    My Comprehensive Mk 5 Review

    This was cut/pasted/abridged from a Full review I did on the Mk 5. It's also found on pg 16 of the "so what about the Mk 5" thread. I omitted the introduction/narrative as most of us are aware of our discipline-specific needs so-to-speak...

    Weed for ptsd. Thoughts?

    You a pothead, Focker? I've dealt with PTS the wrong way in the past and It was MY experience that until I dealt with the problem (in-between my ears), I couldn't move forward. It's for this reason that, for ME, a sober mind is the best policy. Again, this is MY experience. so... As a military...

    Rifle Scopes My Comprehensive Mk 5 Review

    That's a better test than my 3-prong approach. I still tested it however. Thanks for the share!

    Rifle Scopes My Comprehensive Mk 5 Review

    First off- This is starting to sound like an episode of The View with special guests, Donald Trump, Ru Paul and Nancy Pelosi. And no offense, DThomas3523, but you play the role of Joy Behar. The prices were derived from the same place: Optics Planet. Not Bargain Basement for one and GSA for the...

    Rifle Scopes My Comprehensive Mk 5 Review

    I’m with you on savings... my dad always said “you never have to be rich if you can find a way to afford nice things” With that said, if we’re focusing on comparisons, including shopping/pricing, there has to be a baseline. I was using both common street price and MSRP. I don’t think anyone...

    Rifle Scopes My Comprehensive Mk 5 Review

    You know, regardless of he or anyone else finding a steal of a deal on the AMG (or any others) and I’m not doubting that deals are out there, my comparisons weren’t aimed solely on price... it was a focus on the MK 5. The take away is that I found it to be a great value, even if I had to pay the...

    Yeah it can be tricky as to here it actually lines up. It makes sense and yet it doesn’t

    Rifle Scopes My Comprehensive Mk 5 Review

    Optics planet lists it for 2499 but I think it’s great if you can get a better deal. I think I paid 2099 for mine with my discount when I bought it a year or two back. I ended up selling it here for what I paid. It’s nice having mil discount

    Rifle Scopes My Comprehensive Mk 5 Review

    Great feedback all. I have at one point in time or another owned all of the scopes I listed except for the TX5i. I either owned or did a physical side, by side comparison with borrowed optics for my compar/contrast; I am by no means knocking any of the other optics, nor was I actively testing...

    Rifle Scopes So, what about Leupold Mark 5 ?

    Wrote a review on my Mk5s... I, no shit, sold my other optics and went full retard. This is a cut and paste from a word doc I wrote. Judge away, Primus lol... They’re baaaaack!!! Leupold has created a monster! The new Mark 5HD series of tactical rifle scopes is, dare I say, the most...
