    Rifle Scopes Experimental Advanced Rifle Sight

    Rifle Scopes MicroSight - new, experimental gunsight technology

    Re: MicroSight - new, experimental gunsight technology I'm guessing this development is about 50 years too late for battle rifles. If the disc can be made large enough, I can see it having an an application with ghost ring sights, but otherwise I see it really only an advantage in the...

    Ashbury/Vectronix Tripod Question???

    Re: Ashbury/Vectronix Tripod Question??? I can see the benifit of an anti-magnetic tripod if you are using a lazer range finder with a built in compass as you are, but for most people its not really an issue. Besides most alloy and carbonfibre tripods would be largely anti-magnetic, although...
