All the guns(except my CC gun) I use are suppressed. So I don't have a need for FA/QD mounts. I'm curious if people really use that feature. Do you?
FA/QD mounts-Do you really use them?

I swap my M4-2000 between three different uppers all the time. But, I've got a Harvester pending for a precision rifle also. My next can will be a Rugged 762. And I'll run it on multiple rifles as well. To me, the majority of buyers pretty much expect and demand a solid QD system that locks up tight, doesn't freeze onto the mount and offers repeatable or minimal POI shift. I just wish that the Rugged or Deadair cans had come along 2 years sooner.
I prefer a FA/QD for the reasons @DarthVader listed. It makes it convenient to run on multiple hosts and not have to worry about the barrel threads of a host that doesn't have the can currently on it.
Plua it allows me to use a 7.62 can on a 5.56 host with out swapping any sort of adapter.
When at the range I swap between my 308, mosin, and AR's.
Honestly a direct thread would be no slower, BUT I don't worry about the can loosening during fire.

Even with QD I try and thread all my rifles 5/8x24, hell threading can sometimes be cheaper than mounts!
That's true. I don't have any gunsmiths close to me that I'm confident in though.
