Absolutely true. Higher quality glass, mounts, light source, nitrogen filled, battery life, and recoil resistance. Typically, the dots that change color or reticle, aren't as consistent and don't hold up as long. This has become such a second nature to me, that I forgot about it. Both eyes open is a HUGE advantage.

The thing about a dot like an Aimpoint, is that you don't need to be in perfect form to make a sight picture in order for the dot to be on target. Regardless of how you look through the sight, the bullet goes where the dot is (within a very minimal margin if it has a parallax). Faster target acquisition? Absolutely. An Eotech is usually better with this because it has a bigger viewpoint and less obstruction around the glass, but an aimpoint is absolutely fast to acquire. It isn't so much about magnification either. If magnifying is what you want, than you can add a magnifier to the equation, or just used a magnified scope instead. It really depends on what you're using the rifle for. If it's close quarters, run and gun type stuff, then red dot all the way. Long range 200yd+ I would go with a scope. Try to find someone you know, or a someone at the range who has one. Just about anyone will highly recommend them, just as I do.

When it comes to the maintenance of C-L-P, use FIREClean. There are a few videos out there of cleaning after 10k rounds and the stuff is just amazing. You can literally spend 5 minutes cleaning upper with a rag and get right back to shooting, which is great if you plan on shooting steel. If you buy all quality parts, you shouldn't really have a problem with steel. It usually works better with mid and rifle length systems also. It's the carbines that typically have problems with tearing the ejector off because of the timing of the gas.

Personally, I think if you want some kind of deterrent, install an alarm. Put a bell over the door. Hell, even put a strobe somewhere. If someone breaks into my home, I'm going to make sure they realize they picked the wrong house. No racking...unless I missed.

More importantly, throw it into an adjacent range that you can't see..you know, in case it discharges.

JUST as that post left my memory it comes RIGHT back!

If you want something unique, build a 1911 to your likes. Up until a couple weeks ago, I never owned a Glock. I bought a Gen 4. Is the trigger mushy? Yes, but can be made to feel better. I've already done all the simple fixes for a better trigger. Parts availability is ridiculous. Glock parts are a dime a dozen. I didn't like the grips until they added the finger grooves in the Gen 3's. The Gen 4's have a bigger, ambi mag release. The ease of tearing down and assembling, to me, is very simple. These are all the reasons that I considered when I bought my first Glock. I know it's the opposite response that you were looking for, but it's coming from a first time glock buyer.

Not that I've seen yet. This is actually a patch.

same

I just realized that we don't have a "tin foil" emoticon. Damn shame.

And you would get 2 dry boxes if you bought the 2-300 packs instead of the 600. Hidden sale gimmick.

That's what she said

I can't stop playing this

It's not growing. You're just not using it. What is money for? SPENDING!!

same here. I usually include shipping also but clubvisa handles that. I don't ask questions, I just give up my money. I live by a simple saying. "It's only money. They print it every day." Worked for me so far lol

Gotchya. Looks like 300rd packs are the only deal. 1200rds is $439, but 4-300rd packs is $399 lol. I wonder how many people just click 1200 thinking they got a deal.

How do you know when a deal is "in queue"? I always seem to just miss them.

I think Yeager has a pretty good handle on realistic scenarios and practicality. So here's this:

Yea, everybody kept bashing Romney saying he is as bad as Obama, but the fact is that he did work with both sides to come up with a mutual agreement that worked for both sides. Nobody will ever be happy, at least he tried to please everyone a little instead of pleasing some people a lot. As for Obama working any type of AWB, well it won't happen in the next 2 years. It may be drafted and primed, ready to go at that point, but he won't risk it being shot down by the majority Rep's. You better believe that in the end of '14 you will hear all kinds of threats of taking anything that makes a loud noise. We all know SCOTUS is going to tip towards the Dems, so just enjoy the next couple years, and wait for it. No need for the current fear mongering of an AWB...plus the Annunaki are coming in a few weeks, so none of it really matters anyway

My SR22 came with a laser. It automatically shot 100rds at once and perfectly on target. When I took it off I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. Must be something about .22lr's with lasers that makes them so much more accurate :unknw:

Where's the boombox and underglow's?

I noticed that with the glock sights I ordered it said 2-4 week wait on shipping. I haven't gotten anything more than a confirmation email from them yet.

So true. Those savings cards retain a ridiculous amount of info. Remember the father that found out about his pregnant teenage daughter via Target coupons that are specially tailored to you?

I went with the orange/green for my G17
