    Night Vision Looking to purchase first thermal clip on

    You’re probably correct about where much of the misunderstanding comes from. I’ve seen UTMs and Skeetir-Ls that were well collimated across a few rifles that they were tested on, but you mostly need UTM-X or Skeetir-X to get that result… perhaps a more significant name change would have been...

    Night Vision Looking to purchase first thermal clip on

    In a theoretical world, I agree that you could get a mount and hand guard that, together, push things over the limit, but that’s theoretical, and it would be unreasonable to point the finger at Wilcox in such a situation, while failing to point the finger at the abortion on an off-brand hand...

    Night Vision Looking to purchase first thermal clip on

    That sounds good but doesn’t fit the results down range. When a military style (real) clip on has collimation that’s not quite perfect, it’s consistently off in the same direction and amount. It will always shoot 3” left and 1” low, regardless of which gun it’s on, assuming proper day scope...

    GEISSELE MRGG 6.5 CREED WRITE UP AND REVIEW

    I think the gouges only happen on extraction (which most bullets never experience). It would be a couple of lug edges on the right side.

    Night Vision Looking to purchase first thermal clip on

    lol, no, I’ve seen the same thing and had concerns. If you’re using the internal reticle it’s definitely a concern, and while I don’t know anyone who uses the lasers for aiming, it would be a concern for that too. So depending on your intended use, a different mount could be warranted.

    Night Vision Looking to purchase first thermal clip on

    It’s obvious that many of the respondents here have never owned the devices in question. LWTS - yes, it’s still very capable. Collimation is usually very good. Image isn’t as good as the UTM-X. Expect to pay 4500 UTM - most are not collimated (do not consider this an option) UTM-X - there are...

    GEISSELE MRGG 6.5 CREED WRITE UP AND REVIEW

    First rounds: I had just a few minutes before a meeting today. I had 3 guns to sight in and I had to help the boys with their 22s so this will be brief. My large frame gas gun experience: None. I’ve had a SCAR with an eotech if that counts, and an HK91 with irons. Recoil: It’s goofy how...

    I’ve heard you reference these barrels a couple times, but haven’t seen reference to which heavy profile specifically is giving you these results. ?

    Most of us know all that and are on board with the situation… we just know how to not be a little twerp while communicating it.

    Some care about that more than others (I care very little), but it doesn’t make someone less manly to prefer a certain aesthetic. Jumping all over someone with personal attacks because they prefer better color coordination… That does say something about you.

    MRGG- NOW IN STOCK

    I don’t have a scale that would work for that, but it’s definitely lighter than Seekins, GA Precision, etc. That was the first comment my FFL made, that he couldn’t believe how light it was compared to the competition. The barrel profile appears too thin to accomplish what it does. The gun is...

    MRGG- NOW IN STOCK

    Hey! We agreed on something!!! 😀 I totally agree… assuming the performance demonstrated in the military testing isn’t invalidated (like the Sig pistols), I don’t regret the purcha$e in the slightest. I’ve decked this thing out to the 9s, and the weight still seems reasonable. I’ll be testing a...

    Bump, If you don’t know the difference between L210s and U210s, you’re not in the market for U210s 😉

    I don’t have the specific weight, but it’s light. Very noticeably lighter than a GA or Seekins SP10 This barrel profile, while maintaining the SOCOM accuracy requirement is a big deal. Especially for military or night shooters who will add silencers, clip ons, lasers, etc. up front. Plenty of...
