Buddy in CT recently got one. I'll get my hands on it at the end of the month when I go up to visit.

 

He has limited time on it since it is so new, but he likes it. Says the glass is amazing and transfers a lot of light. Great for intermediate distance shooting 100-400 yards. Initially slower than a RDS inside 100 yards - but that gets better with practice.

 

It isn't really a replacement for an Aimpoint or other RDS sight. It is more an alternative to an ACOG type optic with its fixed magnification.

There is a picatinny rail on top for a reflex sight. I don't know how practical that would be on top as opposed to on the main rail, but it's there. I'm hoping eventually my opthamologist fixes my distance vision, but I'll let you know. :)

Understood.

 

You would probably be better off with a MRDS on a 45* offset rail.

 

Those high red dots are horrendous for estimating mechanical offset and you need to use this uncomfortable chin weld.

 

Fixing your eyes is the A answer for the red dot, but the Steiner is an answer for a whole different set of TTPs.

The only contained red dot that looks round to my eyes with an astigmatism is the aimpoint micro t2. Even with the 3x magnifier the dot is still perfectly round. I know they are more expensive then anything on the market but to me it's worth spending the extra money. Maybe there are deals to be had this weekend with the Labor Day sales.

Thanks. I'll try and find somebody that has one I can try out.

      The Tax Man Commeth

      We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in

      I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html

      The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam

      Softer Holster

      I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.

      Light primer strikes

      By Mr.Stu · Posted

      Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
