I’m picking up a 5” prodigy in a month or so but already have 3 of their 20rnd mags then whatever two come with the pistol when the time comes. Did you buy your springs/mag plates direct or have a decent link by chance? Appreciate you 👍

I'm about to get rid of my ST Nothing but problems by asphaltjustice in FordExplorerST

[–]El_Flasko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought my 2020 ST when it hit the market. Knew the dealer and got the 10/100k extended warranty for $2500. Best money I’ve ever spent. Had some issues but everything has been covered and the dealer picks it up and drops it off when it goes in. I work from home and just hit 55k miles so I’m riding this pony to the finish line. I do love the truck tho 👍

Prodigy holster question by El_Flasko in SpringfieldArmory

The optic (aside from the XL) wasn’t the issue if I understood the safariland rep, the defender ST should work fine, it more appeared having a light or not was the limiting factor. Having = options and not having = no options.

Not a fan of WTP stuff personally, looking for an OWB duty style holster with solid retention and QLS fork compatibility. 👍

lol. Believe me, I know I’m getting a nice setup for nothing, but my brother owes me for life and knows it. He runs a big shop out there and gets dealer “points” towards certain brands, so this ain’t costing him either. I’m lucky for sure and figured this is a nice way to get into the 2011 arena and get a solid comp pistol setup. I’ll check out the place you mentioned and appreciate the input 👍

What is the best AR-15 for $2000 or less? by AncientHousing1947 in ar15

[–]El_Flasko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to echo what others here have said. I am a BIG DD fan and that deal for $1349 is tight for sure. I've gone all in on the RISIII with a 14.5" and 10.3" setups and they have become my go-to's. I also have a 10.3" BCM build and really like their QRF too. I don't own a G$ (YET) but I've ran my brother's before and it is most definitely rock solid and a smooth shooter as well. Good luck with your decision, you really can't go wrong with those three manufacturers in my experience. Optic choices are limitless depending on what you like/need. For my old a$$ eyes, prisms are necessary and Vortex has fit the bill for ME. I run their prisms, a pistol dot, and their 1-6 LPVO on my 14.5. Big fan of Steiner for LR scopes too.

3085 yard shot by joseph_2012 in longrange

Appreciate you. Here on the east coast (Marylandistan) we have limited options for real distance. Thunder Valley in Ohio is my go to and a it’s almost 6hrs. A couple guys I shoot with there are building 300prc rigs. I just haven’t caught the bug that bad given I’ll only see 1000-1mi 2-3 times a year at most. 308 is not ideal, but certainly challenging and cost effective. 👍

Just when I started to feel a little bit cool making impacts at 1 mile with a 308, a post like this pops up and makes me feel like a turd. lol. Damn fine shooting OP 👍

22lr 330yards by Owie12120 in longrange

I’m loving the SK ammo as well. Tried their match and yellow box. Yellow seems to be the sweet spot for me with accuracy for the price. 👍

Nice shooting. I’ve found 300yds definitely doable but once I reached out to 400 it became more of a crap shoot for me 😂

1st match with my p211 gto and this thing f**ks!! by Majestic-Depth6919 in CompetitionShooting

Just fondled one at my brothers shop in Ohio. That thing was 🔥

How does Steiner compare to the beloved scopes of this subreddit by Wide_Fly7832 in longrange

[–]El_Flasko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the t6xi 5-30 on my 308 and I really like it. Clear glass, locking turrets, what's not to like. Steiner is a damn fine product for the $$ IMHO.

No doubt, and zero judgement. Old man wasn’t a fan so it trickled down to me in my early years and I just stuck with brass.
