Well that’s why you have the bcm

If I do that I’ll prob have to carry a backup .300 black or 5.56

Yeah but I can’t carry 2 rifles at all times

Maybe an smg sized carbine or pistol

Like honey badger sized

Honestly don't know about seekins barrels. I just know a lot of people in the pro circuit use their optic mounts

I’ve heard good reviews of their barrels

Not crazy high end but good for price

Yea carrying wise would be tough.

Go with a scar lol

Fuck that would be the best answer

Worst for the wallet

Lol sell the savage and bcm and you’ll be over halfway there

This dude was selling 3 of his on armslist for stupid cheap to pay for wife’s medical bills

DMR is definitely an official military term lmao, it’s not from halo

Never said it wasn’t

5.56 is perfectly capable of precision engagements at 500 yards

Yea I plink 550 at my range 8” steel targets

Been considering putting my accupoint on my 11.5. The Huey is nice but the only thing I don't like is the battery life

I was surprised at just how short 1500 hours is

It’s capable of hitting targets but .308 and 6.5 grend hit it with a hell of a lot more energy

I mean like you’re technically correct

The best kind

And I can put 6.5 grendel in an AR15

And the only increase in weight is really the ammunition

Which isn’t that much of an increase

How to tell if someone shoots 6.5 grendel: they'll let you know before you ask. Jkjk, I hear it's a nice round. I'm just not into wildcats

I don’t consider it a wildcat if I can find steel case

If it didn’t have a surplus option I’d discount it and go with a heavy 5.56 or .308

Certainly no 8mm nambu but it's still nonstandard. I might even have one if I made more money

Nonstandard sure

But good enough that I can stock it deep

Before rona I was considerig a 6.5 Grendel, steel case ammo was under 25cpr for a while

A good amount under

Yep

Oh damn that's pretty good

Reading up a little on 300blk. Granted given my track record of thinking of doing things, I probably won't build one, but the idea seems neat

Oh god oh fuck

Got my new yeet stick

I’ll get one for a truck gun

Move over thor https://external-preview.redd.it/IUOfO_D4_GyIXzDnn8xgK816Z4XYCmKZx0LTsn26g04.jpg?auto=webp&s=627acec7fd5270ecafd50dbb87d629af3cb52f74

Yeah I was sorta considering the idea of a truck gun. Not for keeping in my truck since that's just supporting burglars, but something that I could take in my truck, move in and out of it with, and maybe take out into the woods or something. It'd also be the right size for my fiance

That is not a weapon that has any place in a civilised society. The Only possible use for such a thing is to murder small children and fluffy bunnies and that sort of gruesome violence must be stopped at all costs. You can not justify owning that weapon unless you intend to squishify cuddle little newborn otters. That is what that weapon was made for and they must all be taken off our streets!

"Fully semi automatic assault hammer"

Anybody recommend a PASGT helmet? I've been looking at them and the surplus isn't stupid expensive

So bottom line it would hold while I save up to replace it?

Let me look an an ACH, i may know what it is, just might not know the name

Yeah, lol. Almost the same thing

Thats not too far outside of the budget. You said its better, so I'll look around and determine. Thanks for the tip my guy

Fair enough. Especially in terms of surplus

@poorwithagat ACH is much much better than PASGT, I’d be happy to break it down if you’re curious

Tbh i would

Like whats the advantages over PASGT?

Any good iron sights recommendations?

@Elephant_seal yea, buy an optic

@𝔑𝔢𝔭𝔥𝔯𝔦𝔰 lol I planned on it but I want to have back up sights

Would recommend against the plastic magpul mbus sights. They're not durable enough and can have their zero knocked loose. I might suggest KAC flip up irons

I've heard troy flip up irons are good but fuck troy ARMS are a classic but apparently you can break the back sight if you knock it into something

Lwrc skirmish sights FTW

KAC’s are the best if you can afford them. The magpul PRO’s are much better than the oem backups and are reasonably priced

@poorwithagat PASGT is heavier, protects against less threats, and doesn’t do suspicion harness well, doesn’t protect against TBI’s, and is much harder to attach other capabilities to

The leitner-wise (of lwrci) e-sites are supposed to be good to

The only advantage of the PASGT over the ACH is price, but ACH’s and equivalent contract helmets can be had for ~150

I’m gonna have to disagree with him there

Irons are a staple to a good rifle

I have a set of FAB defense tritium coming in soon, going to see how they work out.

I originally bought the magpuls for my cheap starter rifle, and I don't care for them, mostly because my old eyes won't focus correctly.

Volley sights or nothing...

I’m just saying at least get mbus sights before a vortex

Irons are gay tbh

And stand alone backups are outdated

Psych

Not when you’ve got a vortex crossfire that’ll break when you look at it funny

If you’re on a flat range go ahead ig

I remember him advocating for fixed front sight posts I think

My thought is, I've never had an optic fail on me, though most of them have been duty grade, but it's better to have a backup and know that it will hold zero than to not have it and have some wacky shit happen to your sight because the stars aligned.

I guess if your optic goes down, it's one less thing to worry about. Just flip up your back sight and go

Well use quality optics, and have other methods to aim your rifle, and then integrate backups into your other stuff

Have an acog on an offset mount with an rmr on top of it in case your main acog with rmr goes down

Just stop being poor *is* the answer

By the time you get to your enemy, your arms will be so big that they'll just get scared and run away

Some day I want to make enough money to afford nods and a laser, then probably never shoot it because ranges are only open at night for special events

I shoot under NODs the most with suppressed .22’s and crossbows, so I don’t piss of the neighbors

For people who actually shoot stuff for a living, do you reindex mags or use something like a dump pouch?

I've heard people say reindexing is bad, so I was curious

Depends on the mission set

Some places it’s a big no-no to leave mags behind, and I would never leave one in an overwatch position or hide. But FISH’n I drop them a lot

I was considering something like the trex arms dump pouch to throw mags into so I wouldn't have to drop them. I don't really have an endless supply after all

er maybe blueforce gear to avoid giving the tactical twink any money

I’ve got some roll up SSE bags, I don’t remember from who. Pockets are a real thing too

Some of my rifles I just run irons on them and some i have optics and backup irons just incase my optic get damaged. My Vz58 is just plain irons and i have spent so much time with that rifle that even out to 400 500 yards i can put rounds on target

It took me a while to get used to optics because I spent my entire childhood on irons, but once I finally did, I was much faster with optics

I agree a good optic sight beats irons but if you are capable enough with irons that's not a problem in a way and it's one less thing to worry about

Okay except, there are things you can do with dots and lpvo’s that you can not do with irons. Fact. Optics give you capabilities that irons do not.

Yep I agre

I need more practice time with lpvo's. I love red dots because I don't have to worry about my head being in the right spot to avoid scope shadow. Thankfully my accupoint has an extremely generous eye relief
