i havent gotten a text if you sent me one

 

Morning guys,

Been following this thread for a while.

Thoughts on this as a first AR?

think that would work

 

Personally, not a fan of Radical. If you can find an Aero Precision in stock, I think it's a better option. Aero makes some good stuff for reasonable prices. Also, as a first AR, you'll probably start modifying it. It's just natural . So why not build your own?

 

I second a ruger.

 

I'd go Ruger over anything else these days.. for an entry AR anyways.

 

Ordered some goodies for my new Sig's.

556 - MFI flip up front and rear sights, Hogue grip, Timber Creek extended mag release, Lancer mag cinch.

P320 - ETS clear mag, Springer Precision extended mag release, T5 Custom Kydex holster.

And a new 32" 2 gun rifle bag. Gonna consolidate a bunch of my shit and get everything packed and organized between the rifle bag and chest rig.

 

1st gen Haley Strategic D3CRX. They are discontinued and replaced by an updated model. got lucky and found it on a mannequin in my LGS.. and got a smoking deal on it. I wanted something for all my mags, bino's, gear, etc while walking the desert varmint hunting. I'm able to run my Osprey bladder for water as well. no more water bottle shoved in my back pocket and mags in the other BS. lol

 

I currently have a 5.11 backpack with molle all over it. It's nice and all but I'm looking for something that doesn't scream "wannabe operator". I'm way too skinny to be an operator . Would prefer more stealth, blend in with the crowd look. Any suggestions for a reasonably priced backpack?

Yes I guess I should define that. I'm cheap and I rarely use a backpack so like $50ish?

 

Thanks guys! I’ll keep looking and also researching a build.

 

For a daily carry backpack for work I use one that Maxpedition makes. Looks like a classic Jansport bag but quality built like Maxpedition does. My only complaint is that I need a sternum strap, easily fixed.

 

I went to my local surplus store for my backpack. It's a generic version of a 5.11, Condor, etc. Very well built. Lots of storage. Been using it daily as my edc bag for over a year now. Use it for my clothes/gear bag for camping too. Has a bladder pocket as well. Was ~50 bucks.

 

Sounds like a good idea! As long as it looks "normal".

 

Just a Coyote backpack. Expandable pockets. Molle. My lunch box fits in it. My p320. Meds. Etc

 

The only thing that ever bothered me about the vortex sparc was how they mounted the emitter diode. It always left a slight bump in the fov, where it was not perfectly circular.
