Opinion: Here’s the reason people tell me they want to buy an AR-15. And it’s simply ludicrous.

On that day, I made a vow, short of standing in front of my father’s #rifle, that I would be their ally. I have tried to keep that vow.
I graduated from high school in 1973, the same year the #EndangeredSpeciesAct was signed into law.

Man with AK-47 focus of Key Biscayne wild chase and crash :
“There was no ammunition, he was just wanting to scare me,” the owner said. “His purpose here was to fight me.”

Stiched together my own 3-point hybrid sling completely from scratch.
Main features are:
* Quick conversion from 3-point to 1-point with magnetic clasp (thr one connecting the red webbing)
* Quick disconnect if you get tangled
* two adjustment points, one for weight, the other for muzzle drop.
* Cool red, black, and white styling ;)
* All metal clasps and connectors
* Combination of thick and thin webbing for comfort.

So after a bit of tweaking I finished my AR-15 CQC (Close Quarter Combat). The main issue with the old configuration was the Monstrum 3X had really poor eye-boxing and the color was off.
Changes from the earlier configuration:
* replaced the Monstrum 3x magnifier with a Sig Sauer Juliet3 flip-to-side magnifier
* Added hybrid 3-point sling
* Moved red dot and juliet3 closer to the eye giving it priority over the 45 degree backup irons in terms of placement
* Removed fingershelf from 45 degree fore grip.

31401 followers · 49630 posts · Server qoto.orgI have to say, I am rather surprised virtually everyone (I am the one voter for 3-point) prefers a 2-point sling.
One reason I love a 3-point sling is they can be used as a 2-point or 1-point with only a moments notice.

My CQC (Close Quarters Combat) AR-15 build is complete!
Features I added:
* 45 degree angled fore grip
* 45 degree angled backup iron sights
* Sig Sauer MSR red dot reflex sight
* Monstrum 3x flip-to-side magnifier
All in all I love the setup.
My main criticisms are really just two, one purely aesthetic, the other functional. Both of which reside with the Monstrum 3x.
1) The FDE color is off from the standard and looks bad
2) It has a very limited eye-box and thus can be hard to use and may cause issues in a high-stress situation.
Only reason I went with Monstrum here rather than the juliet3 that sig makes for it was because I couldnt find an FDE colored magnifier from Sig... But after seeing the eye box I think I will just order the black one and call it a day. That said if you want to save a little money and are ok with the eye-box the Monstrum is still looking good outside of that. The fact it has diopter adjustment is always nice.

Delighted and honoured to have become the Welsh 50M Prone Rifle Champion this weekend. A huge thanks to the volunteers who ran the meeting. That apparently included me (not a fix!), but sending emails only gets you so far. Big thanks to the range team who spent Friday setting up. #UKShooting #BritishShooting #Rifle #TargetSport #SmallboreRifle #Shooting #WSRA #Wales #WelshShooting #Tondu #Megalink #UKSport #Sport

8 followers · 91 posts · Server hachyderm.ioMy #handgun range time starts with trying for a CCDW qualification cold (20 shots on target as fast as possible). Then I spend 25-30 rounds in 5 shot intervals to see how to increase accuracy, focusing on every detail. Then Mozambique drills with a reload every 6 shots.
I do something similar with #rifle drills until I get tired, run out of bullets, or get bored.
Eventually I will replace the Mozambique drill with Casino drills.
