    I’m originally from Boaz but have since relocated to Huntsville. I’m around that area from time to time but not typically in my truck.

    Just bought it, but it's been lifted and who knows what else has been crappily done before I got it. It's going to be a project for sure... but it's my daily driver too.
    I work from home, but have to go into Redstone twice a week on "normal" weeks and most of the week when I support training classes. Not a fan of the drive at all... but it helps pay for parts (sorta).

    Like I said, just going by the web experts. I've seen them far down too. The 410 upper that I just got is the first set of iron sights I have had :D

    I definitely understand that. Used to have a pretty decent sized group of HSV guys. I can remember on occasion getting together for taco Tuesday’s during lunch. Ahh memories

    @Brian422 I see folks have gotten on your optic rather than asking a question :rofl:

    I wonder how many actually have experience or just repeating what they've read as fact.

    Man, post up one picture and start a storm. I too side with the “try and see” logic. Note to self, never ever post a gun picture.

    This is why I typically lurk versus actively post. My flame suit isn’t very robust.

    Guns folks are some of the worst. Their way is ALWAYS right. Especially when folks start asking about certain brands. I'm a Glock fan boy and will admit it, but I always tell folks to get a gun they like to shoot and feels comfortable. I have the belief if you don't like shooting it......you want be good at using it.

    Yea what doesn't make sense about this whole argument is my front sight never gets knocked off so why would the red dot lol. Anyways I've never been one to just believe what I'm told. I have to confirm for myself.

    Hyper critical is an understatement but I tend to agree with all those statements.

    @Brian422
    In my opinion, that’s how you learn. Just keep doing your thing and keep me posted when you try it out. Curious how it runs.
