Re: Piggybacking an Aimpoint Micro on a Nightforce NSX Hakan - thank you for the great reply complete with awesome photos. Very helpful. Cool to see a post from my family's homeland. Our original family name was Hjelm. I visited several years ago and really liked it. Need some skorpors or...

Re: Piggybacking an Aimpoint Micro on a Nightforce NSX Thanks, 427Cobra. A perfect use case illustration.

Re: Piggybacking an Aimpoint Micro on a Nightforce NSX Jon A - thank you very much for posting up these photos! I plan to offset it also. My only remaining concern would be the difference between the two radii (objective and tube), then, between our two setups. My difference would...

I've got a Nightforce NSX 5.5-22 x 56 and want to piggyback an Aimpoint Micro T-1 using a TNVC SAR-3P accessory rail Seems Aimpoint makes some spacers to go between the rail and the device. Anybody know how to figure out whether I would need one and how much space? I can imagine needing...

I've got a couple biz trips there this month and wanted to use some free time, if I get any, to do a little shooting. Any recommendations?

I have been kicking around what .308 to buy for months and I think I am settling in toward the M1A Scout. My eyes are getting old, so focusing on a front sight can be tough for accurate shots beyond a few before my eyes are fatigued. While an EOTECH worked on my AR, I am not sure what to do...

Re: What is the 'Glock' of .308's? Cool - thanks for input, guys. It looks like FAL might be the way to go. Heck, the FAL is even rightfully ugly like a Glock! The AI stuff is some high$$ stuff - yikes! So follow-up question, then. If you were to recommend a FAL, which make/model would you...

With the high potential for rapid inflation and interest rates in the decimal points for savings, I might as well put my money to some use. Here is what I am looking for: •The 'Glock' of .308's. I had an AR-10 years ago that was a POS as far as reliability. Constant FTFs, factory mags and...
