I ordered the AR500 system to allow convenient practice. The 1/2” plate is withstanding the workout and my 2x4” wood stud is great for adjusting the plate up and down. I plan to use larger stakes to keep the plate from falling over since it is fairly top heavy. Lastly, I really like the spring behind the plate to provide flex.

This is my 3rd Acetech tracer unit. No problems or issues with the first two it’s just they’re so cool I’ve started giving them out as gifts. Fixing to get a 4th unit because a friend was over recently and had a blast with it. We don’t even play Airsoft, just shooting the tracers off the deck into the backyard makes it worth the rifle, green glow BBs and the tracer unit.
It’s durable because we’ve never broken one. The shutoff feature (pencil in the barrel) works great but it also has a sleep and shake to wake feature. Mine stays charged for thousands of shots and it really lights up the BBs. You have to take the end cap off to charge it. I wish it came with a replacement cap in case the original cap gets lost while charging. Would definitely recommend and I’ll definitely be getting some more.
Just remember the threads are counter so righty/loosey when taking off the orange flash suppressor on the end of the rifle and lefty/tighty when installing the tracer unit

I got this not expecting much considering the price. I was very excited to feel the quality of this thing. The reticle is very crisp and clear and I like the options available to switch between styles. Mounting is a breeze and I expect most people will be using it for a pistol. I would expect it to be a great option for a shotgun or rifle as well. Easy to use, adjust, and replace the battery without having to re zero. I expect this will last a while. I don’t plan on doing a drop test or anything but I’m sure it will stand up to normal we and tear, but I wouldn’t bet my life on it after a drop.
