Put a piece of 7075 in a monarch mill and run the program, then put in a piece of 6061 and run the program. You get the exact same parts just made of different material. 6061 may not be as strong but for consumer use it would be fine, they have been making high end scopes and rings of 6061 for years. Maybe this sight should have a section for consumers to share info with out having to deal with all the B.S. elitism. Not every one has an unlimited budget.
    The problem is that it is a RIP OFF of someone else's work, concept, and even their logo. I don't care if it's made out of angel turds, that's not the point, they are literally taking money out of the pockets of those that actually worked to bring them to market at a level of quality that they are willing to put their name on.

    It's theft, it's illegal, it's sending money to support those that steal our intellectual property, and it's wrong.

    Guess we're just elitist like that.

    Exactly right. Its one thing if someone else decided to make a cheaper version, but to promote a knockoff item that is BS. Its stealing from an american made product and sending dollars overseas, I prefer to keep my dollars local, and to people that deserve them. Not some rip-off of someone elses hard work.

    Do you have any reason to believe that's true, or is it just a theory of yours.

    probably
    adverb likely, perhaps, maybe, possibly, presumably, most likely, doubtless, in all probability, in all likelihood, perchance (archaic), as likely as not.

    This seems to be the business plan for most company's in our global economy. If Dueck Defence isn't licensing this to them then its a bad move and lost revenue on their part.

    I'm also curious if anyone has tried the XS STI sights? I have a gift certificate for a set of XS sights. Would like to get a set of these and try for 3 gun.

    I ordered a set a couple weeks ago. The front sight was full of rust all down into the threads of the sight post. The rear sight leaf had quite a bit of play in it and wouldn't sit flat. I must have gotten a returned item or something. They made it right but I thought it was pretty piss poor. It's a nice setup but a bit awkward with some optics. I do like that you can get a longer sight radius than an M4 or A2 setup.
