Product quality is solid but the website could use some work. Hard to find what I was looking for at first. The Kimber KDS9c Optic Plate for Trijicon RMR Footprint itself? No complaints.

Product is fine but shipping took 6 days instead of the 3 they estimated. Not a huge deal but worth mentioning.

Been in the market for a while and finally decided to buy from F1firearms. I was comparing this against similar products from eBay and decided to take the chance. Glad I did. Arrived in 3 days, well-packaged, and the quality speaks for itself. Installed it on my Glock 17 and ran 497 rounds through it without a single hiccup. This is the real deal.

Was worried about fit but it dropped right in on my Glock 26. Works perfectly after a few hundred rounds. Very pleased.
