T-Rex arms sidecar. Won't actually make you Instagram famous, or a faster shot, oddly enough. In the end it's a cheaply made holster, one size fits all, that doesn't conceal well, ride well, or last.

I like mine. I find it comfortable, concealable, and to fit the gun/light/mag combo well. I have not had it long enough to assess durability.
What do you compare it to within your experience?
XS big (or standard) dot sights for pistol.
They are expensive, no faster than notch and post sights and the Huge front sight damn near covers an entire chest of an adult at 25 yards.
I had them for a few months and never noticed any difference in speed or ease of
acquiring a sight picture. The general design principal of them is as an "express" style sight used on old big game rifles. The advantage of that design being they are excellent at close range. A few instructors such as Aaron Cowan do a demo in class where they show the distance that can be accurately shot with no sights at all (not condoning unsighted fire). So why would I have a set of sights that Excell in close range work when theoretically speaking I wouldn't need sights in that range (again I always use sights). It just makes no sense to me why a sight system would be designed for a range where any pistol sights would be fine but suck at further distance.
I have not tried then but apparently the big dot is great for shotgun's.
Man, I agree with you. They work for some people; I'm not one of them.
With that being said, I was in an MDFI "You Suck It's Not The Gun" class a couple months back and there was a guy on the line next to me running a p320 with big dots. He managed to fill up a nickel-sized hole with them, and was ringing some shots out past 50 yards on 10" steel with them. Guess it's different strokes for different folks. I'm just not one of those folks.
disagree here a bit. my department does not allow WML. so its a good tool that i can slide on if i feel im going need itThe Safariland RLS light. Good initiative, but it falls apart in execution. If you want hand-held, get a hand-held. If you want a WML, get a WML. There are too many unnecessary movements in manipulating your pistol to get the light on, or to take it back off, before you reholster.
The various unicorn jizz lubricants are an overpriced marketing gimmick. Sure they work just fine, so does motor oil from the gas station at a fraction of the price.

You may want to reconsider using engine oil due to the various additives involved. I do not want to inhale toxic chemicals every trigger press. Additionally, engine oil is designed for a mostly sealed system, free of contaminants, not for open air guns that may have sand/lint/fouling/etc. I'll stick with my expensive "unicorn jizz" that is less likely to cause cancer than automotive oils.

1- Isn’t fireclean just repackaged, grossly overpriced vegetable oil?

Incidentally that is the exact type of BS marketing gimmicks to rip people off I was talking about.
2- I confess not to be an expert on this but the amount of chemicals that come from fumes of gun lube and are inhaled seems pretty small. In the grand scheme of things I’m not worried about it.
No its not. This is why TFB is on the same level as TTAG and the National Enquirer.
"It is quite apparent that the results for FIREClean and Crisco are very similar."
If we use the same logic they used with the infrared spectroscopy, chimps and humans are the same because genetically they are similar.
I don't know if I'd put them in the snake oil category, but they're no better than a Pmag or GI mag in good condition. I probably have ten of them that were purchased for less than the newest Pmags and I use them primarily for training.I, too, would like to know more on why. I will admit that I'd like to see justification (material explanation) on why they are so much more expensive than other brands (and, I would call BS on the metal reinforcement parts angle), but I have never had a problem with mine.
