Any truth to that? Martens6/24/2009 7:55:40 PM I’ve got one on my patrol rifle. I do run the batteries at night just because my rifle light is so bright that the reticle washes out at times. As for bright sunny days, it is the only optic I have used that I haven’t been able to get it to wash out. I even had an aimpoint wash out a couple of times for me at max brightness. I like the chevron as it is the crispest reticle I have every seen. I like it as it seems like the best blend of size for speed and a fine aiming point for precision.

The sight is designed so you can move your head around and as long as their is a clear view of the reticle, it will hit point of aim where the dot is. AR4U, if you can hit cans accurately at short range with the EOTech but your groups get larger at 100yards, then IT [...]

The sight is designed so you can move your head around and as long as their is a clear view of the reticle, it will hit point of aim where the dot is.
AR4U, if you can hit cans accurately at short range with the EOTech but your groups get larger at 100yards, then IT IS YOUR SHOOTING, NOT THE EOTech.
This is not a flame, just telling you the truth.

That be me!

BTW, SWFA is right you can’t make a sight that’s 100% parallax free at all distances. All sights have some type of parallex error depending on how they are calibrated.

Here’s what EOTech told me.

Yeah Im pretty sure you got the rimfire only model. Atleast from the sounds of it. I dont know if Id trust it to get beat around on an actual AR or not. If and its a big if that you find an adaptor. I couldnt turn up one to go with that model for my 15-22 after finding a hell of a deal on the EOTech locally.

You did get the rim fire only model! We don’t carry any other EOTech models with that base and that model was new for this year! I’m guessing the guy you purchased it from probably ordered the wrong one as well and then sold it to you! Sell it on Equipment Exchange and start over!

went crazy with mine, its really heavy now
I mostly target shoot (and fish and boat) but I now find the need to use my tactical shotgun in 6 weeks for deer in this area. I have the above with a 28″ barrel and an 18 1/2″ barrel. Receiver is tapped. Choice would be between buying a 24″ integrated scope base barrel, and a scope and rings, or trying to just mount a scope on the long barrel. What eye relief is best? Are those red dot sights a better choice, or will my circa-1951 pair of eyes need a scope as they do with my rifles now? Will use some manufacturer’s slugs (smoothbore) and the shot will definitely be under 100 yards, probably half that. Don’t want to chance just using the double bead and only wounding the deer.

11/19/2003 5:52:40 PM EST
I would go with the fully rifled barrel with the scope mount. Good for old eyes and good for 125 yards. MIKE.
pequa1 11/19/2003 7:53:18 PM EST
Mike,
Thanks for the quick reply.
What eye relief do you recommend?
Would the red dot devices make up for my old eyes or do I really need to go scope?
If a rifled barrel, what type and brand slug would you recommend?

oh ya and if you have one on your rifle feel free to post pics

I have other slings like the Gear Sector GS-2P, Vickers VCAS, but I use my LaRue-Viking padded sling on my heavy weight carbine to make carrying it more comfortable specially when carrying the carbine for a long period of time.

I prefer to use my LaRue Tactical sling when I’m mainly working with my hands, walking, running or climbing, the weapon stays very secure on my body and that is the main feature I like about this sling which is better than the others.

Here’s a video demonstration of the Viking VTAC two point sling which is same as the LaRue-Viking sling.

The D AR-15 Stocks was beefed up around the buffer tube area as deemed necessary in a combat situation, not that a broken AR-15 Stocks AR won’t still function it just won’t function as well. Doesn’t really matter as you probably won’t see more than 6 C types in a lifetime of messing with these things unless working for the govt and even then they haven’t been produced since 1964 so most are long gone. You will see a bunch that are just sanded down type D’s if you stay with retro for any length of time. Was a real popular mod in retroland in the beginning as they command a lot more coins. As far as that goes I’ve seen a B&W production photo in the early 60′s showing an employee sanding a AR-15 Stocks.

Negative. The D & C have different profiles on the bottom. It can be hard to see in a picture, but if you have the two in front of you it is easy to see.

There is no added noise or flash from an 18″ barrel with a flash hider and the loss of velocity is less than 200 fps. Neither you or your target will notice the difference in velocity. bishopm14

2/23/2006 1:54:50 AM I’ve got both, a Fulton receivered Bush build and aSpringfieldfull size. Both are great. The Fulton receiver leaves a bit to be desired in the external looks department. Needs more finish work. But perfectly functional. The 7.62 is better suited to a longer barrell, but you aren’t turning it into a peashooter with an 18″ barrell. Comparing mine side by side, the shorter barrell does have a bit more noise to it, not objectionable but is there. Anytime you shorten the barrell, you’re gonna increase the noise a bit. Same with muzzle flash usually.As far as range, you’re sight calibrations won’t be quite right at longer ranges, but the notion of any rack grade, iron sighted 7.62 gas gun shooting standard ball ammo having an effective range of 900 meters, much less with a carbine length barrell is a bit laughable.(Isolated AFPJ stories notwithstanding)Yeah, every magazine’s gonna have one or two “golden BBs” in at that range, but that’s far from meaning that’s the effective range, which last time I checked, was the range at which hit probability drops below 50%.

I know the battery is too large so it’s not even possible, but the only way it could have been better was if it could somehow fit a spare battery like my old M3 and LaRue Tactical mount did. As it stands though, it’s perfect. I can fit one on top of my ACR grip plug though so it’s not an issue.

Clearly you didn’t attend LaRue Tactical Range Day.

Honestly, all their advertizing on arfcom, including the giveaways, probably amounts to a pretty small budget when compared to typical mass-media campaigns.

But word of mouth is the best advertizing there is.

I was thinking we could have one that was dedicated to the SKS. I bought (layaway) a Yugo SKS Rifle Stocks today, I paid $251 (is that a good price?) total. It has the flip up grenade sight, and long muzzle device. Stock was dark (possibly dirty?), all numbers matched (don’t know if that’s a big deal?) and the pad on the butt plate was intact. I don’t know much about the SKS, but I’m betting someone here does. I’ll post up some pics of it next week.

SKS are good simple reliable rifles, hard to beat.
Order up some spam cans of ammo on stripper clips.
The stippers are resuable, and make loading fast.

Price, not bad these days, when SKS’s first started to get imported many years ago they where around $75 – $100 wholesell. Ammo was about that same price for 1100 on stippers and 1500 loose.
Should have put away a case of the russian ones. I like the looks of the older Russian ones, they are listed as C & R’s nowadays.

Its been reported, but I’m not sure if 100% fact, that China imported more SKS’s in a 3-5 year span then the entire production of Win. Model 94′s.

Price, not bad these days, when SKS’s first started to get imported many years ago they where around $75 – $100 wholesell. Ammo was about that same price for 1100 on stippers and 1500 loose.
Should have put away a case of the russian ones. I like the looks of the older Russian ones, they are listed as C & R’s nowadays.

Its been reported, but I’m not sure if 100% fact, that China imported more SKS’s in a 3-5 year span then the entire production of Win. Model 94′s.

im not saying your wrong (seriously i’m not)
but i definitly re buying 2 crates of sks’s in 94 (pretty sure it was 94) for a grand total of about 45 dollars a rifle
couldn’t tell you what kind they were, i was all of about 16 and my “cousin” was 18, and at the time it seemed like an awesome idea.

as teenagers coming out of the cold war era we had a serious survivor mentality for some reason, so the crates and ammo we picked up with em went into a “cache” for a lack of a better word. where we “lived” at the time, that kind of stuff didn’t really raise any eyebrows. They guy we bought em from was a serious, old school, country, kitchen table ffl, who had crates and crates of stuff in his garage.

which reminds me, i should prolly go retrieve them from their current location before that property gets sold.

hadn’t even thought about those rifles in years.

In ’94, they were probably Chinese.

That’s about the time they were as common as most anything else in the local stores.

I should have bought more and I should have held on the the ones I bought. Have one Yugo now.

Oh yes, the Norinco SKS. I have both the rifle and carbine version. Great shooters and neither have ever failed to go bang. Back in the early 90′s you could get a rifle and 1,000 rounds for under $150 IIRC. Now I see them selling for $300+.

i dont even know what version they are,

all we knew was they were 40$ a rifle in crates of 10 with all kinds of cool shit, and the ammo was cheap as hell. Since we “put them down” we havent even touched the spot where they are, out of sight out of mind and all,

i think we pretty much verified that they were all real rifles, and then we set em up for loooooong term storage.

that old guy was cool as hell, he always had all kinds of crap, i think he went to alot of auctions at the ng base nearby.

we ended up with all kinds of cool stuff everytime we swung by

i’ll be the first to admit that my childhood was kind of different than most other folks, had alot of slightly unhinged vets as role models, who thought that kids should know everything they had to teach about what they learned in the service.

and the local neighbors (ie on the bounds of our acerage) were pretty much all serious survivalists, learned alooooot

and alot of what i learned has paid huge dividends in my military carrer

I have the REV F 512′s in stock and they HAVE the raised rubber face plate!I just bought a used eothech sight off the equipment exchange, and it appears to function normally. However, if I set the sight (by itself), flat on a table and move my head around it, the point of aim changes. I tried this because my groups at 100yrds were huge, although I can still efficiently recycle soda cans at short range. Does anyone else have this problem? I thought the benifit of the holographic sight was that the point of aim isn’t dependant on your viewing angle.

(I believe this is how it works, I’m not really 100% sure as I haven’t researched it much). The PredatAR has the standard 0 MOA cant top rail. -OBR has a heavier barrel profile, the PredatAR has a light-weight barrel profile. The heavier barrel will be able to absorb more heat and will exhibit less flexing while firing and may be better for pure precision applications. The PredatAR’s lighter barrel is great for CQB or competitions where speed is going to be the most important. It is also still extremely accurate as any LaRue Tactical rifle will be. But it shouldn’t be just as consistently accurate as the OBR (at least, on paper).

I was planning on picking up a 517 and 3x for my AR.

CrazyK,

There are a number of combinations that will work for you, especially if you don’t have the bulky m4 style handgurds to contend with, which will not let you move the EOTech far forward enough for some applications.

My unique problem is that I am trying to use the Colt 6920 in it’s stock form without
any modification and trying to get all three components to fit and cowitness on that limited length of Colt rail. Most folks are willing to either settle for the EOTech and just a magnifier, or an EOTech and just the BUIS.

I then went with an Aimpoint Aimpoint ML3 with a B&T low mount and that set up worked a lot better but still not optimal. I recently purchased a Aimpoint T-1 and mounted it to the forward rail and that gives you almost a perfect cheekweld without the use of any add ons to the stock. So my recommendation at this point is to go with the Aimpoint T1 Micro. Thanks! Can you see/use the irons through the T1 mounted in that manner? I’d prefer something where I can use the irons (if needed) without removing the optic… otherwise, I’ll probably end up using some sort of QD mount. With the scout and a T1 they will not cowitness. Close but no cigar. The T1 is slightly higher than the sight plane. For a standard stock gun, I like the T-1 as it sits very low. It is a narrow tube however which some users may not like.
