Sidearms & Scatterguns Red dot or not on your "life or death" pistol?

I have literally shot many 10's of thousands of rounds through dot equipped handguns during my USPSA career in Open Division, and in Limited Optics Division. I am also a Limited Division (iron sight) Grandmaster. At 70 years old my vision is really jacked up, astigmatism, prisms in my glasses to correct double vision, and tri-focal glasses to boot. I had dots on my carry guns, but took them all off about a year ago. Iron sights with a target focus is all I need.

Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

true that an individual can't usually manage direct input into a rep's actions. staff ignores you or blows it off as i have experienced myself. so,lobbying groups arise as a tool. they eventually become their own reason to exist.
they themselves become highly corrupt and come to exist for their own enrichment. the NRA is a perfect example of this process. my father was a life member since the late 40s,me an endowment for decades. we all know how much they syphoned off thru plain theft,many 6 figure salaries. this is a common route with any lg lobbying group. they steal the $s instead of using it to pressure congress on our behalf. the big ones just buy congress blobs like Warren and Johnson. the lobby blob just becomes an integral part of the DC sewer and system and stays all joined in the corruption game.
Guess who has the biggest lobbying group? One for each Senator and Congress person?

Guess which group has the largest per capita representation in Congress?

Guess how is the largest doner to BLM and Antifa?

Beginning to see a pattern.

Seekins SP10 barrel question

I am actually waiting to hear back from DD on their gas block attachment for this model. If they have changed and went the corner cutting route also, then they are a no go I doubt it cause all my DD in 556 are pinned and set screw. I also waiting on the barrel estimate. However The Scar is at 5000. Which is roughly 70% greater barrel life. Not to mention the immense superior differences of the Scar ability to handle heat. As for the DD the barrel is also chf and chrome lined so the functional benefits are there by design. The Geissele is likely able to prrform possibly beyond both. Seekins is not a mil-spec durable weapon, that's been established. Shooting it in slow bench situations may get you to 3000 but no way would you get the durability of a Scar, Geissele and even the DD. And accuracy also has alot to do with shooters skill so variables all factor. But without a doubt Seekins is way overhyped.
Those barrels may be chrome lines or nitrided or even some type of alloy. Considering you can pick up an SP10 between $2200-2500 and have a factory gun, with great customer support, that shoots 1/2-3/4 MOA as a large frame, I don't know what your issue is. You are paying almost double that for a Geissele and people have said that there is 0.5mil of shift when doing positional shooting.

Have fun using a SCAR and shooting with a clip on before you cook it. And FN won't warranty their guns if anyone uses a suppressor.

If you want a battle rifle, Seekins isn't what you are looking for anyways. Maybe pick one up and run it for 3000 rounds before jumping in to criticize it.

Austin Tx

Cedar Park is a very nice area and home to one of the best NFA shops I have ever dealt with, Capitol Armory. Still its commuting distance to CBD Austin so real estate is pricey. Anothe thing to add no one has is you need to consider the cost of our utilities, gas, electric, water etc... Some of the highest in the nation.
$500+ electric bills in the Summer

Travis County's judicial branch, including a potential jury pool, are full of communist. Ask Sgt. Daniel Perry.

Find another job. Austin is a shit stain on the great state of Texas. So is Dallas, San Antonio, Houston, El Paso, and Beaumont.
