previous mount that placed the scope low and my stock A2 front sight was obstructing too much of the image. This mount however places my 3-9x40 Redfield almost dead center with my front sight post and "felt" great.
I am disappointed that I wont be able to use this. If there was a similar mount without the quick release I would have chosen that one. Good luck to future buyers, unfortunately I will be returning this product.
