jfeenin Posted June 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 RayGun19... Thanks for the offer but there is no way I could afford to take the time off work to drive to IL to replace a $33 part. My wife is super supportive of my shooting hobby but she would flip on me if I told her I was going to do that. LOL I'd need to find a place to live and sleep when I got there LOL.

RayGun19 Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Well, depending on what you do for a living, and how close you are with your wife, I have a spare room. <lmao> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfeenin Posted June 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 The job I'd be OK with losing but I'll keep the wife. She makes me spend more money on nicer guns than I would even for myself LOL Her dad always tells her that if her mother was more like her they'd still be together. <laughs> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayGun19 Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Yeah. Mine has an HK USP45, M4 with TA31ECOS ACOG and goes to practical rifle/combat shoots with me. All that in 36x28x34 and 5'2". KEEPER for sure. <thumbsup> I can't even imagine having a wife that didn't like me having firearms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrraley Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 The extractor is made to look like that. You will also notice another relief cut on the inside of the extractor also. All of mine look just like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayGun19 Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 I think you should just give your AR10 to me. Although I'm not sure what I would do with 2 of them. <laughs> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfeenin Posted June 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 Well you could give me yours and have the joy of building yourself a new one... <lmao> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayGun19 Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 Hahahaha. I just got done with mine. I don't have online photographs though. If you PM me your cell, I can text you a pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfeenin Posted July 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 OK earlier in this thread I was pointed to the Bushnell 1x32 MP Trophy Red Dot. I did t a lot of research and found that most people who used this red dot really liked it. The general complain was that at 15.6 ounces it was heavy and it was large. I also saw a few people commenting that it had an eye relief, it does not. it's eye relief even as listed on Bushnell's website is unlimited. However I did see some sites selling it listing an eye relief which is peculiar. I wonder if at one point in time the spec's. between the 1x and 3.5x version. Which I can't seem to find an example of in real life so I wonder if it ever really got made. However if you look at the instructional manual PDF (which isn't what comes with the scope BTW) you'll see reference to the 3.5x version and a picture of it: http://bushnell.com/manuals/riflescopes/Trophy_MP_RedDot_RS_1LIM.pdfAs for the size of it I don't have an issue with that either. It's built really heavily and it looks like it will hold up well. It does not have the large opening and field of view of a rec dot that was a straight through 30mm tube though. It's smaller than my TA11H which you can see here on the LMT beside the AR-10.I wish they did make it because I'd buy it in a heartbeat. I am so happy this optic was pointed out to me. I love it! I took it out Saturday for a few shots and again Sunday. I do wish it was a single dot or dot and circle like EoTechs but the T dot is very usable and is much less cluttered than the Walther reticle. I should point out that I have discovered that red dots can be an issue with me. Particularly if they are set too bright. I have an eye condition called Fuchs' Dystrophy. One of the issues with this is high contrast bright lights will starburst and/or blur. It makes driving at night in the rain a really special thrill. So a really bright or cluttered red dot reticle turns into a mess for me. A properly adjusted red dot in the daytime is no problem though.
