AR-15 BS Thread

I'll have to shell out for the DD quad and have my guy cerakote it

 

Get the "fde" one as it's not really fde at all and see how it grows on ya.

 

My Aero upper and lower, Aero parts kits, Ballistic barrel, Brownell BCG, almost all ODG, .223, shoots well, don’t get it out often enough. I call it my GI Joe gun.

 

And that is exactly why I think I could get away with that dark ass brown on the green receivers! lol

 

Nice.

Were yer pants unzipped while taking the picture? Just checking if this is TW thing to do.

In all seriousness though, anyone have this Taticon LPVO? Im taking a chance on it for my 16inch. Nothing but good reviews and tutorial vid on you tube these guys seem to know what they are talking about so that's a good sign.

Im cheap so it'll do. I wouldn't know what good glass even looks like . As long as it sights in and doesn't break in the first year im good with it.

 

I'm a 100% of the time crotchless sweatpants kinda hombre.

 

This. If your firearm is worth spending big bucks on, the optics should be approaching the gun value.

 

That’s the risk.

Taking a very fast look, it has no useable reticle. Even if it did, at that price, there’s a high change that it wouldn’t be calibrated.

The recoil rating, and quality of the erector assembly on these super China scopes are unpredictable at best, I can’t imagine it’s ability to survive butter hands and making it on a 3-4 foot drop. #followit


That’s not even getting into glass quality and accuracy of the turrets, pupil diameter, tube strength for those that like to over torque their rings, coating durability etc.

Meanwhile primary arms use to have like $200 China scopes that would actually work.
Who knows, maybe is came from a similar factory.

 

Don’t buy cheap glass.

vortex imports are at least descent for the money and they just released a FFP 1-8x24 strike eagle.

That's a combo I'd like to see. Searched Google and couldn't find an mk18 with the brown rail and green receiver. Go for it! This is about as green as I get for my rigs.
Got a viper pst 1-6 in the mail to replace the 1-4 on this one.

 

You can get the vortex viper pst 1-4 for like $275 now. That's about the best bang for your buck you can get.

 

I just use mine for Range use so thats a little rich for my blood haha. If i was using it as HD or everyday id probably justify it.

 

Ive run the cheapest of cheap red dots and have been pretty happy with the performance at range. Never got out of spec. That being said the sig that i have now is a good bit nicer but i guess is still consider cheap? IDK lol. All i know is it cost 5 times the red dot i had haha.

 

Whats important to you about the optic ?Like are you using for HD or personal protection hunting etc?

 

Now I have to wait, the set sold out lol. I can buy the lower and piece everything else slowly.
