Photo's & measurements of all components would be a great help , also . <thumbsup>

What was the distance you were shooting at ?

I like Burris scopes, I have several & will be waiting for your review on this one . <thumbsup>

Mildot , the other stuff is too busy & in the way IMO You could get used to any of them though .

Snoops ? I have never thought they really know what they are talking about .

I really don't know much about Body Armor , just what I read or watch on video's & my own testing on what a particular cartridge will & will not do , but watching the Video's on the AR 500 plates , I can see & hear the projectile or pieces of it , going some where & that coating on the plate is not stopping it . Those deadly pieces of bullets are going some where & I for one would not like to be next to someone that is wearing that system when they take hits . Also in their own Video showing a 15 ' drop test , OK they win that one , a hardened metal plate being dropped & not hurting it , that's a no brainer , to me , what was expected , it shattering into pieces ? I know what they are comparing it to , but if I drop my plate from fifteen feet , I sure hope I'm not with it & if I am , I most likely not be worried about the plate at that time , I would be looking for medical attention . My body would break the fall & save the Armor plates any way . I think that as described by 98 ,is in the right direction & if the soft Armor wraps around the curved AR500 plate , it would subdue the fragmentation . I watched hours of video's & read volumes of data from many sources ( including testimony of actual survivors ) before I made a choice on personal Body Armor . My life & maybe those next to me may depend on it .

Kinda pricey .Whats wrong with a castle nut ? <dontknow>

ITS ALIVE ! nice to see your OK . <thumbsup>

Glad it worked out for you . A good trigger in any firearm is a plus .

Spare parts kits are always good to have around ,but sometimes had to come by . Good to see you here .

Spider hole , someone made it for hunting <dontknow> <laughs>

After reading some of the advertised stuff out there , there is some real BS going on as far as what ones product stops & competitors . I've watched enough videos of testing on different Plate types & real time videos don't BS you . I know from my own testing through the years , that as far as small arms ammo ,the 30'06 AP round is a beast . Its a wonder you can wear something that can stop it , even once . This Carrier is really well made , I'm impressed with this set up .The edges of the Plates (Ceramic ) have padding, in case of them being dropped . Adding soft armor in front of an AR 500 plate might help with fragmentation , but I would like to see something bonded to the plate myself , too easy for some frag's to escape between the two ,it only takes one to ruin your day .

New Patch.

I signed & confirmed the petition & no change in any numbers , of course what should I expect from those a$$ holes.

The bad labeled sights are for concealed carrie & can reduce snagging on clothing & such , same with ramped front sights . they may be bad for one thing & good for another , always a give & take on some things . A good target sight may not be the best option for concealment .

I got this in today , sold by MechArmor Defense systems , same co. that sells the Tac -1 Charging handles . Call & talk to Van & tell him your from here & he will hook you up ,if you want to go the extra $$. This , at least to me was not cheap . Threat level IV. I think a layered approach to a coating would work , like they layer for bullet resistant glass . Interesting , let us know what you come up with.

Thanks for the review & photo's . I like the Gas Key Staking on the top BCG , Areo BCG ?

<thumbsup> Ya , it was tough , but we made it . <laughs>

?

That won't help much in some of the rain I used to ride in, to & from work , down here . Could float home some times , I hate getting caught in that crap , but when you ride to work every day , hard to avoid . I had more problems fogging my glasses then the rain.

Ya , it was around 80 deg. here when I took the photo , The chicks on the horses were kinda hot , even with the Helmets on . A lot of Bikini's , it was an enjoyable bike ride .

Yes , The first ones , I think went to the Air Force for there base security Dog Handlers & then the Army's Dog Handlers . Then they went to 1-12 , then 1-9 for the SS 109 Bullet & to whats out there now ..

That's not white sand , its Florida snow.

Nice !

Its not catchy is it ? You know what it would do to us here ! <lmao>
