Curious. I got the Surefire flash hider and a new BCM upper (upper is just on an SBRed lower at the moment), need to have them put together and will start looking for a forend next month... gotta quit buying those frickin Ithaca shotguns

Awesome pic. How long will it be before guys start taking power tools to the range as a part of their load-out? I'm sure airsofters are already doing it. I wonder if I can send my DeWalt off to get multicam hydro-dipped? |

Ive noticed since summer my right eye getting blurry when trying to focus or with both eye's open with my eotech(s) . I play with my acog or mueller and it's better for me. ( fuckin age catching up to me ) Havent dicked with a Aimpoint ( 7yr's ) or T1 or H1 so It may just be the eotech's that bother my eye(s) . Best I go one of these day's to the eye doctor

There are a few scattered pics around of AFSOC rifles sporting DD Omega 7 rails with Surefire flash hiders and Aimpoint T1s. However, most of the pics posted of AFSOC people show a basic standard M4 in Block 1 or 1.5 configuration. There doesn't seem to be (yet) a clearly defined AFSOC variant. |

I've seen pics of JTAC/TACP rifles with black Elcan Specter DRs and KAC RAS. In fact, most AFSOC rifles I've seen are pretty basic m4 type configurations (RAS, Eotech, etc.).
