Is it a flattop upper? Most mounts bundled with sights allow for a decent co-witness with the front sight no problem, can always check reviews and generally everyone asks. If you want to mount it to a carry handle you either have a standard picrail mount with a high height over bore or a gooseneck which allows for co-witness.
Yeah it's a flat. I just want something he'd think is cool, on looks mostly. But despite it being a safe queen I don't want total shit. He's got a few legit rifles but as a boomer having a "1337 cawadooty machine gun" ok he's more educated but, I really think having a "spec ops look" gun that's semi useful would make him happy. EH much like many things in life, you need to know your customer/audience. I just don't want to turn it into a trash rod with some airsoft shit.
I like the optics Sig makes. Their budget models like the Romeo 5 usually sell around the 150-200$ price mark. They're nothing fancy, I have the Romeo5 and they're definitely built to a spec, but it's not airsoft-tier trash either I'd say.
or get clones from china, not like they're doing anything with them.
i'll second the Romeo 5, for an inexpensive optic with included mount it has enough features and ruggedness for most people. the only other one might be an Aimpoint PRO if you want to spend the extra dosh on something with increased water or shock resistance, however it's 1/3 co-witness to accommodate PVS' which isn't everyone's cup of tea - the Romeo is absolute out of the box while the PRO would need a different 30mm mount to be absolute.
the dozen or so suppressor forms i've sent in have come back inside of a week (although this doesn't really count for exempt transfers for agencies). the one MG i purchased for myself was about a 3 week turn-around, compared to one i bought years ago that took the better part of 9 weeks.
Well I’m not a glowie or a big spender who can afford an MG, I just want to get a basic bitch QD suppressor for shits & giggles. I was reading on reddit that the NFA trusts are still taking longer wait times compared to filing as an individual.
I got an approval in 24 hrs and one in 4 days. This was about 2 months ago. A lot of stuff is sold out because of this.
I guess that’s a good thing because it would give me some time to save up for what I actually want. I’m torn between a cheaper suppressor from Silencer Shop or what I hear is the nicer more expensive option, Otter Creek
I was at the NRA expo this year and went to look at some guns and suppressors.
Still thinking about it, but I already have two flashbang-tier uppers. If I did get one I'd convert it to STANAG for maximum heresy points.The PSA Krink is awesome
they're doing what
My first suppressor ever was approved in 75ish hours, April 22-25th, on April 29th I put in the paperwork for a second and I havent heard squat about that other than they've charged me for the tax stamp. Im filling out an an eform 1 now and Im gonna go to my local shop to see if they can email me my finger prints and picture to use those for that, and hopefully itll go quick like the first suppressor.
and who would have thought as soon as i put an SLX1x on it primary arms has a new and improved prism on the way. cool!Primary Arms optics were great. The NOVA lineup is super cool, they have a red dot bright dot on a mil reticle.
Sadly they won't be making a premium 1-6x SFP as they mentioned that a 1-8x at the Premium level is so good "we don't think anyone wants a 1-6x at this tier"
Their new premium 1x Prism is.... FUCKING AMAZING
A bit more optic diameter and essentially infinite eye relief. It's a red dot for people like me with insane astigmatism
And who do you recommend besides gunbroker?
There's nothing wrong with gunbroker, you just need to know 90% of the stuff on their sells for above market value and act accordingly. You will go broke trying to win every auction you watch.
guns international has better deals IMO
Most modern centerfire guns can tolerate a fair amount of dryfiring, but it's still that sort of thing where you're putting excess wear on something somewhere, snapcaps are just better for your guns.
I would not shoot .40 out of 10mm barrels if I could help it, you're essentially headspacing the cartridge on the extractor that way, and 1911 extractors in particular are not flexible.
The curved PPS mag fits the Thompson's lines oddly well, I kinda want it.
