I posted a question concerning the Can Cannon that uses a AR-15 lower and a factory made barrel/tube and the thread has a "purple eye" by the number of replies section. Any idea why the "purple eye" is there?
 
After all the corona Crap in the media, I read the title thinking this was a new pandemic variation of Pink eye :LOL:
I have to admit that that's a bit cleaner than where my mind went... I was thinking that "purple eye" was an Urban Dictionary/sexual act involving a person's... uh... exhaust port.

For me I thought it sounded like some kinda crazy scifi drug someone injects/sprays into their eye or that turns their eyes purple or something. Why that would be discussed in a semi-auto rifle forum, I don't know!

It may not be in the Urban Dictionary now, but with a bit of effort, it can be by the end of the day...
 
I thought it was not controlling the recoil and having the scope smack in you in the eye, resulting in a "purple eye".
