Rifle Scopes I must be surrounded by fudds

The people dissing a VFG on an AR have no idea why they are useful and how they are useful. And since they don't know, they say stupid things about them. Because...they are FUDDs.

Yup.

Granted, I only run one on my 3 gun setup because aluminum handguards get stupid hot after 2-3 mags in 2 minutes.

Pistol has a afg because I like to keep my fingers and it's the only ar I have shorter than 18". Easy to reach for the 15" handguards forgetting it's only 7" and get a little too far out.

How dare you talk about the original subject, can't you see we are balls deep in troll trotting?

Actually original topic is about a scope and reactions of what I chose to put it on temporarily (hence the reason why this is in the rifle scope thread).

It has been highly entertaining seeing where this has derailed to.

Btw @308pirate actually says some good things to say every now and then. Centuriator? Not so much.

What’s a FUDD? Someone explain this to me...

I first came into this thread when it was just the OP's post and I've been following it with interest to see how far this thread could be derailed. Thank you, gentlemen! Your work here is complete!

Sorry, I have to be the bearer of bad (good) news.
It's not derailed yet. This train barely has its first wheel lifted.
 
Key word there is "preacher", not Pastor, Father, Rabbi or any other actual title.

Sorry, Mike, but Garandman seems to be ordained:


Not so much Picklebunny, so far as I know.
 
Bullshit. We all know that the VFG is ONLY to be used when doing the 1990's swat crouch walk, which you should be doing 110% of the time, all of the time, even on leap years, during RET/CQB/Ninja Ops. Duh. Also, elbows are supposed to be up in order to not only pinch the rifle into the shoulder pocket, but to allow your armpit hair to serve as a wind flag to your spotter. Fuckin amateur hour.

Stop telling them our secrets!

If there was room I might try to put it on my Beretta u22 neos. Just for laughs though. It might be entertaining to see what they think of that. Especially after I get my 22 takedown approved. Then they would definitely flip out.
Not usable as pictured (grooves are spaced wrong and are wrong shape. Scope is floating on the top). Figured it might add to this train wreck.

That scope looks underpowered for that firearm, you need at least 35x mag on the top end. Also you are going to have to mount some kind of forward rail for you night vision.

What that really needs is a vertical grip, otherwise you're not playing with the cool kids.

They're the people that the NRA brainwashed into believing that the 2nd Amendment exists for Mossy Oak shotguns and Taurus Curves. The same people who talk about liberty and freedom and in the same sentence say "The government should do something about those people!"
