I think it comes down to whether or not you want the swivel point.
I have the gear head works plate and I am happy with it. |

Does the GearHead one fit the opening properly? Have seen a few photos that make it look like the outer plate is shaped differently then the opening it's going in.

I have the Gearhead and it works great, though I dont shoot suppressed. I put it on with the sling point to the rear and like how it rests better than when using the factory rear mount.

I have to say that even after installation of my Flex by Gearheadworks, I still get Tavor face and I am not shoioting suppressed. Nasty ejection port gas right on my face. Oh well. At least its a swivel mount.

I use the MI one suppressed. No gas leaks with it in place.

Do you have any issues transitioning between sides with the sling that far forward?

Our plate seals with a full size back and front plate to really block the gas.
thanks TROY MI |

No issues with the factory cover.
If you want to seal it up better get a tube of RTV silicone and a dab will do ya.

Flex for me. The extra swivel works great. No gas hits me anymore so I don't see a need for 2 plates. Mine fits perfectly too. I don't see an issue with the one in the picture.
