Has anyone here used these? Are they a good buy for the money?

Read the reviews...

I've tried assorted UTG mounts/rings in the past and the result was always the same... soft metal... stripped-out screw holes.  If it's a money-thing, I'd go with Magpul BUIS (inexpensive, but not "cheap").  I use a DPMS rear BUIS on my AP-4 to co-index with my red-dot.

I would skip this and purchase another buis.  I bought an UTG forward grip for my ar and it broke on the first trip to the range, didn't even make it past a mag full.  I do think the UTG rubber rail covers are a good buy though.
 I reccommend one of the Yankee Hill Machine or GG&G buis.
