Anyone Try One of These?
Hmmm just what I want, well over a pound of led hanging out front as far as possible Just remember to start to STOP the transition from target to target about a foot before the target. It might stop in time :twisted:

Hypothetical question about giving up your firearms
I have seen this scenario many times over when someones hubby takes a dirt nap and the remaining family members have no clue what direction to go in and damn near panic thinking the jack booted thugs are going to rope in through the windows and arrest them all or they are going to get conned and all the guns are going straight to the Bloods and the Latin Kings. Really the best bet is finding a trustworthy FFL that will buy the lot. You wont get top dollar this way but they will get the piece of mind they are after.

Hypothetical question about giving up your firearms
1) There are plenty of FFL's that buy estate style and will give said seller a reciept with serial numbers to prove ownership changed hands. 2)Grinding serials = Crime so Im not sure who is going to give a reciept for comitting a crime.... 3)From an FFL it should.

Looking to sell on consignment
I had a State Arms. Its a great rifle. In my opinion it is one of the safest most accurate lower cost 50's EVER!

Carrying around copy of FID card?
To LOD's point, why not apply for a dupe now while you still have the original. I dont know of any law against having a dupe FID???

Carrying around copy of FID card?
In this state, methinks thats a valid concern!

Eotech, Aimpoint or Trigicon?
maks, just be aware of one quirk if you will of the Specter and a bit of a turn off for me. You zero it at 4X because the way the internals work, there is a POI shift when you flip to 1 X. Now since 1X is for CQB, the shift shouldnt be enough to matter but... I know some people that had a fair amount of shift. AT this time I'd hold up to get a look at the new offerings coming from premiere and S&B. They are unique in that they have a first focal plane ret AND a second focal plane dot. Shane

Biblical trap match
What team do the Atheists play on? JK I dont even own a shotgun :twisted:

Eotech, Aimpoint or Trigicon?
Your welcome! The one that I think comes closest to one size fits all is the Elcan Specter DR. but my wallet sweats just thinking about it! There are solutions on the horizon that make the Elcan look like the bargain :shock: So like in racing, speed costs, how fast can you afford to go, such is usually the case in optics!

Eotech, Aimpoint or Trigicon?
Readers digest since im short on time this AM Aimpoint: Main focus is CQB distance. GREAT in this arena. Can fire accurately at distance but not its fortay. Has no magnification so target ID at distance is an issue Has no BDC in ret or knob. Eotech same as above with exception of some new models with BDC dots calibrated for 62 gr. 5.56. I have one on T&E. I dont like it at all. The entire ret is so grainy I dont see getting any accuracy at the distances the dots subtend, but I havent tried to either so YMMV. My personal opinion on magnifiers. I dont see it but cant deny there are many that are effectively using this method. To me the complication of a swinging optic and taking a big dot and putting mag in front of it making it BIGGER seem counter productive to me. Acog: Many models filling many different roles. Likely you can find a solution here if you need an optic that can pull double duty as CQB and magnified distance firing. Other versions of the Acog are suitable for longer distance precision fire but not so hot for CQB. I use a TA33H-G for the all around CQB with some distance thrown in. BAC needs to work for you with this solution. Accupoint: If they put a ret in there like the TA33H-G this would be the heat...but they dont so a variable optic with no BDC??? I dont see it. Post ret is no good IMO. Shane

I grow tired of forums....
Well I dont put unleaded low octane gas from wawa in my Busa either but that dont mean it wouldnt work! Although on second thought it might not. I have heard that the Kriss is a bit sensitive to under powered ammo which the Wolf stuff it notorious for....
