    Accuracy of a SCAR 16?

    With a 1x red dot type optic, I can't do those kinda groups at 100 yards that you guys are getting. However, I [previously had a Steyr AUG A3 before I got my SCAR 16S, and I find that I can shoot tighter groups with more accuracy compared to the AUG. I think some of it was the AUG's trigger. But...

    Beretta CX4, 9mm

    I would honestly go ask this question at the Beretta Forum. What are you trying to remove it for, however? Just curious

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Remington R51

    I was kinda/sorta interested in it - with the price point. However, there are SO, SO many threads on all the gun forums... Of all the issues going on. I've read enough to know I want no part of that gun. At least not for a year or so for them to work all this out.

    That is an awesome looking gun. Congrats! I used to have a stainless SF a few years back. I do miss it sometimes.

    Tavor or, Steyr Aug

    I bought a Steyr AUG earlier this year. I had the same choice... I got to try a Tavor first, though.. And, I did not like it as much as the AUG. I didn't care much for they "6points of contact" stance that is popular for the Tavor. Bought the AUG instead. However, I ended up selling the AUG...

    New SCAR Charging Handle

    Correct, it is just a new charging handle itself. It is not that entire non reciprocating assembly. And, I like the gun the way it is. I wouldn't buy that entire non reciprocating assembly. I even saw a post yesterday on another forum about a guy already having an issue with a part bending or...

    New SCAR Charging Handle

    There are several different SCAR charging handles around to replace the factory one. With my Mepro 21 reflex sight, I have sorta the same problem that people with an Eotech have... Its so easy to bang your hand on the optics mounting area while using the charging handle. I looked at all the...

    why can't I find a Tan SCAR 17!!!

    I just got a black Scar 16S. I wanted FDE too. And, if I REALLY wanted, I could get one online or at a local gun show - but I'd probably end up paying $200-$300 more for it right now (unless I got on a waiting list and wait forever). I decided the color wasn't worth that much more...

    Rifle Scopes Anybody use the SWFA S.S.A.L.T. mount?

    Anyone know the centerpoint of these mounts? Is it 1.5" like the Burris? (sorry to bump an old thread)

    My range toy: I've had it a couple months, but just got the scope for it, in fact. Looking forward to sighting it in :)

    Rifle Scopes Mini Review - Mepro 21 Reflex Sight with triangle

    Well, we've both made up our minds it seems. I don't care for Aimpoints. Even looking down long distances - the "dot" on an Aimpoint is not clear enough. I can use the 1 MOA center dot on an Eotech and hit 1/2" groups. I can't do that with an Aimpoint with my eyes. You are forgetting 1 key fact...

    Rifle Scopes Mini Review - Mepro 21 Reflex Sight with triangle

    Honestly - my brain doesn't even see the blue tint if both eyes are open. Close one eye, and THEN I see the blue tint. And even then, its not a big deal. So, most of the time - it doesn't exist. I guess the brain compensates by combining the two images. As for the aimpoint, they don't work for...

    Rifle Scopes Mini Review - Mepro 21 Reflex Sight with triangle

    It honestly can depend on the window and some other factors. And, how far away you are from the window. Get closer to the window, and there is no problem. I wholeheartedly agree with you, and this is why I didn't buy an RX30 after borrowing one... And, why I returned the Mepro reflex sight I...

    Rifle Scopes Mini Review - Mepro 21 Reflex Sight with triangle

    Meprolight M21 Reflex Sight A few years ago, I tried a Trijicon RX30 Reflex sight, as well as the previous version of the Mepro Reflex sight. Both suffered from indoor washout when not enough light hit the fiber optics... But, it wasn't quite dark enough for the tritium... This usually...

    Rifle Scopes Fake leupold ordeal

    I am glad to hear it worked out. I would have taken the money at least - and then either cancelled the lay-a-way, or held the money until you were 100% ready to buy the gun.

    Cool photos. I really love my shield. I've tried those sites before on another gun, though. Never could really like them. But glad they work for you!
