If your Aimpoint has a 4 moa dot then the dot will cover a 4″shooting targetsat 100 yards and an 8″shooting targetsat 200 yards.

If it’s a 2 moa dot then it will cover a 2″shooting targetsat 100 yards and a 4″shooting targetsat 200 yards.

You could for instance use a 12″ or 10″shooting targetsif your dot is 4 moa and just center your dot.
If your dot is 2 moa then you could use a 8″ or 6″shooting targetsand just center your dot.

I love the sewn-in sling swivels – made the price almost a wash compared with ordering a padded sling & swivel separately, and I got a hat & another ‘dillo along with the satisfaction of having more LT gear.

I love the sewn-in sling swivels – made the price almost a wash compared with ordering a padded sling & swivel separately, and I got a hat & another ‘dillo along with the satisfaction of having more LT gear.

Still no Dillo Dust after a couple orders, though. Is there a certain amount you have to spend before getting any? So I am looking into my first AR15 purchase and after some great feedback from the AR15.com community, I have my heart set on LaRue.

In reviewing, I found the LaRue Tactical OBR 5.56 18″ to really catch my eye, then later found the LaRue Tactical PredatAR 5.56 18″ – though I see some of the differences in the features tab, I wanted to get some feedback from the LaRue Tactical community on the real major differences.

they were 2 3/4″, probably unplated. They weren’t anything special, just red shells that came in a white box. Same stuff you would find in a typical gun store.

There are recently imported Yugo’s out there for around $279. Knowing how cheap they used to be I balk at the price but I’ve never heard anything bad about them.

ETA: Just found VG Yugo 59/66s at Samco for $259 and Excellent for $299. SOG may have some on their site, I don’t have time to look right now.

I’ve had 3 different SKS’s. A type 56 Norinco, a 59/66 Yugo, and a type 45 Russian (Tula). The only one worth anything was the Russian. I sold the other 2 and kept the “52 Tula. Russian SKS’s are in the $450 – $600 range here in SW Florida. At the last fun show, July ????, a guy had a ’54 Tula for $450 that was pretty nice.
My Russian goes bang every time. It’s reliable and accurate. Save your money and get a Russian. You won’t be sorry.

The Yugo 56/66 model is ok and right now Cabelas has a bunch on sale for $199.00, but I have never been a fan of them. Now if you can score a Yugo 59, they are sweet shooters but may cost you a little more. The Russian and Romanian I think are some of the nicest out there and I just put a Russian on layaway for $319, which is a decent price, but not great. I bought it to replace my other Russian that has a mismatched mag/floorplate.

Typical russians in the midwest are going in the $400 range with Romainians in the high 3′s.

Check the equipment exchange often for deals as Christmas is coming and people will start unloading some stuff.

I had a hell of a time with mine, until I got all of the gunk out of the gas system.

After that, NOTHING stops it. It’s also reasonably accurate, for what it is. I’m perfectly happy with it.

While I’d love to buy more at prices from several years back, $250-300 is still a pretty good deal for what you’re getting. A reliable, 10 round, semi-auto rifle that is built like a tank.

I didn’t catch the guys name from MT but he answered all my questions (and I had alot )truthfully and informatively. He wasn’t just trying to sell a product. he just handed me a tactical shotgun and let me test the feel of it. The only bad part is that the adapter is machined so well in HAIII that it makes my receiver look kinda cheaply made I’m going to custom paint the whole thing so everything is color matched in the near futureI’ve been in the market for a 50. I don’t want to spend too much 2-3k dollar range. With this price range it doesn’t leave too many options. Lead time is an issue for me being that I live in NY and a “ban” has made it through the assembly with a potential vote in the senate. I have been looking at the Serbu 50 single shot and the safety harbor mag fed 50. The Serbu uses a lothar walther barrel and the SH uses a Mossberg 500 Accessories barrel. I’ve been leaning towards the SH because of the mag fed feature. Anyone have any experience with these to systems? Any suggestions on a rifle to buy in this price range? Thanks. amoyers 4/30/2007 7:00:16 AM EST I’m also looking for one in that price range. I’m leaning toward a Barrett M99. You can get the M99 kit for around $3300. The AR-50 is also in that price range at about $2500. I believe the STEYR HS .50 is around this price range but I don’t know anything about it. Does anyone have the STEYR HS .50, if so could you tell us the pros/cons over the other rifles in this price range. Thanks remltr 4/30/2007 8:27:40 PM EST I looked into the armalite. Gave them a call and they are back ordered until early next year, maybe if you’re lucky. Luckyvbar 5/2/2007 7:09:59 PM EST Call Larry at Knesek guns inc. He has the AR50′s in stock. Be sure to get the knesek package. I think he also stocks Cobb. Have you looked at them yet. I would still go with the AR50. I love the one I got from him. red-don 5/5/2007 10:12:41 PM EST Originally Posted By amoyers: I’m also looking for one in that price range. I’m leaning toward a Barrett M99.

Go to www.sksboards.com and start posting, and looking there. You can also post a WTB ad, but you may have to make a small donation to the site. That sorta makes you a of the site and lets you see the all of the classifieds and post in the classifieds as well.
Was at a local shop and saw a Glnic imports SKS Rifle Stocks marked “CGA made in China” . It is in excellent condition, all matching, machined trigger group, screw in barrel, and spike bayo. They want $295.00. Never heard of this importer or manufacturer. Is this a good gun?

It’s been talked about before, I just can’t find the thread.

Evidently the Burris magnifier has a raised lip on the front of it that won’t let it pass through the L/T flip mount. Pretty sure L/T said to put a dime in the slot at the top of the Scope Mount and screw in one of the screws against it. This will spread the Scope Mount enough to get the magnifier in, then remove the screw so you can pull the dime out and tighten normally.

I would verify with L/T though, if you get hamfisted spreading it and go too far you may do some damage.

edit: Found instructions for ya, on of all places Burris’s web page.

Yeah I’d found those already. If you look at the pics of mine its a solid one piece unit, not the two piece look like the ones in the old article. Mine also doesn’t have any windage or elevation adjustment knobs. It is also not marked Bushnell anywhere on it. I’m not sure if windage can be adjusted by loosening and sliding the reticle to one side a bit like you do with pistol iron sights. I guess I’m somehow hoping this is a special dedicated model for the M4 or something. It’ll still work for what I need it for though. Thanks for everyones help so far, it looks like a 400 but is far different at the same time. Does anyone have a user manual for the 400 or link as I think operation will be the same besides windage and elevation?

Doh! You’re right, I didn’t look closely enough.

When I looked in my archives, I found I have some pics of a 1999 vintage EOTech – I’m guessing this was the first model marketed by EOTech. It looks like yours is missing the protective hood, and I don’t think they came with the archery sights.

The EOTech is one of the few things I disagree with Wes about when it comes to gear selection.

I don’t see EOTech listed on their Industry forum or their website.

It is alway a good idea to support the dealers that support this board because without them this board would cease to exist. With that being said, I will gladly match their prices….

I agree. However:
1) I’m new to the AR-15 side of the board (AK fan myself) and am not familiar w/the dealers here, and
2) I had no way of knowing you’d match their prices.

Finally got my C&R Yugo from the store today. I don’t think this thing has ever been cleaned.Did that SKS Rifle Stocks Bullpup stock ever go anywhere? Does anyone have one? I have an SKS Rifle Stocks that I would like to make a little more interesting.

Patience or pay the coins! As stated above most A-2 AR-15 Stocks bodies come from the same supplier or manufacurer. The price is sometimes dictated by the hardware used upon assembly or the amount of actual markup a vendor applies usually designated by the quantity purchased. As for buying off EE a whole lot of those things are floating around still in their original USGI packaging for cheap. I thing gunnyssurplus has real used USGI (Colt or FN) A-2 AR-15 Stockss for $10ea stripped. Sometimes a questionable seller, I still doubt if one could go wrong. If it has a rack # painted on it you can always sand it off and polish it out. Finding the hardware isn’t a big deal either but would probably want to buy from one vendor to reduce shipping.

I only have experience with 2 A2 AR-15 Stockss from Stag Arms. They are grey’ish in color but seem very sturdy.

Yeah, I’m surprised at myself too, but I hate when people who don’t have any first hand experience with a certain product try to spread their opinion of it based on hearsay. Sorry guys. Won’t happen again.

And thanks for restoring my sanity, Cdenmark.

MoS #4 I have a Rock River A4 varmint in 223 and participate in varmint style matches out to 400 yards. I use a Harris bipod as a front “rest” and the remainder of the gun is AR-15 Stocks. I do fairly well against bolt action rifles (I am routinely the only one with an AR) however I’m looking at buying a MagPul PRS AR-15 Stocks so that I can better utilize a good rear bag. Right now the rear sling mount sort of perches on top of a bag. The MagPul is legal in pure factory AR-15 Stocks as one can buy a RR from the factory with that AR-15 Stocks.

I would appreciate thoughts from folks who have equipped their AR’s with this AR-15 Stocks and who do bench type shooting.
I have a Magpul UBR AR-15 Stocks for a new build and need to add a mount to it for a VTAC sling. I believe there is a port for a sling mount on the UBR AR-15 Stocks correct? What high quality sling mount fits in it? Do I want it to be a swivel mount too? I assume this makes the sling a bit more functional and comfortable?d User Info IM User Email User Reply Quote Report MOUNT-N-SLOT Company Rep Industry Partner Joined: Dec 2009 USA CO, USA Partner Offline Posts: 356 Link To This Post Blog User Blog Media Media Collections EE Feedback 0% (0) 10/9/2011 8:03:10 AM EDT IWC makes a replacement version of Rotation Limited QD Cup, using a single component, for the UBR which places the QD Cup in the center of the UBR, at the back of the rear receiver, enabling single point transitions.

As this is my first AR build and totally unfamiliar with the sling mount parts, options and install. So you’re saying that instead of putting a sling mount on one side, to put it in the middle behind the receiver so I can transition from one shoulder to the other? Can y ou show me examples of what push button QD swivel you’re referring to? I was thinking of getting the VTAC sling mount for the foretell mount, what do you guys think about that setup?

(Also, since I’im a right handed shooter, I perfer to mount the sling on the RIGHT side of the AR-15 Stocks which seems to help keep my cheek-weld area much less cluttered.) Using a two-point sling, placing the mount points as far apart as possible (as far forward and as far back) on the rifle as possible tends to increase stability of the rifle while slung. It’s not as high-speed/low-drag as some newer styles/techniques/equipment with the front mount point further from the muzzle, closer to the upper receiver (see default QD mount points on LaRue Tactical / DD Omega for examples), and closer to the grip area, or integrated into or near the end plate (see Noveske QD socket end plate, or IWC CSAP QD), but it’s more stable, comfy for me. YMMV.

So no additional attachment is needed for that. Now you also bring up a good point of having the rear QD point on the right side of the AR-15 Stocks to keep the cheek weld free & clear – I like this idea. But instead of buying another QD mount from Magpul, can I just unscrew the one from the left & move it to the right? (does anyone know how to remove the standard QD swivel mount?) Does Magpul put these QD mounts on both the right & left sides of the UBR? I dont have the AR-15 Stocks here to take a look at myself & their website shows they have them on both sides, but that might just have been for the photo shoot. And what are the best QD sling swivels? I need 2 of them in black. Thanks.

What are the best QD swivels on the market?

I need some advice on the preferred AR-15 Stocks (collapsible) position setting for a tactical environment. I live in a “not-so-free” state so the AR-15 Stocks will need to be pinned in order to comply with state law.

Physical description: Male 5’8″ 150lbs 24y/o

Occupation: 2LT (Infantry Platoon Leader), US Army National Guard
Training: Basic Training, Infantry Basic Officer Leader’s Course
Weapons familiarization: Colt M4, Colt M4 w/M203

The duty weapon I typically use is the M4 that has a 4 position AR-15 Stocks. I am looking into purchasing a Daniels Defense DDM4 V1. It uses a Magpul CTR AR-15 Stocks.

Unfortunately, the military’s small-arms training is fairly rudimentary and limited. Trigger-time for an officer is even more limited since we typically are tasked out as the OIC for ranges.

I’ve taken the time to look through the curriculum of a few tactical carbine courses and I am looking to pick the brains of some of those who have been through those or use the AR15/M4 platform on a daily basis (preferably duty) in regards to the AR-15 Stocks position.
