What magnifier/red dot combo would y'all recommend? Not against trying something new.
Depends on your budget? If you want cost efficient, AT3 makes a combo for like 200-300 I think? It's been alright for me. If you don't care about price, can't go wrong with EO Tech
> Eh using my magnifiers I never had any issues . All I did was zero my red dot and toss a magnifier on and it was fine
@TacticalBeard thatโs gonna be a naw Chief. Chuck p and Aaron Cowan would disagree
Care to link sources ?
@Soulraiser the smaller the dot the better so somthing like the 1 MOA dot of the eotech or Leupolds new red dot would be ideal.
I liked the MRO but my astigmatism favored the eotech so I sold the 2MOA MRO. Aimpont is another gold standard red dot but I personally like the wide objective lense of the MRO way more than the aimpoints
Jesus christ @TacticalBeard ; idk if I want to spend $1k on an optic... Definitely looking a little more budget friendly than that. That said, every eotech I've ever used was the most blurry SOB that made the optic borderline unusable. I'll have to do more research on this magnifier thing..
I need to train.
@Soulraiser sounds like you have astigmatism and need to avoide red dots and holosights all together
I've never had issues with any other red dots. Just eotech. My vision is actually quite a bit better than average.
Thinking I'll just stick to grabbing a vortex spitfire 3x. Price just makes sense and I've had amazing luck with them in the past. I'll just have to mount my irons canted.
@Crye_Salesman I feel like an idiot lol yes i zero my red dot and then adjust the magnifier. For some reason I thought we were talking about no matter what you do a magnifier will mess with your zero/poi shift.
Great videos btw
Is Andersons Manufacturing AR15 lowers any good? I got 2 (they were the only ones available i could find)
Ooooo... ooooo.. no baby girl what is you doin...
๐ that bad?
Poverty Pony is known for having issues...
๐ fuk
Better than no AR i guess lol
Will it go bang and your on a tight budget yes. Are there better options yes
Their QC is why no one actually recommends them though.
I'd take PSA over them any day at this point.
As long as it holds I'm good, I can upgrade later
Really, the only way to see if they'll last, is take them out and shoot them.
If they do okay then, you'll be alright.
I mean you could inspect and gauge them first
I got 2, lol hopefully ones good lol
If you have a friend who has the tools, yeah.
Theyre stripped, not 80%
Well yeah, that's what we're talking about.
You know what though. Honestly, if the dimensions are right... so long as you put decent parts inside. You might actually be alright.
The problems will either be spec (things sized wrong) which you could check with some basic hand tools for most of those.
Or metallurgy, which you wonโt really know until it breaks, or you see cracks, etc
For sure, hoping to get them today if the background check isn't delayed
Let's see what kinda metal they use.. To google!
Says it's 7075 T6 aluminum
7075 T6 aluminum... and they claim it's Mil-spec
@Soulraiser vortex has a great warranty . If your looking at other options primary arms also makes great prism scope but that ACSS reticle primary arms uses is ๐
7075 aluminium alloy is an aluminium alloy, with zinc as the primary alloying element. It has excellent mechanical properties, and exhibits good ductility, high strength, toughness and good resistance to fatigue. It is more susceptible to embrittlement than many other aluminium alloys because of microsegregation, but has significantly better corrosion resistance than the 2000 alloys. It is one of the most commonly used aluminium alloy for highly stressed structural applications, and has been extensively utilized in aircraft structural parts.
You might actually be okay.
I would just.... hide the logo. Hahaha
