  1. Picked up a Lever very recently, Dajonga (David) was kind enough to relieve me of my cash, was pleasantly surprised when the NICS came back next day.

    David, have you had a chance to try the razor blades? Hope she gave you the envelope…


  2. The new republic is nice stuff, so far no failures and I have gone through 1k of 9mm, 500 rounds of .45, some .357 and a few boxes of .380.  Sent TSUSA an email asking if any plans to produce 7.62x39 and reply was, it’s in the works.

  3. I think High Exposure really gave the best advise, figure out what you want out of the optic, what you want it to do and go from there.

    I only mount the LPVO when I’m in NC and shooting out at 300 yards, when it’s home and for self defense it’s my Holosun green dot mounted.

    My 30-30 lever has a Leopold 1.5-4x mounted on it and that would suit you well also, but that is a dedicated deer rifle, which didn’t need high magnification.

    I just realized I never clarified the gun it'll be on. I purchased the henry long ranger in 5.56. I was thinking i would use it for longer range shooting since I don't have anything that has a scope (red dots on all my ars). 

    I'd like to keep it in the $6-900 range at most. Eye relief and durability are probably towards the top of my list. 

    You just answered your own question, LPVO..

    The MP is going to be a red dot with magnification.

    Does it need to be an LPVO? So many nice scopes out there that will work just fine.

  5. I have a 1-8 Vortex strike eagle mounted on my AR and like it, being able to dial in the focus was a tremendous help for me, the only down side is their weight. On my AK I have the Primary arms 3x micro prism and love it, the 3x is just enough to stretch the shots, I would feel comfortable with the MP at 300-400 yards. Eye relief doesn’t seem to be an issue with either, if I was to do it again I would go with the 1-6 strike eagle, when I bring the AR to NC and shoot on my buddies property we set up at 300 yards and I set the LPVO at 4x and we shoot at 10-8-6 inch plates. The MP will be with me on the next trip, excited to give that a run at 300 yards. You’re welcome to try both if you like.

  6. Installed a red dot on my Zastava 7.62x39, it was ok, not a huge fan of red dots, my eyes are not the greatest and no magnification doesn’t help, didn’t want to install a scope, the rifle is heavy enough without one, decided on the 3x micro prism, sighted it in this morning, ran 100 rounds with it, very impressed, the chevron is awesome, clear and super easy to pick up. The raptor reticle is minimalist enough for my taste, the green chevron is much easier for me than red, ranging, windage built in, 3x is just enough for me to stretch some shots and not to much for in close, once dialed in for my eyes no glasses needed. The amount of mounting options they include is fantastic, very happy with the purchase. Anyone else use one of these?


  7. The wife and I have had it for years, we travel to NC frequently and enjoy not loosing stations every 50 miles, once the subscription runs out it’s just a phone call to get back to the $92 all in cost, they gave up on the haggling and offer the same rate up front.
