Yea I was telling myself I was going to get a DMR for my next purchase but I bought that M6 IC DI instead lol

2020-05-04 22:03:01 UTC  

🤷‍♀️

2020-05-04 22:03:12 UTC  

Which I’m very happy with

2020-05-04 22:03:47 UTC  

I made a 20" AR off of a Aero upper for my 'DMR', but I might make a new one in the future and use a 18" .308 barrel instead.

Let your gun grow into the glass not the glass into the gun

Or in layman's terms, buy good glass one time and build the rifle to fit it

2020-05-04 22:07:59 UTC  

Yep, I learned that afterwards.

2020-05-04 22:08:43 UTC  

I've learnt that the hard way as well

2020-05-04 22:10:02 UTC  

Well, I already told Leopold Optics that my next LR glass purchase will be through them, haha.

2020-05-04 22:10:31 UTC  

I told them I'd buy from them if they got Daddy Thumb to do an advertisement for them, and of course they tagged him and I in the same post, and he agreed.

2020-05-04 22:10:41 UTC  

Haven't seen said ad yet... but I'm waiting to see it.

2020-05-04 22:13:26 UTC  

For the more budget minded out there, Nikon is a great alternative to the super high end stuff, not as much variety but what they do have is pretty solid

2020-05-04 22:13:48 UTC  

Oh yeah, heard great things about their glass. After all, they make cameras.

2020-05-04 22:33:16 UTC  

Sparrow your friends with Daddy Thumb?

2020-05-04 22:34:26 UTC  

Keynote on the Nikon is all of their scopes are discontinued

2020-05-04 22:34:36 UTC  

So they are cheap but limited right now

2020-05-04 22:35:29 UTC  

I have a Nikon FX1000 on my 6.5 CM its similar to a vortex PST or a burris XTR

2020-05-04 22:36:58 UTC  

I have their 1.5x4 ptac

2020-05-04 22:37:18 UTC  

I like it quite a bit for a budget LPVO

2020-05-04 22:40:02 UTC  

I sent in one of my first ever scopes to bushnell for repair. Their 223 1-4x24. They ended up sending me a brand new LPVO 1-4x24. Didn’t even tell me they were going to do that

2020-05-04 22:40:37 UTC  

Im surprised how clear the glass is. It’s not a bad scope at all. I paid 50$ for the one I sent in. They send me a 299$ for free

2020-05-04 23:03:37 UTC  

Idk if anyone has posted this yet but

2020-05-04 23:23:59 UTC  

I'll also check the pawn shops when I'm ready to buy the rifle. Seems all they carry are fudd guns around here

2020-05-04 23:47:35 UTC  

@GRANITE Not friends with, just messed around with him and his GF in comments sections a few times. Had his GF threaten to taze me once and said I wasn't invited to her house.

2020-05-04 23:55:18 UTC  

Lmfaooo

2020-05-05 00:50:08 UTC  

ddt nikon stop making scopes

2020-05-05 00:51:24 UTC  

This thing looks interesting. Apparently holds 0.5 moa. I wouldn't get the cf barrel version though since i don't trust it

2020-05-05 00:52:42 UTC  

For a 16" barrel, .5 MOA? Nice.

2020-05-05 01:00:06 UTC  

22"

2020-05-05 01:01:38 UTC  

Oh is it 22? I was on their site..

2020-05-05 01:02:00 UTC  

Ooooh, yeah. There it is.

2020-05-05 01:02:05 UTC  

There are a 16" or 22"

2020-05-05 01:02:16 UTC  

Wait, and 27"

2020-05-05 01:07:51 UTC  

They also make carbon fiber stocks for the 700

2020-05-05 01:15:48 UTC  

Sorta eh though, shave a pound off the magpul stock

2020-05-05 01:28:17 UTC  

@Artemis I wound go read the snipers hide forum thread on that

2020-05-05 01:44:32 UTC  

Yeah that's a no from me dawg

2020-05-05 01:44:42 UTC  

Not getting a Christensen arms

2020-05-05 01:45:35 UTC  

Just gonna go with a magpul 700. Maybe some day when I'm good enough with it to warrant it, I'll have a fancy barrel put in like a krieger or something

2020-05-05 01:54:36 UTC  

So, SHTF, what to do with guns i can't carry?
I dont wanna leave them puppies, but realistically I could carry a rifle and pistol on me with a backpack on
