4/4/2006 9:43:44 AM The guys gave some great choices as always, but what kind of M14 Scope Mounts replacement barrel you are looking for is a question that needs to be answered?
Trijicon or anyone chime in with suggestions as I’m starting to freak because of all the money and time spent on this. Thanks ETA: I went back to the range to take some shots and it’s worse than I expected. POI is about 4 feet higher than the red dots highest elevation setting and only at 25 yards. The Trijicon ACOG is awesome though. suprshootr 8/14/2008 9:16:10 PM Anyone ever have experience like this? mfingar [Industry Partner] 8/14/2008 10:15:46 PM So, am I reading this right?…you mounted an Trijicon ACOG on your weapon in addition to your red dot, to verify zero without shooting? beantamug 8/14/2008 11:41:50 PM

Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile Mccray6/17/2011 2:08:29 AM I have run the gambit fromEotech516 to Burris XTR 1-4X ,then to an aimpoint CompM2, then back to an Eotech, Then a TA31H 4X ACOG. Just recently I sold the Trijicon ACOG and purchased anEotechEXPS.The” Doughnut Of Death” reticle and overall FOV Always pulls me back. For me it has always been the fastest reticle to aquire and center on a target from 0-200 +yards pretty easily and range estimating with the ghost ring is quick and easy to an extent. I like the super brightness, the brightest red dot of the 3, settings and that they are better , stronger ,lighter and more compact now.IMO The Trijicon ACOG was impractical for Close range situations and I decided no to go with the added weight of a secondary 1x micro. I also find it easy to lose sight of a red dot through a tube type sight for critical seconds durring snap shots, whereas theEotechseems to lock your eyes into the target I have never tried a Trijicon Reflex or Mepro. I would be interested to see how well they workSo… I’m building an AR for duty, home defense, predator hunting, and plinking. I know it’s varied uses but it will be the only AR I personally own and until I build more this going to have to do it all. Anyway, I’m park ranger so most of action will be outdoors and I’m looking for a good scope to go on it. I’ve settled on either the Trijicon Trijicon AccuPoint 1x-4x or the Burris XTR 1x-4x, they’re both similar in price and features I was just wondering if anyone had any faults with either or knew of any reason why one is so much better than the other. I was leaning toward the Burris as I have their scopes on two of my bolt rifles and love them, though I do find it nice the Trijicon takes no batterys.

1/22/2006 7:42:10 PM PSG-1 is a finer weapon than a KAC SR-25. Just because the US does not issue them does not mean it is a better weapon. Remember we choice the best weapon at the lowest price and the PSG-1 was around $10,000.00 NIB stateside before 1994. And a AR style rifle is not the most reliable weapon in adverse conditions unlike a Delayed Roller Action. G3s are still standard issue for some NATO members, Iran, Pakastan, and several other countries. MP5s are still produced by HK Defense along with the PSG-1 and the MSG90, which happens to be issued to certain Marine Corp squads since it is much cheaper than the PSG-1. MadBodhi

I know people are crazy about those Aimpoint Micro’s. Other than “its the newest thing”…. what are the positives over a M2/M3 style body? I understand there is a weight savings, which isnt really important to me as the difference is miniscule. Do they offer any advantages on target acquisition, or do they reduce the amount of FOV blockage?

Gablackgus 6/22/2011 12:15:10 Guys- Check out www.BROWE -inc.com that will give you the low-down. The big deal on this optic is uses a micro-processor to actually measure the light at the target- not where your standing. This means your reticle will automatically adjust itself as you move from target to target adjusting for each lighting scenario. This eliminates the problems with other optics that use ambient light. Your reticle wont disappear in with a bright target, and wont overpower with a low light target. The housing is also titanium rather than aluminum, and it only comes with an a.r.m.s. lever mount. You can also program the optic to your personal preferences on how bright or dim you want your reticle. Hope that helps! 1811guy 6/22/2011 12:22:54 Originally Posted By Gablackgus: Guys-

I just got a Dieter grip for my A2 Carbine and the ARMS Scope Mount is uncomfortably high since I’m scrapping the Surefire tape switch. I’ll use the Dieter grip tape switch pocket for the OTAL, and activate the Surefire M962 with my thumb.
I wonder if Mr. LT would consider a special run of “left handed” battle lights for us left handed shooters out there that want to keep the bottom rail open for a bipod Scope Mount (like his).

I don’t know much about the SKS, but I’m betting someone here does. I’ll post up some pics of it next week.

SKS are good simple reliable rifles, hard to beat.
Order up some spam cans of ammo on stripper clips.
The stippers are resuable, and make loading fast.
Price, not bad these days, when SKS’s first started to get imported many years ago they where around $75 – $100 wholesell. Ammo was about that same price for 1100 on stippers and 1500 loose.
Should have put away a case of the russian ones. I like the looks of the older Russian ones, they are listed as C & R’s nowadays.
Its been reported, but I’m not sure if 100% fact, that China imported more SKS’s in a 3-5 year span then the entire production of Win. Model 94′s.

im not saying your wrong (seriously i’m not)
but i definitly re buying 2 crates of sks’s in 94 (pretty sure it was 94) for a grand total of about 45 dollars a rifle
couldn’t tell you what kind they were, i was all of about 16 and my “cousin” was 18, and at the time it seemed like an awesome idea.
as teenagers coming out of the cold war era we had a serious survivor mentality for some reason, so the crates and ammo we picked up with em went into a “cache” for a lack of a better word. where we “lived” at the time, that kind of stuff didn’t really raise any eyebrows. They guy we bought em from was a serious, old school, country, kitchen table ffl, who had crates and crates of stuff in his garage.
which reminds me, i should prolly go retrieve them from their current location before that property gets sold.
hadn’t even thought about those rifles in years.

In ’94, they were probably Chinese.
That’s about the time they were as common as most anything else in the local stores.
I should have bought more and I should have held on the the ones I bought. Have one Yugo now.

Oh yes, the Norinco SKS. I have both the rifle and carbine version. Great shooters and neither have ever failed to go bang. Back in the early 90′s you could get a rifle and 1,000 rounds for under $150 IIRC. Now I see them selling for $300+.

i dont even know what version they are,
all we knew was they were 40$ a rifle in crates of 10 with all kinds of cool shit, and the ammo was cheap as hell. Since we “put them down” we havent even touched the spot where they are, out of sight out of mind and all,
i think we pretty much verified that they were all real rifles, and then we set em up for loooooong term storage.
that old guy was cool as hell, he always had all kinds of crap, i think he went to alot of auctions at the ng base nearby.
we ended up with all kinds of cool stuff everytime we swung by
i’ll be the first to admit that my childhood was kind of different than most other folks, had alot of slightly unhinged vets as role models, who thought that kids should know everything they had to teach about what they learned in the service.
and the local neighbors (ie on the bounds of our acerage) were pretty much all serious survivalists, learned alooooot
and alot of what i learned has paid huge dividends in my military carrer
Hell hath no fury like that of a Battery of Paladins firing for effect.

A friend of mine got his last week. It seemed well made. I have not shot the conversion yet, but it shouldered well and felt very solid.

I saw a guy with one on his SKS Rifle Stocks at Knob Creek.

Corp.” or “Guangdon Lingnan Import Company”. The letters “CGA” may be stamped on the trunnion ahead of the serial number on early-import GLNIC AK47S rifles, and it appears that CGA was the exporter for pre-1989 GLNIC-imported AK47S and SKS Rifle Stocks rifles (later rifles were exported by Norinco).

Don’t need this and will likely forward it to my cousin who is a collector, but nicest one I’ve seen in a long time. The CGA thing just threw me off.

I learned my electronic ears were still under warranty. Pro Ears provided me with the shipping information and an RMA number. As the conversation with your staff continued, they discovered that we have several pair of hearing protection protection that were no longer working properly. Ultimately, I was told to ship all four pair of Pro Ears back to them for diagnosis. I was told they would check them out and would contact me to let me know if they could be repaired and how much the repairs would be. Last week I received a package with four pair of Pro Ears. Two of which had been repaired. The other two pair of electronic ears had been replaced.

5/27/2011 10:36:04 T Nothing wrong with them currently. Some had issues a few years ago, & the problems vary with the models, some not made any longer. See the threads on that, there’s an entire post dedicated to EOTech problems. 2nd, why would you like to take a EOTech apart? For what purpose? What do you know that EOTech doesn’t on fixing it if it’s broken? Ebay would be a good place but even so your going to be paying $ for a busted sight. EOTech are not basic redot’s like the AP is. There’s more complex electronics involved. The higher the tech the easier it is to break.
I know people are crazy about those Aimpoint Micro’s. Other than “its the newest thing”…. what are the positives over a M2/M3 style body? I understand there is a weight savings, which isnt really important to me as the difference is miniscule. Do they offer any advantages on target acquisition, or do they reduce the amount of FOV blockage?

I haven’t seen the stock on an SKS Rifle Stocks personally except in pictures. Before cleaning. The first patch I ran through, and the last one. Some krud Kutter for the stock. A little TLC stuff for the commie lady! And when I was done with her. Not much difference, but much cleaner! Don’t worry . . . → Read More:
