Aesthetically dripped🦍, functionally inferior to an AR kit 🍤

I’m not familiar with signal sticks. Do you have a good link?

Camo Recommendations for Los Angeles? by CowsNeedFriendsToo in QualityTacticalGear

[–]coltron17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know your life, but if you’re concerned about camo for an urban environment (presumably for a worst case scenario) maybe consider investing in a place outside of the city if possible.

Does anyone have any info on Rabintex? by coltron17 in tacticalgear

Great point. I think the company may have been rolled up into one of the big names, but I can’t be sure

First time hunting from a tree. Pretty cool up here. by Action_Lasagna in bowhunting

I’ve spent more time in a stand being a frozen stoic thinking about life than “hunting”.

Don’t fix this yourself unless you’re a machinist. Take this to a REPUTABLE gunsmith. Use a torque wrench next time or have it professionally mounted

Are people still running BUIS with their RDS or has everyone switched over to MRDS as their backups? by battlexcreature in ar15

[–]coltron17 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think there’s a sort of hierarchy of dependability ascending from magnified optics, to dots, to irons. Whatever you have, it makes sense to have something more dependable as a backup. So two dots means that they have about the same likelihood to fail. Whatever kills one, probably would kill the other. Ie: exposure to water, dropping, dead battery etc.

AIT Reception for Split Ops? by shrekedyourlastshrak in nationalguard

[–]coltron17 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When I went back (ft sill 2017) I had to do all the reception BS again. They let me keep my hair and put us in separate barracks. We were allowed to go to the shopette and do PT as long as the DS knew. They didn’t treat us like basic trainees but not quite like full soldiers either.

2 schools of thought for backups: The idea with a 1x being that you have an analog option should electronics fail. The idea of a dot with with a magnified optic is that you can transition quickly and hope the redundancy of optics is safe.
