Yeah, the Mod 0 is decent from what I hear.

2020-05-07 18:41:47 UTC  

It may look like a bird cage in a way, but it's an actual comp

2020-05-07 18:42:27 UTC  

I can understand if someone doesn't want it though. I've got a regular a2 on my 11.5 because I don't want more blast if I have to use it indoors

2020-05-07 18:43:14 UTC  

I have a F&W muzzle device.. it's a flash hider, brake and comp all in one device

2020-05-07 18:43:23 UTC  

For my 11.5

2020-05-07 18:44:07 UTC  

Looks like that

2020-05-07 18:46:09 UTC  

How much did it run you?

2020-05-07 18:46:52 UTC  

It wasn't that much... I don't remember, lemme see how much these devices go for

2020-05-07 18:47:51 UTC  

Vg6 Epsilon goes for about $50

2020-05-07 18:48:00 UTC  

Aero makes them

2020-05-07 18:48:09 UTC  

Mod 0 claims to hide flash too.. I assumed you had to choose compensator or flash hider and that if it does both it doesn't do either as well.

2020-05-07 18:48:56 UTC  

Bullshit, this thing is amazing. Lmao. It doesn't hide flash 100% but it does suppress it. And the comp portion works really well.

2020-05-07 18:49:18 UTC  

I have shot it at night with NVGs and I retained vision just fine, it wasn't super bright.

2020-05-07 18:50:12 UTC  

Good to know

2020-05-07 18:51:33 UTC  

On a rifle-length barrel it is great. You'll hardly feel any movement. It is superior to the A2 in that aspect at least.

2020-05-07 18:51:48 UTC  

I wonder if I can find other people's experience with the flash-hider portion though

2020-05-07 18:54:40 UTC  

Okay, so I just watched a video. The VG6 does have a bit more flash coming out the front of the device. The A2 does not eliminate all flash either though. But the A2 does have slightly better flash suppression.

2020-05-07 18:55:17 UTC  

I wish suppressors were legal in Minnesota ☹️

2020-05-07 19:00:49 UTC  

Wait, they're not? That's communism!

2020-05-07 19:01:18 UTC  

Also, I'm absolutely not telling you to buy oil filters. But sometimes those cars need new oil filters.

2020-05-07 19:23:40 UTC  

@[CA] SoyBoi magnifiers do have to be zeroed. And un zeroed magnifiers can throw you several MOA. and some of the mounts don’t really work

2020-05-07 19:52:18 UTC  

> Also is the barrel and handguard aero, or something that store is claiming as their own?
@Crye_Salesman
The barrel and handguard are not aero, let me get the specs here in a minute or two

2020-05-07 20:31:13 UTC  

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

2020-05-07 20:54:12 UTC  

What magnifier/red dot combo would y'all recommend? Not against trying something new.

2020-05-07 20:57:03 UTC  

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

2020-05-07 20:57:52 UTC  

> 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 that’s gonna be a naw Chief. Chuck p and Aaron Cowan would disagree

2020-05-07 21:07:10 UTC  

Care to link sources ?

2020-05-07 21:14:51 UTC  

@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

2020-05-07 21:20:11 UTC  

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..

2020-05-07 21:24:34 UTC  

I need to train.

2020-05-07 21:26:33 UTC  

@Soulraiser sounds like you have astigmatism and need to avoide red dots and holosights all together

2020-05-07 21:28:15 UTC  

I've never had issues with any other red dots. Just eotech. My vision is actually quite a bit better than average.

2020-05-07 21:31:40 UTC  

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.

2020-05-07 21:37:21 UTC  

@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

2020-05-07 21:41:54 UTC  

Is Andersons Manufacturing AR15 lowers any good? I got 2 (they were the only ones available i could find)

2020-05-07 21:42:11 UTC  

Ooooo... ooooo.. no baby girl what is you doin...

2020-05-07 21:42:27 UTC  

👀 that bad?

2020-05-07 21:42:39 UTC  

Poverty Pony is known for having issues...
