What is a DOPE Score?

The DOPE Score is our proprietary rating from 0–100 that aggregates real-world feedback across multiple sources — YouTube reviews, gun blogs, merchant ratings, and community forums. It's not a single reviewer's opinion — it's the consensus.

Sentiment — positive vs. negative language across all reviews

Authority — weighted by reviewer expertise and audience size

Recency — newer reviews count more than older ones

Bias Check — sponsored content is penalized in scoring
