Congrats, I have the same upper and love it. I have primary arms multi reticle. I can't say anything bad about it. I like the eotech style dot in circle and circle in cross. Stays on zero. Great price. I almost bought a strikefire which I hear very good reviews also

Interesting, I've never encountered that. I'm assuming it happens on the latch side?

I think I may buy a nice used ruger .22 if he ever comes out again. It was fun to have him shoot 9mm and .45 but he will learn much more like sight picture and trigger pull from a .22 He was anticipating the recoil....to be expected

Its supposed to be thicker, and better made to withstand repeated one hand pulling of the charging handle. Personally I have never bent a standard charging handle but after repeated uses I've heard a lot of people say theirs are fubar. As for the extended release, freejersey is right, only really necessary if you have trouble getting to the handle because of a scope or such. Btw I have a mod4 and I'm very happy with it

Well he didn't tell his mother (they are split). Better to ask forgiveness than permission sometimes lol

At 100yds my inner dot will cover all of an 8" target save for the outermost black ring. If I see the outer ring when I pull the trigger, I can group consistantly around 2.5" shots. Seeing that ring helps me to gauge my shot.

IMO, no, they are not neccessary. Do they help? Yes. Quickly aquire, fire, then reaquire with fast follow ups. When shooting to put follow up shots on a critical area on a target. Not really to be trying to pul a headshot on someone. But like I said, if you want to put holes in holes, you'd be much better with a scope.

Been trying to get my brother to come to the range with me (not that he's against it, he just lives in NYC and its tough coordinating schedules) and we finally ended up going yesterday afternoon. As an added bonus he felt like it was time to bring his 10 yr old son to learn about handling firearms and maybe try firing some. Started out on the handgun range and then finished off with some blasting with the AR-15. Everyone had a great time and my nephew even felt comfortable enough to try my 1911. He was a kind of nervous and had a little trouble remembering to keep his finger off the trigger but that is to be expected. Normally he's kind of a pain in the a** but he was very safe. It felt really good to teach him the right way to go about handling firearms.

I don't know if that's significant enough magnification. You definitely can magnify aimpoint or eotech style dots. I feel the main purpose of dots are to quickly acquire targets and connect with better follow up shots in close to medium range. If you are looking to have a tack driver at 200+ yards get a scope. Want to hit a torso sized target < 200 you should be good. I don't know exactly what ACOG's are classified as but they should be in the convo if you have some cheddar to spend.

Here's a pic

I have a model 3H. My brake is threaded on just about 12 o'clock. I was at the range today with my brother and nephew shooting it and it has little to no vertical lift.

Once I get my front sight I intend to go to to sight in. Though I won't be pumping 300 rounds down range. I don't see what the big deal is, I've shoot next to them before with no major issues

I heard it could be finicky with ammo?

Id do that in a heartbeat OP

Ruger Sr22? Edit. Sorry you want all metal

doh! Blueline, whats the usual discipline for losing one's firearm?

https://www.primaryarms.com/Primary_Arms_MultiReticle_Red_Dot_Sight_PAM3M_p/pam3m.htm I have this one which I prefer because I don't really like the single dot. I usually use circle/dot or cross/circle. Otherwise look on ar15.com equipment exchange.

Which style?

This

I really need to get into this myself.

Agreed. Posting stuff about him on a public forum seems like the opposite of what your tying to do. I'm not really sure what the problem you have with the picture, other than the fact that its your property, which I would say sending a cease and desist is your best bet. However, I highly doubt you'd win a court case, not to mention all that unwanted attention towards you.

Took me a month and a half . My gf waited over 2 months and they would not let her apply for a p2p until fid was ready

How exactly will you be involved in this from a picture?

For clarity's sake I meant I was leaning towards the MI

I've been leaning towards that one. Is there any functional difference? I think the hk style looks nicer unless you have the front sight post
