Re: Clip On's

Hey guys, I put this here because I don't know where else it could go. I know the different brands of clip on's and they are all pretty close in price, but what do you think are the best ones and Why? Vortex, Harris, Woodcraft, Proteck.....

Thanks

Re: Clip On's

I have the vortex ones... They have a good angle to them and the bars are $14 a piece if you snap one...

Other than that, I don't know how I'd tell you its any better than the others...

Re: Clip On's

Most clip-ons wil NOT fit w/factory plastic as they are straight and the stock bars have a riser to clear the plastic---Race plastic is better
