    This one has me very tempted since I laid eyes and hands on one a few weeks back. How to hide it from the Mrs on a single income is the challenge that's holding me back

    By the sounds that you have been making Cam, AR's could quickly outnumber those with bolts on the next roo shoot. Not that I'm slow on the trigger but I don't want to watch you boys yahooing all day and miss out on the fun!

    This is how I have my M4 set up


    Weaver Classic Extreme 1.5-4.5x24(?), German NO.4 reticle, in a CAA mount I got from digit. I have pulled off a 200m head shot on a goat with this set up, and achieved another chest hit at approx 400m. I really like the reticle. Glass is very good. The adjustments are terrible - not tactile at all, but seem to work.



    On my RRA middy I have a Mueller TACII 3-10x44. Glass is very good at the price point. Has a Mil dot reticle and the adjustments are very positive. It has target turrets under the caps. It's mounted in Warne QD rings, which don't appear to return to zero too well.

    Off topic A bit - but what happens to the grip? TM makes you hide it so its not part of the sale? or what
    Weird at least

    He'd probably attach the grip to the gun before he sent it to you
