blackhawktech [Member] 8/23/2011 7:30:10 PM You are going to end up with a melted front sight. The magpul sights are not meant to be mounted on gas blocks. Gentleman4561 [Member] 8/23/2011 8:42:02 PM I was not aware of that. Thanks for the heads up. Looks like ill have to find a new front sight. scottrh2 8/23/2011 9:51:06 PM Believe it said so in that paperwork it came with. Gentleman4561 [Member] 8/23/2011 11:17:44 PM scottrh2: Believe it said so in that paperwork it came with. I dont remember seeing that but it goes to show you cant trust everything they tell you at the gun shops.

I dont remember seeing that but it goes to show you cant trust everything they tell you at the gun shops. You’ll find one easily, they sell gas block sights all over. Your neighbors don’t care about you running around the front yard with a rifle? Must be nice KimberTLE45 8/24/2011 1:25:17 PM Aimpoints typically allow for faster target aquisition the further forward you run them. People get too caught up in the hunting rifle eye relief, your T-1 should be further forward (like as far forward as you can Scope Mount it on your upper receiver) an be sure that you index it prior to tightening to ensure your zero is retained. Gentleman4561 [Member](West Bridgewater, MA) – The matter of Atlantic Research Marketing Systems, Inc. v Austin Precision Products, Inc. d/b/a LaRue Tactical, United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, Civil Action No. 1:09-cv-10034(DPW), was settled and dismissed with prejudice.

So, I was looking for a sight that I wouldn’t have to turn on, and that could co-witness…. this scope fit the bill. I did fail to properly estimate it’s size on the rifle. Oh well, it works great PUBBOY8/7/2008 10:10:45 PM I saw them at SHOT Show… yep they are big. agentile8/7/2008 10:13:03 PM CarbineReloaded: So, I was looking for a sight that I wouldn’t have to turn on, and that could co-witness…. this scope fit the bill.

F22_RaptoR 5/28/2008 3:50:02 AM I think the Mesa stock tube adaptor was made for using Ghost ring and other raised sights. Unless you have a higher cheek bone (like me) then using the bead may be unpossible, unfortunatly. I dont have one of these FYI. Gungho_1989 5/28/2008 9:23:49 AM I would look at a set of ghost rings again maybe they will fit the bill. I dont believe the XS sights would cure the problem though. knightvision 7/21/2008 9:24:01 PM havent been back here in awhile. im actually gonna try a speedfeed stock to see how i like that. im hoping someone wants to switch from the speedfeed to Mesa Tactical adapter so i listed it up for trade. MAX100 7/21/2008 10:19:47 PM I had the same problem with the Mesa Low tube stock adapter. It didn’t work well with either bead sight or with receiver mounted GRS. The recoil was brutal also so I sold it. I now have a Arms Tech stock adapter that has enough stock drop for both and I am very pleased. Recoil with it is the same as a regular stock. The Mesa low tube stock adapter is well made and looks nice but it doesn’t work it is not a good product. GC knightvision 7/21/2008 10:29:27 PM hmmm, i like the idea of the product so maybe i will check the arms tech adapter. i would be curious to see the products side by side. ETA: just checked the product. i think i may try that adapter. MAX100 7/21/2008 10:50:37 PM Here is the Arms Tech on one of my many shotguns. I reinforce the inside with a large washer that I took down the diameter. The large washer gives good metal to metal contact with the screw and lock washer. I used a larger washer in the pistol grip also. The CAA stock saddle gives a good cheek weld. The Tapco SAW grips has enough storage to fit two rounds. I have a SOG Viking rubber pad on the stock which is excellent quality for the money. The shotgun is a Norinco 982 with GRS. The AT adapter has held up well with no problems after about 1000 rounds. It is tough and well made.

This will result in a zero the same as your irons. I prefer 50yds. but isnt that for an absolute cowitness? mine will be lower 1/3. Aimpoint PRO on an LT150 mount with troy irons if you look through the irons that are zeroed… the Aimpoint dot is still going to be right on top of the front sight post no matter what. Ever noticed how the dot moves around if you look through it at different angles? this is going to be my first experience with my own optic aside from finger fucking them in stores, i havent really noticed that yet Look through it, and move your head around… You will notice the red dot stays on target.

I’d seriously consider getting another one… bwall858/31/2010 1:42:57 PM I did some research on these prior to buying my TA33 Trijicon ACOG and, well, I went with the ACOG. I’ve heard a lot of what the one review says above. It’s close to being a great optic, but just falls short in a few areas that are pretty darn important. Tomac8/31/2010 7:43:36 PM Excellent concept w/flawed execution, IMHO. Battery life is very poor, tritium is far too dim (supposedly for NVG compatibility), fiber optic collector glows at night when using the battery, loved the daytime performance w/the chevron reticle. Brighten the tritium and replace the current battery w/an AA or CR123 and I’d seriously reconsider it. Tomac SageEBR8/31/2010 8:11:40 PM I’ve got one, and battery life is my biggest beef. The batteries in mine don’t even last 2 months if the sight is turned off . Actually finding the batteries is not hard as every walmart and drug store in the world carries this size of battery in their little specialized battery section. asicmsar8/31/2010 8:36:37 PM You should be able to find a used generation one (with the glow stick tube), the tritium is brighter and the cost will be less. I have one and like it, better than anEotechor an aimpoint (in my opinion) and i’ve used both.

Thanks Call Brady at SWFA.com, it is a good place to start as they will price match and or beat the best deal you can find. Bottom line is you should NOT pay over $1000 from a dealer for a NEW TA31RCO-M4. Mine was $992 delivered and was the latest version with external adjusters like originaly used on the RCO-M150 . Be sure to ask where ever you get one to be sure ti is the latest build with external adjusters. This. Just ordered a TA31F, and the price was right. With the price match, it was several hundred less than the SWFA website listed. Groats5/10/2011 6:30:40 PM HunterKiller86: I just bought an Trijicon ACOG at a VERY good price so I will pass along the goof info. Most sites will place the 3.5x ACOGs at around $1260. But botach tactical lists them for $1049. I havnt heard good things from that vendor and have tried to figure out why they sell the scope at such a low price. Well I went to SWFA and saw they have a 110% price guarantee. I submitted the price match request, and sure enough they matched it. I got the TA11E for around $250 off what SWFA lists them for! I can bet the money I saved its the best price for a brand new Trijicon ACOG from a reputable vendor. That’s interesting, I tried to do the pricematch for a TA-33H and got the reply that Botach is not authorized by Trijicon to sell their products. This was just several days ago. TheMercenary5/15/2011 2:31:44 PM I just submitted my price match form for a TA01 I found it at Cals Sporting Armory for $778 IIRC, I will call Brady Monday and let you know how it goes.

I think the information posted at Trijicon ‘s website is pretty much about all anyone has as of now. I expect that the first wave of these will sell out quickly, then nada for awhile, then more will sell quikly, then nada, etc… This is why I did the preorder Quetico4/23/2009 8:42:21 AM I’ve already placed my preorder, but as we know, that may not get aTrijicon TR24 in my door anytime soon. There could be 500 orders ahead of mine. Which is why I’m looking for some intelligence on production output and dates. The vitreolic banter which led to bullitt’s exit is embarassing even for those of us who didn’t take part and it’s unfortunate that civility isn’t a more abundant virtue here. It’s disturbing to remind myself that the posters who engage in those exchanges are in possession of firearms. Many of them professionals. Back on topic:

i have a yugo m59/66 and it is a very good sks…as sks’s go, you need to try to get one unissued etc. The main problem with surplus 59/66 sks’s is the use of corrosive ammo in the gas system causing pitting and leakage. If you watch and get a unissued they run just fine.
