Short height or short length? I'm guessing short length means weighs less (I'm looking at the extended now, but haven't mocked anything up) Would it be safe to start with mounting in the same location my 3-9 is now, and go from there? At least from a mocking standpoint?

This is gone, thanks for playing!

Going to be mounting this: Primary Arms SLx 1-6x24mm SFP Rifle Scope Gen III - Illuminated ACSS-5.56/5.45/.308 PA1-6X24SFP-ACSS-5.56

It turns out that the Aero Precision is 1.5" in height, so I think I am gonna shoot for that, assuming I get this scope. Looking at the FDE color to go w/ my hanguard that already is

That would have been great, but this is a 30mm tube. Thanks anyways

I was recommended those at first and I think they're great, but probably not for me. I'll probably buy something for 1/2 the price. The less I have to wait to get it, the sooner I can go shooting

I haven't camped since NF and I went to CO in 16. Been meaning to every year since, and our schedules can't line up. Wanna go this year, had a friend reach out and say he wanted to rough it for the weekend - no gear, just handmade shelters, lean-to, tarps, etc. I told him I did that once - in...

Well, these are Razor cans, I thought they counted for slim? I dunno I've got a 3-9x now, came w/ my 308, which now has a Nikon 4-12x40, which I use if I wanna reach out. Stepping this down to a 1-6 variant

Looks like I can get away w/ 1/2" risers and a 1-1/2" scope mount for the same look/feel

Yup, you would be correct. After closer inspection. Center point is a c hair over 2"

Man, I thought some people gave other shit for not making their glass more than their gun, but for the mount to be more than the scope, damn :D

How do these raised mounts work/measure? Are they measured from the bottom of where the scope sits? With the risers, my current scope sits about 1.5" (at the base). If that's the case, I'll buy something like those then.

I'm looking in to getting a new scope for the AR, so I'm doing a little mount research now. What's considered "quality", what's not? Is cheap ok? I'm seeing some in these lists that are cheap but recommended, and then I'm seeing some cost just as much as the scope...

Make all of the arguments you want, but just like gun laws, criminals don't follow decency rules either. I hear this crap all the time from my neighbors who leave their cars and houses unlocked and are upset when they get nailed by some lowlife tugging at handles to see if someone slipped. I'm...

This is currently pending trade...assuming the other person can pass a nics check, will update

Bump, fielded some questions on this - I will make trades for gear or scopes. I'm not shooting or carrying this now, so if someone had something to offer like 1-4x or 1-6x type scopes for my AR like a Primary Arms/Nikon/Vortex/etc. I'd be interested in that. Vortex Crossfire II 1-4x24 -...

There's a good deal on a P-Tactical .223 1.5-4.5x20 with a bdc reticle and instant zero turrets (basically like my 308 scope) OR there's a Primary 1-4x24 scope with a v-plex reticle w/ an illuminated dot in the middle. Both priced the same, would go on my AR. I feel like I'm partial to the...

I don't wanna say I feel like the red dot is cheating, but it feels a lot easier to shoot. I wanna have that feeling when shooting w/ open sights, I feel like I can do it, just need to be setup right

Ain't no quit here, I just wanna figure it out. I'm just wondering why it was better w/ a better sight, and that goes for all of the Glocks I have shot at this point. The ones w/ upgraded sights I have shot better, even under an instructor's close eye. I'm all ready to say I suck, because I...

I'm thinking it may be more the factory sights than anything. If I upgrade to something my brain likes better, that might work better. A red dot is a bit more than I wanna do right now. I'm thinking just a sight like what I listed may be better. I don't think I have an issue w/ the grip for now...

We tried that. Maybe I didn't move it enough, maybe I suck. Not sure yet

We actually moved it and it didn't help. Maybe I didn't move it enough, but it didn't seem to have the intended result. This was also w/ 2 different kinds of 9mm ammo too

So far, I really like it. I had to modify my Bravo Concealment holster for my Shield to get extra cant out of it. They incorporate that into this one, makes it really easy to adjust. It's very comfortable. I'm just wondering how it'll be if I put a red dot on it.

Glock 48 in a DeSantis Pegasus Slim-Tuk holster I got for SS this year, I love it. Kershaw knife I got from a previous SS as well When I go to the movies, I add an AA flashlight Barnes Tactical 115g hollow points In the winter when I'm wearing a longer jacket, I carry the RIA 1911 in a...

Question is, how easy is it to carry? As it stands, the tuck holster from DeSantis keeps almost all of the back end of the slide at or below my belt, which is right where the red dot would be.

Part of it is gout, that's where it affects me. That's on me, but even when I'm doing everything right, it can still hurt. I may have to talk to the doc about going on the daily meds for it. Drinking water all day doesn't seem to be doing it, and avoiding red meat is insane.

I'm right eye dominant.

As you all know, I recently moved to the Glock fam w/ the 48, an upgrade over my Shield. I also moved from 40 to 9. I can't remember if I posted my first time shooting the gun here, but the results were...less than ideal (for me, I'm a perfectionist). I hit every shot left of the target. I know...

Thanks for the confirmation, guys. I had Dave Jenkins tell me the same thing. I just need to check #4 and I'm gtg.

AFAIK, there's no card to get for your recert, it's just updated that you did it. I'm guessing so that it shows in police db's if they run your license. If it's not recert, I'm sure they'll let you know, lol

It was released? I am pretty sure when I got mine then that I chose to have it non-disclosed. So is there no real answer for this, do I just let it go?

Anyone do this yet? It's the request for exemption bit - I'm thinking my choice is supposed to be Option 4? What would I type if I did?

I keep mine loaded all the time, I have no use for an empty magazine

I can't, that's a hard install on me

Did I miss what this was about? Oh, never quit, one bad year or a few bad years won't turn me off. Just hanging w/ NF is enough to keep doing it. Love the time out, love being out there. I also will not kill a deer for the sake of filling the tag. I'll either take a big enough doe or I'll wait...

I've got a BF loader, I like it for what it is and what it's trying to do/overcome.

Yeah, this year sucked, I don't wanna go 0-fer again. I enjoyed the time out, but I am still looking for my first big rack

How did this all play out? I thought I read somewhere that NYC changed the law or got rid of it at the last minute, and SC argued that there was nothing for us/NY 2A owners to fight about anymore?

Got into an interesting and predictable discussion w/ someone on Twitter yesterday, came down to us both being about guns, but he's not for AR's. I ask him why, he says you don't need that kind of "power" to hunt deer with. I tell him I live in NY (I assumed he lived in MN because we're Vikings...

Yeah, same here. NF thought they were moving differently than normal, and I have heard from a few people that people are going out a lot and coming home empty-handed. Came in one cold morning and breakfast was being made. "Ooh, breakfast! I could use that!" I say, only to hear, "Those who bring...

Third season hunting, pulled an 0-fer, didn't see shit all season except that fork on opening day. Went out again a few more times, Friday was my last. Went down in the afternoon and tried a stand @NirvanaFan has on his parent's property. Old little fort, but gave me a nice north/south view...

Bear w/ me as I try to explain this. If I am typing a word, and I go to delete the word, as soon as I delete the first letter of the word, the space that separates it and the previous word also gets deleted as well. Seems like a new thing, anyone else notice it?

This is fucking sad. First off, shooting yourself or someone else over minor arguments/disagreements/disputes - what the fuck? How senseless and stupid. Second, how awful for this woman. She was already a widow and now has to bury her poor children and piece of shit boyfriend. Wow, that's...

I've been away for a little bit, so I come on and I see this thread has 15 pages...I'm not reading that. I somehow got put in a moderator position on a FB NY 2A page and watched this unfold as it happened, it was insane. This dude live streaming/tweeting/sharing as things are going down, the...

That's not an issue that I'm ever going to run across, lol Amazon is showing some of the prices cut too. That being said, I am looking for a "cheap" AR scope. I don't want a 3-9x like I have now, and right now, all I am seeing from Nikon is a 1-4x20 and a 2-7 that looks like it's for 300blk...

I used a shell type bore sight for my 308, just sits in the chamber. Was pretty damn good. Got me close enough to zero so I could fine tune and get 2 deer :idk: Cheap enough and I got it on Amazon

https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/nikon-is-exiting-the-rifle-scope-business/ That blows, I really like their stuff. For the price, it has really good value. I know some don't buy scopes this "cheap" but they're not bad. Sure, they're not Leupold, but I'd put them over Bushnell. Primary has...

The last two years, I've been using my Salomon hiking boots for hunting, no insulation, feet would get cold on a day like Saturday morning. Got my first pair of Irish Setters when I needed some steel toes for chainsawing. Expensive, but worth it. I got a killer sale, only paid like $100 for a...

I didn't get anything opening day. Went out on Saturday and only saw 1 4pt fork head and let him go. I wanna see him get bigger

Voted, but doesn't look like I got a top answer.
