Genuine question about the Elcan: be it video games or dot plus magnifier combos, I have never liked switching back and forth between magnifications. I would rather keep it at 3x, 4x, etc.. Is the main draw of the Elcan use with thermals? What's the benefit over a top dot if I'm used to it? Adjusting my chin somehow feels like disruptive than moving either hand to adjust magnification. This might be a personal preference, wondering if anyone else is the same?

Maybe I defaulted to NTCH, but I never even noticed the acog's eye relief as a problem.

>>65143073And they'll still fix it, for the most part
How often do Elcan users change magnification when larping? What about magnifier users? I'm taking a survey.

>>65143162>>65143102How would a qd grippod or BT qd foldable grippod on an arca rail look on this?
>>65143163I have my sources
>>65142816the main draw of the Elcan is cloner retards. thats literally it. It has shit eyebox, shit functionality, shit design by Canadians, overpriced, the only positive is you could beat someone with it. That's it. The Acog is superior in literally every single other way. Pay 2800-3k for an Elcan or 1500 for an acog with an rmr backup for passive nods? you choose...>muh used marketfuck that, get scammed by some jeet or vouchers>muh SOCOMforced to be used by mongsIf you are using thermal you are using a dedicated weapon sight or clip on with no parallax issues as much as possible.I would rather use a red dot + magnifier than an Elcan, better utility too.
hate the finger groove on the A2 grip, have smallish medium hands. feels like shit do i just get a magpul k2? or bcm gunfighter.
>>65143225I have smallish to medium hands but long fingers and it works perfectly for me. If you don't like it sand/Dremel/grind/drill/suck/fuck it off, or try A1 grip before overpaying for grips meng. If it's just aesthetics u do u >>65143222Idk man I think the reticle information, reticle design, illumination, and ability to transition from 4x/1x on the fly especially paired with a clip on thermal or something really seems like a sweet deal when rail space starts mattering. I think it's better than most LPVOs. All that being said I like the unkillable ruggedness of an acog. Even A2 admitted his big ass falling down a flight of stairs and breaking an elcan wouldn't haven't caused an acog failure.
>>65142725weird but I fuck w it. the arca rail might be excessive but if you have to put a section to mount the grip pod I'd do that over pic. Definitely stick with the B&T grip pods or ones that are reinforced with metal.B&T did me dirty but I still fuck with them, shit's toxic idk>>65143222checked>>65143225K2 or B5

>>65143225Belt sander
>>65143261Nope just the non-reinforced and snapped it, though it took longer than I expected. I find bipods less and less useful as I steer towards UPR over SPR. Unfortunately I think grip pods are kind of a cool middle ground but inherently fragile and high drag. QD would be the only saving grace. I'd keep your rifle slickany plans to paint and cover the weltool logo?

>>65143486Yeah that's what I'm leaning towards, but I like the look of colored anodizing. I'm either going to get a black geissele or a brown griffin lower for it.
>>65143280>side mounting the dirv Wish me luck
>>65143321>>65143280But an arca rail + qd grip pod might look sick on a mk16 rail. Gonna rice out the dissipator with the ol picatimmy clamshell attachment method for a Magpul vertical grip or transfer the qd grippod, and mount the x300 + xt07 on the fsp until I acquire another lt752 or the inline one + sfdf Frankenstein wherein if a g19 is not available I will acquire that unobtanium SF mount for the Beretta 92fs. Hmm.. yes... Can somewhere in there
My atrius super safety came in today.

>>65143102It doesn't feel nearly as bad as it sounds.
>>65143530I'm pretty stoked. I never got an e-mail that it was shipped, and I had heard from others that they were waiting 2 or 3 months for it to actually get shipped. I'll have to wait a couple of weeks to test it out, with mother's day tomorrow.
>>65143527The fact that someone at noveske chose to put ghoste along with shakewell, pouya, and eta over a video with slade is so fucking sick
A question for you guys: I'm about to pull the trigger on buying an S5 Tactical SG-36. What do you suppose the viability of a qualified gunsmith removing the big S5 logo on the left hand side is? It doesn't look like the molding is particularly deep, and I wonder if the appropriate grits of sand paper could remove it without being too obvious? I'm going to get it either way, but it's just a thought.
>>65143619Just put a waifu sticker over it.
>>65143027>>65143162Coin landed on G$. I'll just get a dd handguard later for the vibes.>>65143039I don't know what this means
>>65143619yes u can do it easily or just go over it with paint or since its polymer u can hit it wtih like paint thinner o algo to melt it a bit and sand it
>>65143570Yes>>65143565I am stoked for you. Fully semiautomatic is a bag of fun and Americans for generations enjoyed a fun weekend shoot with it. While its utility can be debated, its enjoyment cannot. >>65143551I agree. I personally tend to shoulder the rifle and index naturally within its eye relief.>>65143619It wouldn't be too difficult. Definitely ask them beforehand what they plan to do and with what tools, that will definitely give you a good idea of how much of a ripoff the gunsmith is. I do think with this particular job it might be cheaper and more fun to try it yourself with a Dremel and progressively more coarse grits (be weary that trying to grind it with too fine a paper, it will simply burn the polymer after a while, I am assuming it is polymer. >>65143623This also might be the move.
>>65143626>>65143625Oh shit yes that allows you to be more peculiar of what areas get sanded off quicker. Very wise anon thank you
>>65143631i cant wait to see how well it turns out :^)
What's the best AR15 mag to buy in bulk?
>>65143623Actually, that's not a bad idea. My sexual appetites and desires are normal, though. Instead, I think something like a self-adhesive black vinyl patch would be good enough, or maybe something like matte black car wrap. Thanks for the idea, anon.>>65143625Not a bad idea either.>>65143626Also not a bad idea. I favor having a gunsmith do it just because I don't want to accidentally ugly up the receiver by going full Dremel-monkey on it. I guess the alternative would be to practice first on a cheap, no-name pelican rip off first.----I think for now, I'll just cover it up or live with it for a while I consider the options. These all seem like feasible ideas and I appreciate the help.
>>65143648What are you planning to do with them? Range use? Defense?
>>65142293I had my first malfunction in my primary AR today after about 6 years of use, and probably a few thousand rounds shot. Light primer strike. Probably just the ammo right?
>>65143679Most likely. You can check the length of the firing pin if you want to be double sure, as well as spring tension in the trigger pack. However, if you've replaced any of those even remotely recently, then yeah, 99.95% chance it's the ammo. Stuff happens. I think even after "a few thousand rounds" these things should still be in spec.
>>65143672Both, but leaning towards defense.
>Haven't shot it in over a year.I'm bringing it back bros. An Elcan, CAT KK, and repaint could be cool.
>>65143720Metal:BrownellsFNH (again, expensive)HK Maritime/High Reliability Magazines (very expensive)There are more, but they all make battle tested magazines that are made for the United States and for NATO member states. The HK Maritime magazines are a little bit more sealed than others and are made of steel. They also have extremely high corrosion resistance, but they hurt to purchase.Polymer:Lancer Systems (hybrid)MagpulAgain, both make magazines under contract.Metal magazine feed lips can bend out of spec with long term heavy duty use which can degrade reliability. At what point they need to be replaced is kind of on spectrum. Polymer magazines tend to just crack, which makes it a lot easier to know they need to be swapped out. Metal magazines hold their shape essentially perfectly under long term fully-loaded storage. Poly magazines can swell due the spring pressure. Although it's not an issue with Lancers or Magpuls, the swelling can actually prevent the mag from dropping free in some magazine wells. Most will spring back to their original dimensions once emptied, anyway. I've had good luck with my Lancers. I prefer metal magazines. The one HK Maritime that I have is absolutely solid, and it's the one I would stake my life on in home defense. I think the Brownells will be the most affordable for metal, and Magpul the most affordable for Poly. I'm sure the variety of other purely commercial magazines out there are probably suitable and very high quality, but for me, having an actual proven service track record is one less thing to be paranoid about. Take everything with a grain of salt. I'm not expert. Weigh my opinions against your own research and arrive at a conclusion which you feel is well-reasoned. The person who best knows your needs are you.
>>65143530I don't care if I already own one of these, I still want the Jap one.
Got the atrius installed. Took a little fiddling, but everything passes the initial function check. I'm assuming I'll have to swap the buffer and spring to tune it, but that will have to be for another day.
How likely does /arg/ think it is that pin and weld jobs will become illegal? I head that the ATF has them on the chopping block, and I have several 14.5" p/w rifles.
>>65143096>>65143096>no blemsEh, I just sent back a “like new demo” ATACR 5-25 from Euro Optic that had scratches on the ocular, some kind of weird scuff on one of the internal lenses and a rough side focus. Granted they’re taking care of me and sending out a brand new one but exercise caution if you need something to be perfect the first time.
>>65143788Why would you ever pin and weld anything? I've had my 14.5" for almost 7 years now and no one has every asked, or said anything about it. Nobody cares, because people who don't understand gun laws won't notice, and anyone who understands gun laws know how stupid they are.
>>65143788Won't happen>>65143792Why risk it?
>>65143788Who cares, fuck em. New guy in charge there low-key kinda based.
>>65143796>Why risk it?Because pin and welding is fucking gay. Literally worse case scenario, I pop off my stock and say "Gee officer, it's actually a pistol. All the negros do it." and they chuckle with me. Then again, I don't lived in a cucked shit hole, and shoot with officers regularly. Truly, no one here gives a fuck.
>>65143779>LancerThis place is so shit now. Fuck off and kys.
>>65143789That sucks. What was the box like? I got one that looked unopened but surely there was some way they got the sticker back on.
>>65143802You have never interacted with law enforcement in an official capacity with a firearm, you don't own a firearm, you don't put a stock on a pistol, you don't say negro in real life, you live in New York.
>>65143812Pretty sure I also suggested four alternatives to Lancers by name and said that there high quality commercial magazines, too. If you're going to get this upset over a brand you don't like being mentioned as one option among many, maybe piss off to somewhere more friendly to your effeminate emotional needs, retard.
>>65143823Box looked great and had the seal sticker met on it but inside it was clearly not as it left the factory. Oh well, like I said it’s a dice roll, but overall I have good experiences with Euro Optic.
>>65143859That's disappointing but I'm glad they made it right. I'd really like to get behind one of those scopes.
>>65143843This, I’ve had two interactions with LEOs while armed, one was cool as hell where we were comparing SBRs and talking about night vision, and the other is probably the closest I’ve ever been to being shot. Bottom line is give them ZERO leverage.
>>65143792>>65143802Why do Eglin AFB and jewish posters always recommend that we break the law? I’d rather simply commit to a muzzle device than be murdered or imprisoned by ZOG

>>65144980In 1785, Irish merchant and slave owner John O'Donnell settled in Baltimore after arriving on the ship "Pallas" from Calcutta and the Chinese port of Guangzhou, then called Canton by English speakers. When O'Donnell purchased land, he named his plantation Canton. When O'Donnell died in 1805, the probate inventory of his estate includes 48 enslaved persons, including several infants, with their name, race, age, sex, dollar valuation, and other notes.Canton is quite beautiful and the statistically safest neighborhood in Baltimore City, which is an independent city not part of any county, meaning Baltimore County's relatively peaceful demographics aren't counted.
>>65145005This reads like big boss talking about himself and desperately trying to get people to believe he is antisemitic.
