I purchased it via Amazon-- Tough Tactical Tools Finger Stop

Guessing for $15, it's 100% Chinesium.

I wasn't going to comment but now that you're posting comparison pictures, the company name, and pricing, I want it to be absolutely clear that tough tactical tools and crushunt (both selling the same thing on Amazon) are Chinese copies of our Finger Stop. At Arisaka we make all of our parts in the USA on our own machining centers, employing Americans.

If you want to save $10 by buying that crap, it's your money, and I am in no position to tell you how to spend it. It's very disappointing that you gave money to someone who is blatantly ripping off our Finger Stop, which is even being copied by some domestic companies like IWC.

For other blatant rip offs check out Fortis Shift Grips and then these:

Thanks for giving me an excuse to buy one, been meaning to for a while.
EDIT (Shipping label in 7 minutes? That's some fast work!)

Thank you for your business! Our mail pickup arrived about 10 mins after that, so it went out in today's mail.

Actually, Will, I didn't intend to go beyond my original post until curious minds here began asking questions. I don't like seeing you suffer such disappointment. Admin, tear down those posts!

Whoa. I just looked at the IWC and uh, yeah. Doesn't get much more blatant than that. Not really my business but why aren't you going after them? Or the others?

**ChattanoogaPhil** · 31 December 2018, 12:07

Before you brought it up, Will, I didn't know that IWC made a fingerstop with an integrated Quad-Point Grip profile. Those look real nice. Any chance you're be making some like IWC?

Waiting on our patents to be approved.

Not sure if you're trolling me at this point, but I have no idea what that is, so let's go with no.

**Aragorn** · 31 December 2018, 12:24

Oof. This is becoming painful to read.

Oh man, you're going to send Slippers on a spinner here.

Will any chance you'll be making a copy of something that was made by someone who copied your design?
