Anybody own a Lucid HD7 Red Dot
I like the multiple reticles but it looks like it would be really heavy for a 1x optic.

Local carbine training?
Awesome that's the type of thing I was looking for.

If the US was invaded
Lol. Didnt Japan look into this before WWII? I believe they found that "there would be a gun behind every blade of grass" or something to that effect. Not to mention we'd see any mass invasion attempt coming a figurative mile away. I guess of I had to pick a place it would be the west coast to invade, with a blitzkrieg strategy. Take as much land as quickly as possible. Jon's right though, a nuclear attack is much more likely.

Out of curiosity, what provisions are comp/training based? Obviously you wont be running flash bangs and breaching charges, what will take its place?

Keep in mind not to block your pistol draw in your strong side.

I'm glad I didn't do double m4 mags in front. Prone would be awkward. I do have my single stack 1911 mags and tq on top of the Mags. Works pretty well. I still have room for 5-6 rifle mags, a flashlight pouch, knife pouch, and in panel and ifak. I will be moving the ifak to the belt giving me even more room.

First Build (HD AR)
Two point!! Single point will be hard to control at best especially with the stress of a HD situation. Pros - weapon retention, ability to use both hands if needed, (2pt) very secure against the body when slung Cons - possibly get caught on something, may be tough to get off you in a hurry, (1pt) dangling over your feet when not held, has a tendency to hit you right in the mommy and daddy button Look for VTAC or BFG Vickers 2 point adjustable slings.

hmm, maybe I'll pick up a glock if I find a cheap-as-hell trade in. God they're ugly though...

Attn CHECKO, And question about cowitness
Yup the red dot will move around in the window with your view angle, but always have the are point of impact

Attn CHECKO, And question about cowitness
That's what I had. I switched my optics out and had my zeroed irons. One other note for using non magnified optics: keep both eyes open!

Ok maybe he lives in pennsyltucky. :shrug:- AR pics, lets see'um!
I know Windham does do an a2 style comp with closed end and that may be a pinned mag. So I'll give that the benefit of the doubt. But that sure does look a bayo. Get that taken care of before coming to nj dude- Attn CHECKO, And question about cowitness
What I did was zero my irons, then place my dot on top of the fsp while looking through the rear sight. Easy zero. Then verify at the range.- Attn CHECKO, And question about cowitness
I'll try to answer the best I can. Let me know if there is anything I miss. I like the lower 1/3 because there is less front sight post in my field of view when looking through my optic(tube, window, what have you). The beauty of the red dot/holo is that you don't need to have precise cheek weld to know where you're hitting like with Irons. If you lift your head up a little the dot will be in the middle with minimal change in cheekweld as Shane said. The dot will tell you point of impact (assuming its zeroed) no mattrr the viewing angle. You would NOT have to rip off your optic if it fails because you can still look right through the red dot. All in all, when you co witness and focus on the TARGET everything else seems to disappear.- AR pics, lets see'um!
Is that bayo shaved?- Does anyone know a good gunsmith in the Flemington area?
Will a grabit screw remover work? you could use that yourself. Maybe dremel-ing a slot into the screw to use a flat head and back it out?- 15 round AR magazine
