Still in the land of cotton.





I've been keeping an eye out for a boosted/heavily modified (408, maybe even LS7) replacement for mine, so I've seen pretty much every one that's currently for sale.

The rifle does feel heavier with it than without it, but by itself, it doesn't seem that heavy. The eye relief could be better, but I can live with it.

You're making me want to pick up a Harris for my B2. Shits already 15 lbs lol.

Aren't you supposed to be coming here for something or am I imagining shit again? If so where to?

And dem Mickey Thompsons. I vote LS7. I miss my fucking Camaro man. Wish I never totaled that thing.

Glad I could help. I've tried it with an Aimpoint ML3 and T1 as well, and it worked great with them too. Overall, I'd reccomend them over any other magnifier.

I had a g22 behind an early xps and it was ok, but nothing special. That last sentence makes me feel better though.

I skipped the 3x mag. Eotech is great glass and solid, but the eye relief is meh, and the weight penalty is not worth the gain imho.

I know everything is a compromise, and I'm sure for someone's shooting needs it's the best option vs ACOG or Elcan. For what I do on a static range, 3Gun, and hunting, it just didn't make sense in any of those. I sold mine.

To me, that's where the QD mount of the g33 comes in.



An ELCAN is just too spendy right now and I recently sold a ta01nsn as I found myself not "needing" the magnification for ~60% of my range time(100yds and in) with the blockII.

Nice, slick, and simple. Can't beat that.

Do you have a buis for it or are you choosing not to use one since you have the acog? Can't say I disagree if choosing not to use one.

Thanks.  I go quick 'n' dirty (that's what she said).  I think it was a grand total of about 15-20 minutes laying paint, and most of that was waiting for tackyness to wear off on the base layer so i could do the net-sprays.

I have them on mine, but that's because I already have them. If I didn't already have them, I'd probably skip putting one on too so I could mount the acog a bit further back. In a perfect world, an offset Aimpoint micro would be my buis.

Actually, not sure on it....probably is Chincrap metal but, it does hold a nice edge for a critter sticker..."400 series stainless" blade and the handle is G10....the .40 Shield came as a bonus with the purchase of the blade for free.

          2 out of 3 with the Stickman.....not bad!
