As far as Optics Planet being reputable, they are top notch. I've ordered several optics from them over the years (including high dollar spotting scope) and have never had an issue. Always good packaging, great prices, free shipping (sometimes with free 2-day upgrade), and good customer service. They are an authorized dealer of many brands as well.
I've got one new one, and one OG one.. both work, but if I could only keep one it'd definitely be the newer model.
The ATF is about to classify these as "machine guns" under the NFA. There is currently an open comment section on ATF.gov discussing a proposed change and accepting public comments.
Essentially Congress won't touch it with a ten foot pole, and instead are trying to pressure the ATF to administratively decide that they're machine guns. Cowards.
buy with caution. they could be illegal by March.
As far as Optics Planet is concerned, I have only ordered one thing from them, and it arrived well packaged and quickly. Soft case for a 12 gauge Mossberg 500.

Probably not though... because by the actual written definition of them they don't fit- so that'd be a significant over-reach- doubly so given what this administration has done with administrative rules on everything else.
NFA defines a machine gun as:
Any weapon which shoots, is designed to shoot, or can be readily restored to shoot, automatically more than one shot without manual reloading, by a single function of the trigger
A slidefire stock doesn't do that.
It still only fires once per function of the trigger. (you could maybe make a better case to classify binary triggers that way...maybe... but not slidefire stocks)
Not to mention they'd need to either grandfather existing ones (like opening the NFA registry to allow you to register them- which legally can't be done unless congress does something- see the Hughes Amendment) or they'd need to buy them all back to avoid it being an illegal taking (which they ALSO can't do without congress acting to authorize the money for that).

Nobody "needs" a Porsche either- but they're sure fun.
Nobody "needs" wine, but some of it tastes quite good.
Heck, nobody "needs" a steak- but it tastes a lot better than a soyburger.
The list of stuff nobody "needs" but people sure want, is awfully long.
Good thing we live someplace you're not only permitted to own things someone else decides you "need" huh?
