    DI vs Piston for .308 AR?

    Re: DI vs Piston for .308 AR? I hear you brother. It did feel like bringing a red-headed stepchild home. Perhaps I have room for another 308 - REPR style; now that the bugs are worked out. I'm most impressed with how they keep innovating and bringing to market so quickly what the customers...

    Rifle Scopes 1-4 ar15 optic opinions

    Re: 1-4 ar15 optic opinions Has anyone had a chance to compare the SS and PST side by side? Specifically, what is the quality of optics? Trijicon optics are very clear, so anyone commenting on the clarity in comparison to Trijicon will put these scopes in reference for me.

    Rifle Scopes ACOG TA33 or Leupold MK4 1.5-5???

    Re: ACOG TA33 or Leupold MK4 1.5-5??? I have the TA33G-H and really like the scope. It's fast on short range drills and can be accurate if you take the time with aim. The reticle design is well thought out. I have a question for those that have tried both TA11 and TA33. Is the extra mag and...

    Rifle Scopes How bad is eye relief on ACOG 4x?

    Re: How bad is eye relief on ACOG 4x? Another option, TA-33G. Better eye relief, I can see well with VLTOR stock fully extended but slight tunnel effect. At 2nd extension, I can see full FOV.
