3/8" flex head ratchet recommendations?

THis is a helluva buy IMHO, I just spent $40 more than that on a new HAZET;

i'll vote for duralast and would take one over a craftsman any day of the week.

I find the armstrong maxx ratchets to be very attractive and people usually have only good things to say about them... worth taking a look at I would think.

Matco 88tooth flex head with offset handle is my favorite 3/8" ratchet.
I do also like the 3/8" drive in a 1/4" flex head body of snappy for those hard to reach places, just wish matco made the same tool.

After using the matco and snap on ratchets I ended up giving all my crapsmen ratchets away and now have matco and snap on ratchets in my home and my work tool box.

I stopped by Sears and checked out the Gearwrench roto ratchets, I didn't like the cushion grip handle. Like I am sure many of you are, I am fairly particular about what tools I buy. I think I am 99% sold on the Armstrong, I'm curious however how well the locking mechanism works and if anyone has pics of it up close.

Thanks!
