optics you have on your AR

If you want attention, walk passed a DC security cam.

I have an Eotech, with a 3x magnifier. An Eotech that currently floats. Good sites. I have an Aimpoint PRO that works a bit better. Mostly because it stands a bit higher sightline wise. I'm going to add an Aimpoint T2. There will be a fifth choice pending. I like the red dot for the aquire target speed, and they don't cover the target point like iron sites. Aim small, miss small.

Not to get off topic or anything, but what range is that? Looks very nice.

That's the Associated Gun Clubs Range at Marriottsville. You'll see many photos of it on this forum, because many of us shoot there.

That's part of the 100 position 100 yard range. There's also a 200 yard range with pits, 50 yard pistol range, trap, and archery.

Open 364 days a year, never a wait to shoot.

Nuttin'. I believe in good ol' fashion irons.

If I want a scoped gun I'll buy a modern bolt action.

Ditto ...iron sights, no need for batteries, nothing to break, sum thin to worry about..."wait, hold on I have to replace my batteries"..don't like all that crap hanging off it...Yeah..yeah I know...
Take away optics, then have a go at iron sights.... ...YMMV.. just saying..

Bolt gun... that's what the TRG's w/ S&B, NF optics is for..... a few other bolt guns

I've had one for nearly two years. Sat on 22LR rifle for a little while before being replaced by a traditional optic. Maybe I should try it on an AR instead of a red dot. The site is very rugged and quick to acquire.

I've had a Meprolight M21 for the last year or so, I'm digging it. It's just a range toy really, but I think it works well with the triangle reticle, and there's no need to worry about batteries!

I have one a Tavor. I like it also.

Batteries suck. I don't want to rely on any sighting device that requires either them or good weather.

That is why I like 1x-4/6 scopes.

With batteries at 1x, work like red dot. Without batteries, they still work well.

Thank you. I've been meaning to check it out for years but keep going back to Hap Baker. Maybe I need to get off my butt and do it.

Why yes, yes you do.

This is the best time to join, because memberships run January - January.

I saw that awhile ago and thought it looked interesting, but the dorky billboards juist kill it. If I got one, I would put electrical tape on the sides.

You guys have me nervous now.

The guys I talked to about the EOTech also got theirs supplied for free (Sheriffs Dept & Navy) - we talked more about functionality than long term reliability.

I really liked the 65 MOA around the dot on the EOTech. The low(er) profile, large window and the 65 MOA circle around a 1 MOA dot were what sold me on it.

Until I can talk to them again, I called and cancelled my EOTech order.

I admit, it is very hard to find anyone who has anything bad to say about an Aimpoint PRO. They just seem so BIG on the rifle and more prone to being banged and damaged or knocking them out of zero.

I do appreciate your feedback - for the amount they charge for these, I need to get this right the first time.

Update - Decided to go with an Aimpoint PRO after all. I ordered it from Cabelas since they had them in stock and I really like their customer service in case I do have a problem.

I am ditching the RRA Tactical Carry Handle altogether - I just ordered a A.R.M.S. A2 Flip-Up, Low-Profile / Same-Plane rear sight to replace it with.

I am really hoping the spacer that comes with the Aimpoint PRO mount works out to be a Lower 1/3 Co-witness. I have read several reviews - some say they get a true 1/3 lower and others say they are getting something between a true and a 1/3 CW with the QRP2 mount.

Might want to wait a few months for the new Vortex Sparc AR to come out. Looks like it has potential to be a nice red dot.

Good Point.
