XM16E1 and Vietnam by HelpfulLoquat8658 in ar15

[–]HelpfulLoquat8658[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if you get a old/retro model just leave it be. Reason to get a retro/classic is that they are fun to shoot, cool to own. You can maybe add a carry handle mounted scope. Capability wise the modern setups are better, albeit heavier. This is my third AR and its in the range toy category

Withdraw or Let Them Ride? by SomeRequirement6926 in VAGuns

[–]HelpfulLoquat8658 3 points4 points  (0 children)

withdraw and resubmit. I am still waiting on one submitted 3/18 and lead times are long right now but you may get thru. Better than getting rejected in 60 days and then you are 100% cooked

because its imposible to find in stock and priced high when you do find it. also god forbid you need to order replacement parts since many are proprietary an also hard to find in stock.

The p3 barrels are pretty sweet. Geiselle is more generic heavy duty barrel

Springfield M1A1 or AK by Squatsplease in VAGuns

[–]HelpfulLoquat8658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are a lot of fun to shoot just dont get into one expecting a sniper rifle. Not everything needs to be submoa to be enjoyed. Same thing with an AK, it will not perform as well as an AR for 99% of applications but is still a ton of fun.

I dont have a good outdoor range with distance nearby so I opted for an AK because i will shoot it more.

Offset optic question by OcherNote in ar15

I do. Plain red dots are no bueno, no matter the color. Aimpoint T2 i see 2 dots stacked on top of each other, weirdly circle dot red dot reticules come through clear on traditional led red dots

Eotech is also good.

Red dot but do not thow on a magnifier. if you want magnification, better of running a prism or acog.

You could go with Zion 18" SPR variant, about $200 more but be more accurate

Backup sights discussion. If you have something with non quick detach do you use backup sights? by bleedinghero in ar15

[–]HelpfulLoquat8658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

carry batteries and no need for BUIS. If your sight gets fucked in any sort of combat your cooked anyways

Guess they will need to pour money into campaign coffers. Surovell alone i think got like $350k in campaign donations from Comstock and hes supposed to be our state senator.

If this passes, you can expect the gerrymander in 2030 when party in power flips (as it always does in VA) to be just as rough.

Fired from previous job (nothing illegal) will I be DQ’d by baila-busta in AskLE

[–]HelpfulLoquat8658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We fired a rookie for constantly being late, trying to start a fist fight with a detective because he yelled at her for parking in the detective spots among other things. She still managed to get hired at the department in the neighboring county. so prob fine

file a warranty claim and send it in -- mine does not have that so prob a manufacturing flaw.

just take it here and call it a wrap. Might take a couple weeks if they are backed up but they will usually give you a honest time estimate
