    The things required to pull bitches
    I was looking at ear pro reviews a while back and I found a decent reviews on msa sordins. Well it was an airsoft kid doing the review... Didn't know ear pros are that important to them. I ended up buying peltors 6s

    A customer of mine is rocking a legit trijicon srs on his hk416 airsoft clone. F that. I'd get the primary arms rds if I airsofted

    On my rifle it's the same. No back up iron sights acog only
    My buddy on his last deployment said most of the time if the acog failed. The rifle is already gone. He didn't run any buis on his rifle either.

    Just like DD aimpoint, the rifle stopped before the aimpoint did.

    For airforce use, we issue aimpoint comp m4's with the MATECH buis.
    The only busted aimpoint ive ever seen was from someone shutting it in the door to an MRAP. Im not sure on the legitimacy ofthe story but thats what he told us.

    well, with everything being said and done about RDS's, i will continue to use my sightmark until:

    1. it dies of its own free will
    2. i kill it in the face
    3. i get a spare $450 and a hair up my ass for an aimpoint 517
    (i like the 517 becuase of the AA battery usage)

    soooooo, yeah

    The AA's don't last as long as the lithium batteries, alkaline shits out way faster. The lithium battery a PRO comes with will outlast countless dollars of AA batteries. I've left mine ON since I first used it, that's just short of a year. And it says to replace the battery every 3 or so years, however my friend has had his T-1 since it was released, hasn't shut it off and hasn't changed the battery in almost 3 years and it's still on.

    apparently people like us are all going to die when the real situation arises :eek:

    I paid less for my the shocks on my truck that gets abuse to hell than most people spend on their mall crawlers haha. Same analogy applies here to an extent.

    My rifles only get shot in the desert and flop around in the back of my truck when I do 60+ through the whoops to get to the place where I shoot. So far my Vortex and my Primary Arms are still working fine :notsure:

    You would do fine in walking dead. Just need an operating rod and a flat top A3 upper with no rear sights and you can take down walkers from 100 yards away.

    I'd do OK, it'll shoot and it has a fixed front sight but it won't be much of a tack driver without a rear sight :laugh:

    Haha listen people can use what they want. I'm not saying you have to buy the big names, but I don't trust a cheaper optic because I have already had one fail during a hard use training course.

    After that, better to do it right the first time because my first $125 was a waste.
