[QUOTE="OKNewshawk, post: 4108948, member: 6592"] I've not meant to hold out but I've been in a program called Amazon Vine for a few weeks now. It's an invitation-only program where you can request products to be sent to you for evaluation at no cost to you...until tax time, where you'll get a Form 1099 totaling up the value of all the items you've been given! Anyway, aside from things like salt and pepper grinder sets, paper towel holders, cheese graters, and assemble it yourself bookcases, they have a selection of sports and outdoors products, including a section for hunting and fishing. I look for firearms-related items to review. So far, I've received from the program: Three 9mm laser boresights Two sets of AR-style backup iron sights A Tagula Gunleather 1836 holster An ACETAC Triple 5.56 Magazine Elastic Insert Holder for Chest Rig I also received a funky little device that's advertised as a "2nd Gen Dry Fire Laser Target Portable Trainer." I discovered that it's actually sensitive to [U]all[/U] light (and, when a flashlight set on strobe is pointed at the [S]toy[/S] trainer, it sounds like a machine gun going off.) I haven't had a chance to write a review for that one yet... Also, I'm conflicted about one of the sets of BUIS I received. It looks like either an exact replica of a Magpul MBUIS, right down to the same logos, or they sent me a pair instead of their own product. I'm wondering because the pictures in the product listing do not resemble the sights I received. It's either an attempt to cheat the system by sending me a superior item or just another example of a Chinese company counterfeiting an American designed and made product. Except for a few items, just about everything I've received has been made in China. The Tagua holster, for example, was made in Paraguay. I'll probably offload a lot of this stuff after the mandatory six month hold on any Vine items received but there are some things I've been searching for that I managed to find on Vine. [/QUOTE]
