I love Midwest Industries products, but I don't see anything here that I can't find for under a $100 elsewhere. I have a mounts from other vendors that were cheaper, and I have not had any issues with them. What am I not seeing with this product?

They're awesome. Constantly taking risks to bring out new products. I love their combat series of handguards.

We strive to offer the best possible price, but we will not do that by sacrificing quality. From the material we start with to the final product we use the best we can and always will. We know that with many of our products people put lives on the line.

Get what you pay for.

Capitalism matters. WHERE you send your money is what matters most.

Many companies doing this and its just wrong on so many levels.

I have to agree on all counts.  Not only that, but non qd makes no sense in today's day and age (at least to me)

I love most of what you guys do, but like some other posters here, I'm also not sure what to think.

My first thought was that these must be intended to be lighter weight... nope, like 0.3oz lighter than your QDs and as heavy as the competition. So maybe a budget option? I mean, I guess... except guys who can't afford to pay a premium for QD capability probably aren't going to pony up for something with the same functional capabilities as the (much) cheaper foreign made stuff just because its made in the USA. $130 isn't exactly "budget" territory.

Heck, I don't even really use the QD capabilities of my mounts, I just appreciate not having to worry about nuts coming loose over time because a lever can't unscrew with recoil.

I dunno... more options are more better I guess. While I'm sure theres some segment of the market that this will be perfect for, it's clear that I'm not part of it. lol.

I’ll buy one in 20 MOA. Better than the Warne I hope (which I had to lap to stop a scope from slipping) and cheaper than a Giessele, and even though I own two, I think they are way overpriced.

slowdown cupcake, you post here and need to expect some feedback you may not like.  It's not just about cost but utility and alternatives.  I could list a ton of other options that will work ever bit as good for a little less and a little more however, those will be proven and have many will have qd functionality which is something the mkt wants.

Wish you luck here but think you are flat nuts to think people will pay 100 for a heavy non-qd mount with quality alternatives in abundance at proven/better pricing.

People pay three times that for a Geiselle non QD mount? i'm missing your point. While i too like QD I'm sure these will sell.

Cool. I’m actually in the market for one. This fits my bill because I trust your products.
Thanks.

Looks good, and I expect these will sell well particularly if no lapping is needed.

Though I am curious, why the choice of 6061 vs 7075?  Simply a case of 7075 being overkill?
