    Wow that's a scary one,what with its free standing pistol grip and big mag and all

    Whats the bit sticking out to the right of the action ?
    In the pic it looks like it might be some kind of guage but my head says it must be some kind of holographic sight?

    Edit to add the first part of my post is taking the piss of course.

    Stock is a Luth-AR Modular Buttstock Assembly for .223 and .308 ARs really like it pretty solid for the price and the adjustments are handy.

    Cam,

    it is very scary I keep it locked away in a very dark cupboard so not to scare the general public an only take it out under the cover of darkness.

    Its a fastfire III holographic on a 45 dregree off set.

    And 45SOUTH was able to supply a s/hand one in 6.5x55 as well
    I'll put some effort into selling off the contents of the gun cabinet if it shoots as good as it feels. Love the feel of the straight pull.

    Not new gun but its got new eyes. Briefly had a sightron SIII 6-24 uptop but was to much fir the 308. After a deal was stuck I received this in the post. Vx3L 4.5-14. Which I really like.
    And first few shots with it today seem promising with the bdc type reticle

    yea mate so bore sighted then shot @25 to get lined up, shot 3 was 3 or so inches high made the adjustment and then out 456 into just over 1/2 an inch. Had worked out roughly what the hash marks ment on the reticle and gave it a worle , @ 325 certainly would have killed a deer. My thoughts on the glass is excellent but probably lacking slightly to the sIII in brightness but I am impressed with the paralax as it has no adjustable and while it may not be as crisp throughthe field of range its certainly not blurry or obstructed
