Not a great picture; I was taking this quickly to show a buddy something. But, I had it on hand so....

That is my DSA STG-58 with a DSA rail, SAW grip and top cover. Optic is a Meopta K-dot in Badger rings. I was going for something of a "DM" setup with this rifle. The forward rail actually tensions the barrel a bit resulting in less POI shift with the suppressor. I love the setup a lot.

stone76245 Joined Mar 2009 Posts 161 EE 100% (174) AR, USA	Posted: 3/15/2010 9:28:07 PM EDT [#46] I got a Tasco World Class 1.5-4.5x32 just to see if I would like a scope FAL. The scope was clear, clear enough to see .30cal holes at a 100yds. The scope sits in Warne high QD rings. Shoots 1.5-2.0MOA, I posted a range report earlier today.
