    Does fixed front sight position on an AR matter?

    I just noticed this ^^^ The "z" mark is for 25 Meters (82.29 feet) The "z" was put on the A2 sights b/c when the army went from the M14 to the M16A1 the ranges were made at 25 meters to get a battle sight zero for the 1/12 twist M16A1 w/ the 55 grain bullet ( M193) When the M16A2 came out w/ the...

    Does fixed front sight position on an AR matter?

    I'd go if you want to take me... I got spoiled at Ft. McCoy, get your rifle zeroed, go shoot it to 300m, or go to range 34, and depending what you had, stretch it out to 1200m meters... But I will say this my eyes have gotten bad, and need to find a Bob Jones sight if I'm going to shoot irons...

    Does fixed front sight position on an AR matter?

    The right side knob is the windage knob, there is a way to market it when you have your 300m zero, and you can make windage calls at any distance and go back to your no wind 300m zero... Once again, hard to type, easy to explain. Not a lot of math involved w/ getting your iron sights set, just...

    Does fixed front sight position on an AR matter?

    I have found that a proper 300m zero, if it do my work, will work for everything from the the army qualification, to CQB classes, to 3 gun shoots. But remember, I'm talking about man sized targets, not bulls eye targets... If your shooting some man size targets, the Army 300m zero is hard to...

    Does fixed front sight position on an AR matter?

    Lots of good questions... ^^^ I love to give a SDM M16 class, ( classroom 1st ) The base sight setting for the M16/M4 is 300m. Thats why you shoot a simulated 300m target at 25m ( appx. 82 feet.) so when you go to the pop up target range, you can hit all of your targets out to 300m. problem is...

    Does fixed front sight position on an AR matter?

    Off the top of my head, M16A2 the sights go out to 800 meters ( to engage area targets, ie. a groups of guys in formation) 600m for Point targets ( one dude) The reason the M4 and the M16A4 are limited to 600 meters is b/c the suit case handle sights only went out to 600. ( appx. 550 yards) The...

    VP9 Torture Test: Fail

    I dont like the triggers, dont like the way they fit in my little T-Rex hands, dont like the cheesy factory sights, dont like the way they look... But damn they shoot every time, and my G21 loves cheep Tula steel ammo, and shoots it well. Its a modern combat pistol, and my German blood just...

    Modified 5 point contingency

    I was reading up on this, if you have a dog, just keep in the factory sealed bag, it should stay good for a year. Also you could store it in a big plastic storage bin, to help keep stuff out of it. I think I'm going to buy 150-200 lbs of the shitty "old Roy" Walmart dog food and keep it in a...

    What's the best bang for the buck rifle in 308?

    I have a 22 year old Savage 110 tactical that shoots sub MOA... I see no reason to replace it. I'd like to put a new stock on it, and add a detachable mag well, so I could feed it from a external mag.
