Alright, here is the update, surprisingly he gave me a full refund this morning. I would take your advice and try to buy optics from USA.

Do I need to pay taxes for buying optics from USA? If the answer is yes, then how am I supposed to pay it?

I would just buy from U.K. retailers, if you want solid no quibble lifetime warranty buy Vortex from any approved stockist , if you want Eotech go through UKtactical , if you want Aimpoint go through Edgarbrothers . Holosun , Surefire - TacticalKit .

Thank you for telling me what and where I should buy optics, I still kind of envy Yankees for having more optics choices than us.

Never mind the optics, look how many types of bacon they've got to choose from, lucky bastards ??

I wouldnt worry too much about the optics, if you're purely an airsoft shooter then your average AliExpress kit is more than up to the job?

 
Hi All

I wanted to clear a couple of things up. As this post has been around and obviously is making people nervous about me and my company. I understand completely as there is a lot of scammers out there. So let me be an open book and explain 3 years after this post

  1. My first company Quantum Tactical UK which was Rifle Optics UK, I had to change the name because I was struggling to get a Bank account due to the name having Rifle believe it or not.
  2. This business failing was an extremely hard pill to swallow for me but had no choice. I lost may supplier for over 6 months plus, 2 months before covid lockdowns. I thought this would be permanent. So I had no supplier with debt to service with no products to sell. The banks won’t wait for there money. There was no lending options at the time as they were not giving out the FREE COVID money when this happened. You will get in serious trouble if you continue to run a limited company knowing it is in trouble. So I took the very hard decision after speaking to my accountant to liquidate. This wasn’t cheap and I had to find the money which was everything I had saved. Quantum Tactical is now dissolved which proves no issues or wrong doing occurred it was just bad luck. There is a lot more happening now as people can’t pay back the bounce back loans… anyway
  3. Bigshow was a friend who thought he was doing me a favour. And clearly didn’t he was working with me on Ignite Tactical. Let’s say no more
  4. Ignite tactical was another name for the company which I decided I was sticking with Xtreme Tactical and I closed down ignite Tactical website. It is a simple as that. No hidden agendas or schemes.



I am not a criminal or schema nobody lost from the liquidation, supplier was paid in full I had no staff apart from myself. Lloyds bank and Paypal lost as I had loans with them. That is it.

I lost my savings my business and had no salary for a year as I tried to build Xtreme Tactical. No COVID money either as I was a Directer. February 2025 it will be 5 years in business with no major issues at all. Please ask the over 3000 customers I have had. My reviews don’t reflect this as it’s extremely hard to get reviews.

It is a battle today to tried and build a business so I wanted to put my own comments on here. Please send me a message if you want to discuss anything.

Please read website reviews

Any question please message me on any of the socials. Thanks and happy shooting.

Yet nothing about whether the SIG sights are genuine or knock offs/qc rejects. To be honest all this sob story has done is remind me not to buy anything from whatever name this guy is trading under now

People wanted me to explain all of the questions so I did not a sob story. The SIG sights I sell are 100% Authentic. I have sold loads and yet no complaints they are fakes or clones. look at the reviews its speaks for them selves proven this author of this post wrong almost 3 years on not 1 review saying I have sold a Fake or a clone! Thanks for your comment. 

If you have never been a customer of mine how can you still say I'm selling fakes.

The author of this post put up I am selling fakes and clones which is complete lies. I did nothing to him apart from him to start attacking me on eBay and reporting things to everyone. I see he is no longer a member here. 

I don't appreciate people on this post also attacking me and nobody has any proof, ever been a customer or know me personally. But I suppose it's easy nowadays just to type whatever you want about somebody.

I have read all the comments and I don't know any of you but the assumptions made and the attacks are out of order.

Hey guys, came across this thread when I asked an airsoft WhatsApp group I was in what they thought about Xtreme Tactical as I was about to place a pre-order and heard some worrying comments then was eventually directed to this thread.

I'm here to speak in defence of Xtreme Tactical with no affiliation to them, but simply a customer of theirs since they were Rifle Optics UK on eBay and more recently Xtreme Tactical in their own store. 

2016 July: Elcan Spectre FDE for 7.62 from Rifle Optics UK on eBay.

2016 November: Eotech branded handheld thermal sight X320 from Rifle Optics UK on eBay.

2024 June: Holosun 509T in FDE from Xtreme Tactical from their site

2024 July: SIG Romeo X Pro FDE (Released a month ago, which the owner listed on their site within a few days at my request, received just under 2 weeks later)

I have had nothing but good experience, these optics are all difficult to source even with other sites which I buy from often, such as TacticalKit or Uttings. Prices have been within market range and they are also VAT registered for those this is relevant to. 

I can't speak for the way the owner behaved or how it "got personal" given none of the exchange were made public by either party, if you are a legitimate shop that deals in genuine optics and accessories, which in my experience Rifle Optics / Xtreme Tactical proved to be, being called out by someone who isn't a customer of yours that you are a fraud is understandably frustrating to say the least, especially when the accusation seems mostly from observing screenshots and markings, which any collector of real optics can tell you, markings can change even for the same model between batches, and just because something is real and costs a lot, does not make them immune to bad QC (I've had to exchange the Trijicon SRO with Beechwood due to visible glue residue in the diode lens reflecting through the sight picture, every one of my Eotech has delaminated and I own Surefire(s) with at least three different type of markings). I can however speak to my experience as a customer, every one of these purchases have been dealt with swiftly, shipped within the stated time windows, there were no troubles with customs as they were shipped from the UK, and the products were as advertised (i.e. genuine). 

I'm going out of my way to do this because it felt like the dogpile was unfair, as an optics and accessories collector in the UK and a happy customer, the service Xtreme Tactical offers is rare, hate to see the attacks against them go unchallenged.

Another happy customer to vouch for @Xtreme Tactical.

Again, I have no affiliation with the company whatsoever.

Put simply, I've had no problems with this company, every time I have ordered from them, service has been on point.

The products I bought were genuine and items arrived on time as advertised.

I don't know or understand the beef that occured earlier on in this thread, I'm simply here to say the Xtreme Tactical is a reliable seller.

I've attached some orders that I could find, (eBay records only goes back to 2017 for me).

The reason why there are no further orders after 2019 is because I left the UK.

For full transparancy, @blobface and I are on the same WhatsApp group and I also came here to speak up after he DM me.

Let's get real, there are much greater opportunities to benefit from scams than "pretending" to be a RS optics/accessories seller.
RS gear is such a niche market in the UK, we need to really support the good and reliable sellers like @Xtreme Tactical.
