    I could probably hit it once, if you gave me enough chances...statistically speaking. :infantry:

    I'm probably better utilized as a suppressive fire kinda guy...like a Stormtrooper. :D

    Yep. It wasnt a lot of shots actually, plus it was getting past shooting light so that didnt help. Not making excuses just a statement

    Yeah.
    Maybe I am being too hard on myself. I set up a target at 100 yds when sighting in a couple of 300BLK pistols with Bushnell red dots, and they have a 3 MOA dot. That was pretty much pointless, the dot covered the entire target. 50 yards was fine, though. Once I got them sighted in at 50, I had no trouble consistently hitting the steel plate they had at 100, probably a foot in diameter, but no confidence I could consistently hit it in the center.

    If the target is a couple of feet wide at 500 and the goal is to just hit it somewhere, a 2 MOA red dot should be enough.

    Regular AR front sight posts are pretty easy of use on torso size targets out to 300 yards. Past that you are having to "split" the front sight up and eye sight issues can make it difficult even if you don't notice it from day to day. The longer sight radius of the 20" upper also helps some people.

    Red dots for those with astigmatisms can be a big issue. It can just look like a a blurry starburst or a smear.

    M16 peep sights, M16 that the rifling was shot out, looked almost like a shotgun bore. '71, good times!

    i like it a lot, though to be fair I've never had another trigger besides milspec, that being said its light years better in my opinion.

    ive had a couple of the geisselle triggers and they’re overpriced compared to mbt.
    99% of shooters (including myself) cannot tell the difference.

    Hope you bought the H3 buffers to go with them! Nice score, I should buy one before big brother decides they don’t like them.

    God I hope you didn't pay the outrageous price some people were asking on the secondary market. If so, i'm looking at $1400 worth of trigger there.

    I am very interested in this product, however I fully expect this will be a future ATF interest item, with credit care processing company's getting in line to give up one's name, address and purchase date. This is one of those things I would happily pay cash for, just to stay off of the radar.
