Post TACTICOOL!
So I decided that I'd get a dual optics setup for my M4. I have a scope (that will be replaced soon) for long range shooting, and a holographic red-dot for short-range shooting at a 45 degree offset. Shit is boss.

FYI, that's a S&W M&P 15. I'll be upgrading to the S&W M&P 15 PSX here within the next 6 months -- that's the M416 clone (piston actuated recoil system). I'll be buying a can for the PSX as soon as I possibly can, too.

Hey G, they make a LEGAL stock that turns your semi-auto AR into basically fully auto. See website and video links below (the youtube embedder wasn't working). I'm gonna buy the stock soon before it's banned and buy an AR later.

I don't really care about full-auto; it's too expensive to shoot and not that practical. I'd rather have a can so I can shoot without hearing protection.

Just because you have auto, doesn't mean you have to hold the trigger down all the time. Learning to control your aim while burst firing is a fun thing. Yes, ammo is not cheap, but I'm preparing for an apocalypse here, zombie or otherwise :D

That is one of the most ridiculous things I have ever seen done to a weapon.

First of all, that scope is way too big for that weapon. Max effective range of an m4(even a good one) for a good shooter in the prone supported position is MAYBE 550-600m. You don't need a scope that big to shoot that far(or maybe YOU do?).

Second, mounting a reflex sight at a 45 degree angle? Really? You think that is practical/smart?

1) Your body position while firing is far more important than a fancy sight. There no way you have a proper firing position while looking through the reflex sight. You would either need to shift your cheek weld or cant the weapon, either way you are screwing with your position.

2) Any situation where you would NEED a reflex sight, now you are going to have to hold the weapon such a way that it's not designed to be and that doesn't feel natural(unless you go out and put 4000 rounds through the weapon, holding it at a 45 degree angle is not going to feel normal).

I guess you are ready for the real life version of Modern Warfare:7 Fat Virgin Combat, you already have the Bling perk.

Sincerely,
Someone whose done the shit you pretend to do in your video games.

Ever hear of 3-gun? This is what competitive speed shooters do to their AR's.

OMG LOOK AT ME! I THINK I KNOW SHIT BUT I'M ACTUALLY RETARDED. It's a 3x scope, genius.

Again, look at competitive 3-gun shooters.

Again, here you're showing your ignorance of the competitive shooting world.

See above.

You're retarded and know nothing about competitive shooting.

I've been shooting since I was a child. My dad was a marine and my mother worked in law enforcement and was a firearms instructor. Just by reading your ignorant F*CKING post, I'm 1000% certain I've put more lead downrange than you.

Eat a dick, you retarded piece of shit.

Last time i checked Assault rifles were banned in the U.S. for private cvillian use.


"Any semiautomatic rifle with a fixed magazine that has the capacity to accept more than 10 rounds with exception to an attached tubular magazine capable of firing only .22 caliber rimfire ammunition."

Clinton banned this in the 90s and bush (republican) renewed it inThe Assault Weapons Ban and Law Enforcement Protection Act of 2007 .

That is illegal to own and operate without a special license by the government.
