You seem really autistically fixated on guntubers. Consider just watching things you enjoy instead of things you don't.

I've mailed Al Gore repeatedly about his algorithm failing to deliver appreciable content but so far nothing has happened. This is the America liberals want.

Speaking of EOTech, I saw their new Vudu compact LPVO they showed off at SHOT Show. It's about the size of an ACOG, maybe a bit smaller, but it's a 3-9x variable magnification (IIRC). I've been considering getting an ACOG for my LMT for when I want something with magnification, but if the new Vudu compact LPVO is comparably priced and someone makes a rugged quick-change mount for it that's guaranteed to maintain zero, I might go with that instead.

What is it with EOTech making good optics but having fucking awful reticles? I'm not saying you should purchase one if you want to, rather I'm curious how such decisions are made. Who do they consult for stuff like this?

They join the 41% faster if you make that option easier for them.

i've been pretty happy with the SR-3 and SR-4 reticles. the optics don't have the best battery life, but are very rugged. also don't drop your rifle down concrete stairs after completing a shoothouse. it makes you look very dumb.

You actually fire your weapons? I thought you were one of us cool kids that only buys them for goodboy points on the 'gram. Next you'll probably tell me you actually care about being fast and accurate with your shooting.

I run the SR-5 reticles. I get that it being EOTech, they're going to run their whole "dot in a circle" thing at 1X. But another one at 10X? Come on now! Not quite as bad as the LE-5 reticle, but still...

The HC1 looks like if the MD3 and the HC2 had a baby, and the HC2 was drinking heavily during the entire pregnancy.

Don't some people call the 68 MOA circle the "donut of death"? Do people call the HC1 the "crucifix of death"?

still gotta qual each quarter as a reserve officer, plus the random challenge coin or snacks are very convenient. the LE-5 is way too busy, reminds me of those awful horus reticles that were pushed onto 4x optics for a short minute until everyone's brains caught up with them and realized it was more useful at 6x or 8x than at 4x (US optics wtf who hurt you to want to torture people with that?).

the 68 MOA is pretty nice though and works for a lot of guns, both handguns, carbines, and rifles. HC-1 i don't know, but Leupold illuminated varmint hunter reticle was called the "xmas tree of death" or "roadkiller" when it debuted.
 
Florida might finally fix their shit gun laws this year

Open carry is one of those things I support on principle, but would never actually do unless I'm out innawoods.

Same. I open carry at home, and occasionally in the winter when I'm out and about, but whatever hoodie or coat I'd be wearing makes it a little difficult to see. If anyone's ever noticed, they didn't say anything.

I badly want a tisas 1911a1. The new updated ones that are basically 1:1 repros with the correct ejection port. forged frames too. To go with my Garand. Othais from c&r vouches them hardcore so it's enough for me to think it's worth the $300-350. I've seen cheap 1911s run better than expensive ones.
Click to expand...
Yep, they're well made now and not junk. Finally.
BananaHand said:
I disagree with your recommendation specifically for the RIA 1911. Now these days the Turkish ones can be found for the same price but with better metallurgy.

Many of the long-term RIA owners I know would keep having their pistols shed parts, mainly with external controls like the grip safety, thumb safety, and slide release break. Another one I knew had a full length tactical 45 (straight mainspring housing, Novak type sights, guide rod) not function and kept jamming against a Norinco and modern Colt (2010s era pre-CZ) that used the same ammo and magazines just fine.

A well made and QC'd Turkish guns excellent.
Samhain said:
Aero's been shitting the bed for the past 5 years now, with their QC just getting worse and worse. I only ever bought their receivers anyway, but I now tell people to look elsewhere for complete uppers/lowers, and to look over any parts purchased from them carefully.

Sigh, they were my first build about 7 years ago.

Sad to see how far they've fallen.
Dean Pentel said:
This is not a bad suggestion but do keep in mind when you start changing spring forces in semi-automatic weapons, you need to test all the configurations of the weapon you want to use it in for reliability. Also be aware that some other aspect of the weapon's function will be different going forward. This is not automatically a bad thing, just an FYI
Click to expand...
Yep. If for whatever reason you can't handle a subcompact 9mm, try a .380

@WelperHelper99
As for USA Daewoo.... I HAVE ZERO Faith that even the basic K2 clone will be $1200 MSRP. I'm guessing $1500 easily and the modern Mlok and PIC rail version is $2000 easy.

They are going to extract as much cash from the Americans as they possibly can.

1) because my state is cucked and criminalized open/concealed carry in a lot of places
2) because my state is cucked and criminalized open/concealed carry in a lot of places which means it's overrun with aspiring astronauts committing violent crime because they face less deterrence from law abiding gun owners who aren't allowed to carry
3) because I appendix carry and pocket carry and it's unrealistic to draw either of those when you're seated in a vehicle
4) because the one I'm most proficient with is too large to effectively cc
5) because I have enough that I can

Sometimes I have to go places I can't carry and then I lock all three in the glovebox and forget to take them back out but that would be true even if I just carried one.

I really wish I didn't have family to take care of in this gay retarded state.

So, I know the YouTube operator fast speed meta is Appendix, but strong side is just fine and you can carry some big shit and have no issue sitting. Same issue drawing from a car however . But yeah post gun model. Vedder light tuck is a good strong side holster. Been holding up for years for me
 
Dean Pentel said:
Which one is that? If you don't wish to specify please name something with a comparable size.

A little larger than a glock 19

Appendix is strictly to minimize the chance of anyone taking it off me. The size factor is mostly about concealment.

Training issue. Seatbelt goes behind the gun on your belly under the shirt.

Yeah or you can just keep one handy and eliminate the issue.
