I have all my optics set up pretty well and don't really need any riser. Fits any B5 or LMT sopmod. (Not sure about B5 bravo) adjustable cheek height and position, as well as shoulder pad height and angle. Like to get $85 shipped.
That's how it was for me, but the new format doesn't let me do that. Additionally, once I look at a thread it disappears from the list of active topics until a new post is made. Pain since sometimes I peek at one, and then plan to respond later.
I said that exact quote to my bro in law when he randomly came home with a sweet looking speed boat last year and everyone looked at me like i was an A-hole. It hasn't moved since he bought it. Trailor tires flat, no tags, cushions all crappy since the cover shredded and blew away. Disclaimer: I really am an A-hole....but still...
They have a "what did you buy today" thread also lol. Availablilty of nice stuff seems limited, but it looks like they have better gun laws than CA! I see people discussing getting a carry permit. Also some cool pics in the hunting subforum.
http://www.pakguns.com/forum.php Found this by accident looking up some info on aimpoint. Turns out that when these guys aren't planning jihad and whatnot they aren't all that different from us. It would appear the 9mm vs .45 debate transcends all cultural and geographic boundaries! An interesting thing I saw on a quick scan...they have a problem with local manufacturers buying cheap knockoff junk Chinese AR15s and then modding them to look like M4s. ITAR be damned because they can apparently get legit acogs and aimpoints right in the marketplace. Someone posted a pic of a compM4 with half a nametape on it, kinda creepy to think those may be battlefield pickups. Anyway, thought it was interesting. Worth poking around.
I noticed a marketing push for Steiner lately! Was wondering what was up, they have a lot of cool but really expensive gizmos I never heard of. 45Moa mount? Wow!
Seems I remember a time when one Had to produce a weapon (or at least an object resembling one) to be justifiably killed. Now it seems like every day we hear "he put his hand near his waistband, I feared for my safety" . poop is out of control.
I hate swapping parts without knowing it's the problem. do you have a local shooting forum you can ask if someone else has a 308? Maybe even a friendly shop with one on the wall that might let you drop a known good carrier in and see how it feels?
I'm pretty meh on the whole thing. I wouldn't go out of my way to remove it, but I wouldn't go out if my way to keep it either. My HD gun stays chambered on safe so it's a non issue there. The FA doesn't engage on my matrix gun, but it feels like I can apply the same level of force to the carrier with my thumb through the ejection port should the need arise.
