Caution

This device is ok once you have fitted it to your need. It is a good product if you don’t expect it to last 500-600 rounds. You can start to notice red particles that can end up in your lower that can end up in the lower parts. It may be due to heat, hardening the device. You will be able to feel a negative effect. I had to remove, disassemble, and clean my lower. I used shims instead because of this.

Get a razorblade ready

First, understand that Browne!ls is great with which to do business; I use them a lot. But not all products they sell have that stellar reputation. I installed the wedge on a S&W M&P 15 TS, and maybe tolerances are tighter. But I ended up cutting away about 60% of it before I could get the pin to lock the upper. Instructions say "squeeze" the upper down to lock. More like use a vise, which I certainly wasn't going to do. So I went to whittling. Does it stop wobble? Yes. Is it worth the price? Maybe not, especially if you have to whittle it down to almost nothing. Got a loose fit on your AR? Might help. Will I buy another? Probably not. For many years I didn't use one, and never missed it. If the round base were MUCH thinner it would probably be a drop in. Maybe buy a couple of school erasers for 50 cents and make your own. I give it 3 stars.

DOES NOT WORK WITH RRA and S&W AR15

It was questionable when I ordered the wedge if it would work with my Rock River Arms Elite Comp. I thought maybe it would fit in my Smith and Wesson M&P 15 but that's not the case as well. Don't order this brand of Accuwedge if you own one of the two ARs I mentioned.
