    Rifle Scopes Which ACOG for M1A Scout?

    Re: Which ACOG for M1A Scout? Found a good pic of the gdi mount with ta11. Can see just a little too tall for my liking. It's not much, maybe a centimeter taller, but at that height it's crossed the line for me.

    Rifle Scopes Which ACOG for M1A Scout?

    Re: Which ACOG for M1A Scout? Best bet is to use a purpose made M14 ACOG mount made by Smith Enterprise. It's an NSN piece. It'll put the acog back closer to the eye and keep it as low as you can possibly go. GDI also makes a mount for the ACOG on the M14, but it allows the use of the...

    Rifle Scopes USO Dual Foca Plane

    Re: USO Dual Foca Plane Ok, here's a set of daytime pictures. These were taken at 8:30 a.m. So a little earlier than the original ones above, with a more overcast condition. As a result the first picture (original battery) the reticle shows a little bit. Second picture with new battery...

    Rifle Scopes USO Dual Foca Plane

    Re: USO Dual Foca Plane Ok, I got a new battery tonight. There is a difference in the brightness. Which leads me to ask why they shipped me a scope with a battery that was used enough that it caused the reticle to be more dim than it was suppose to be. I don't mind getting a used batt, but...

    Rifle Scopes Weaver...Picatinny Question

    Re: Weaver...Pictanny Question Correct, picatinny rings will not fit into the smaller grooves of the weaver base. As a result though weaver rings will fit into the larger grooves of a picatinny base.

    Rifle Scopes USO Dual Foca Plane

    Re: USO Dual Foca Plane The lighting conditions are different in my pictures vs. the reps. Mine are outside during the day, his are in a car nearing dusk it appears (when it should be visible). I'll try a different battery, but this is fresh from USO. Does seem there is a little...

    Rifle Scopes USO Dual Foca Plane

    Re: USO Dual Foca Plane I was expecting to see at least some illumination as well. I emailed USO after I had it a few days and asked them, but they said the current system is not daylight visible, though as said they are working on that. I have it on the highest setting.

    Rifle Scopes USO Dual Foca Plane

    Re: USO Dual Foca Plane Here are some pictures. They are taken at 1x and 4x respectively. The conditions were outside in the open, mid day, overcast. You can see the illumination is not daytime visible at all. Only for dusk/dawn settings. But the reticle is still quick to pick up without...

    Rifle Scopes Question about a scope that's been "refurbed"

    It's a Mark 4 3.5-10x40 LRT. I was told by the vendor that it's marked down because it has been refurbed by Leupold. They said it was returned by a customer and.... "sent for visual inspection and reworked the erector system and a complete internatl inspection" ....by Leupold, then returned...

    Rifle Scopes Why do USO SN4's only have 5/8 MOA adjustments?

    Re: Why do USO SN4's only have 5/8 MOA adjustments? When I ordered my sn-4s dfp I asked why not a knob with some increment of mil to match the mil reticle and if it's gotta be moa why not 1/2 moa instead of 5/8th's. So during emails back and forth this is what was explained to me: "Yes you...

    Rifle Scopes USO Dual Foca Plane

    Re: USO Dual Foca Plane Got mine 3 weeks ago. It's has green illumination. It's the first USO I've owned (owned tr24 and nightforce 1-4x), it was great at the range. Around 50 rounds through at 50 yards quickly to sight in for short range hunting. All I had time for. The lit reticle is...

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon RMR usable on scope with 50mm objective?

    Re: Trijicon RMR usable on scope with 50mm objective? Yeah, in all honestly a 1-8 or 1-4 would be nice for me. Really somethign like an NXS 2.5-10x32 would catch any situation I could encounter. I could always stick an rmr on that if I felt I really needed it. A shop close to me said they...

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon RMR usable on scope with 50mm objective?

    Re: Trijicon RMR usable on scope with 50mm objective? I suppose I don't understand the question. But by asking it I'm assuming you think there would be some trouble using the mount I have indicated? This will be my first experience with variable power scope/rmr combination. Do you have...
