    People rave about their warranty as a big selling point. It great and all but it's the same as most others.

    Years ago I compared their top tear 1-4 & 1-6 to the comparable Leupolds.
    Leupold, IMO, had much better glass, edge to edge clarity, and much lighter weight. Probably couldn't drive nails with a Leupold though.

    that blows - they will make it right though.

    i have a viper in 3x9, while i have not yet fielded it, i am extremely impressed with the clarity and BDC

    this reminds me, i am going to need to take a day off and dial that 3x9 in on my 9" 300blk.

    Vortex is Hyundai of the optics world. Their warranty might be better, but you're better off just buying the Toyota.

    And like Hyundai, you're nearly spending Toyota level money. Just buy the NightForce etc.

    Relax bra! He was expressing his opinion on a superior optic.
    I'm sure we could see a target at a mile with a UTG :)

    For sure. I like talking shit and ruffling feathers. But it's usually always just innocent banter.

    I like that upper. Looking at building a DI, which upper is that? Any suggestions on ambi lowers, really digging Radian but was wondering if anyone else had a similar setup.

    Hoping someone here can answer this question. I want to pick up my AZ CCW, do I need to take a AZ class, or can I use my out of state CCW for demonstration of competency?

    New suppressor shoots good. Tad heavier in the longer config that the SiCo Osprey.
    Tried it in the short config and it was considerably louder, went back to the long config.

    Dialed in the Grendels.

    dude - do you have a membership at the supressor forum or something?

    wondering of all the new ones on the market, which is "best" for sound reduction and weight.

    No membership just a sickness.

    Hard to say what’s best but for weight prob the products by Q. Although he’s a dick.

    The SiCo Omega is still a decent can.

    Lots of choices though.
