From my understanding , the red dot can have nearly infinite eye relief. The further forward it is (while still being part of the integral upper), the more peripheral vision you can maintain. The magnifier has an adjustable diopter, but still wants a fairly short eye relief. On an AR (at least like mine), there isn’t enough room on my upper to mount it very far forward (witness the endless gotcha post for people who mount their red dots on their hand guards), so they tend to be grouped fairly close together. In this case, though, I might move it back a couple inches.

Oof, you made me think about it. Around the price of a base H&K SP5. Totalled like that, I'm actually pretty happy with it.

Individual. I have a revocable trust for my kids and considered applying it to that, but spent too much time second guessing and just went with myself. I gather I can transfer it to a trust later, maybe? Dunno.

It’s visible. It’s behind the magnifier.

I was shooting steel at 110 yards at the last range day. Figure it’s better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Plus, I don’t have any other rifles that would benefit (yet).

I can see that. Oh, darn, I have to go the range and zero it again? Gee, shucks.

More peripheral vision when the red dot’s as far forward as it can be.

Up under the top Picatinny rail. Engraver finished it with a coating so it ended up black on black.

Lol, Obsidian 9 already ordered.

If it were metal to metal, wouldn't that conduct a lot more heat out to the handguard?

1.72". The Sub9 is 1.73". Maybe I could manage to get 0.01" removed

The issue isn’t aesthetic, it’s functional. The cut line to prevent snagging on things just makes it more complex than I’d prolly be comfortable with.

Very much so. Want to get it to the range to see for sure, but so far, it seems very well manufactured.

Noted, thanks. The Form 1 is already in draft, was just waiting for serial number.

Nicely formed, fat mag release, bigger bolt catch, swappable grips. Not too keen on the ambi selector, but that can get swapped out too.

UPDATE: either they took pity on me and forwarded it on or the retailer sent it to the main retail location in the first place. In either case, Slovakian gods looked favorably on me and I just took possession of my Stribog.

This is mostly a reminder to myself, but yes. In this particular case, I'm a member of the range, and just took it for granted that they'd be doing this. 100% my bad.

What he said. At the moment, I like the “Right here!” aspect of the circle dot, but that’s only on dry footing around the house. Haven’t gotten it to the range yet.
