Off Season Lets Talk Guns
Been a while since we had a guns n' ammo discussion.
Some of you are AR shooters Im sure. Im looking at a Colt 6920. Will be my first AR. Picked up a Glock this fall and really enjoy shooting it. Any feedback on that weapon? Anyone else been in a buy/sell/trade mood with hardware? Part 2: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=293623 Last edited by Bearcat; 07-28-2015 at 06:06 PM.. |

Well, I did go ahead and modify my AK and I (sort of) took my own advice. Got the Midwest Industries quad rail - even though I only really need a rail on top, the other cheaper options just didn't impress me. I did go with an inexpensive UTAC holographic red dot sight instead of the Burris, which saved me about $150. It got good reviews, and I don't figure to shoot the AK all that much anyway, so what the hell.
Heading to the range on Sunday to get it dialed in. |

Scope shopping is awesome yet sucks at the same time.
At first, Nightforce was the obvious choice. They have a 42x Benchrest model that I can get for a little over 1400. I came across SWFA, and they have an awesome scope for around the same price. Then, I started looking at Vortex. They have some nice scopes, and the basic Viper 20x can be had for $459. How much magnification does one need? Do I need FFP or second? I finally said **** it, I need to do a test. I used one of my Redfield Revenge 18x scopes to see if I can resolve a 1+ mile target. I could easily make out a 15" target. I regularly use the cheap Redfield to consistantly hit 1000 yard balloons with my AR-10. I am chasing my tail. **** me. If I can see it I can shoot it, I don't need a Mega scope to hit targets like a lot of wallet-warriors need. |
