Or he's just really that dumb. FWIW though, the only time I've heard of the man coming for LAMs is NCIS showing up on a dudes doorstep after he bought an LA-5 on ebay. (They took it from him, no charges) Same dude has bought countless PEQ-15s 16s and LA-5s since then and been fine though. I guess it just depends if you're willing to tango, and they seem to be more interested in the higher powered units such as the LA-5 series. My PEQ is also now gone tho because I traded my PVS 14 for that ACOG/RMR

https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/310340/LRM_EXPORT_20180427_181524-527684.JPG Got out to the range yesterday day to sight the Acog in. Still have to check the docter. Had some decent 100yd groups both slow and fast fire. 
A lot of the parts I've I've gotten towards clone builds have been from the '04 to '07 time frame. All of my builds (m4/mk18) tend to stay within that timeframe with a few exceptions. |

Too bad the propagation of free float rails killed off this little guy- it's still a viable option for putting a white light out a little further and freeing up space for your hand or other rail attached devices, for guys that can't permanently modify issued rifles. |

So I have a question is it acceptable to use a ta31rco in a block 1/1.5 build rather than a TA01NSN? I was looking at pics of various special forces groups and some had rco’s instead of the TA01NSN.

You can see the bright amber dot on my front post. its not the best pic so don't judge the brightness of the dot. This one is very old and the tritium is pretty much burnt out but, the fiber optic is in excellent condition.

I'm gonna say the dot isn't bad at all and with the accompanying polarizing filter, it becomes really visible. The dot in mine is a 4.5 or 6.5 moa in amber.

Full sun is definitely an issue. When I first got one I couldn't find the reticle because I was pointing it at the light source. I believe full sun is what the polarizer was designed to counter. I've made decent 100yd shots on an 8" plate with mine. The dot is super crisp. Definitely shoot with it before you decide. The no batteries aspect is what really draws me towards this as a reflex option. I have the ta31-Ecos which has the same reticle as the ta01. Sighted mine in yesterday.
