Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Hollywood_Shooter: Yeah -- it was all the anticipation -- and being in 'hand-on-switch/standing-by mode' for 6 hours sucked. It's probably more exhausting to be on point the whole time having to look good in case any of the bosses came by than it is to just be let loose to do my thing. I rather be working than sitting around trying to LOOK LIKE I'm working.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Hollywood_Shooter: I thought I didn't, as I never owned one. But then last week I tried my buds (same model I bought -- it's a relatively new release from Vortex, made in CHI-NA  but surprisingly clear for $275) and changed my mind as my (damn these) eyes are getting older. I can still hit an ipsic @ 300y with the T1, but I really can't tell where on the IPSC I'm hitting. With the 3x, it's like you're there. I've got so many (first world problems) AR's that I figured I'd try it on the couple that have 1x MRDS's.Yeah I hear ya. Past 50 yards my eyes start to struggle. So I got a magnifier. It helped immensely. Plus it fixes my astigmatism issue with RDs. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Hollywood_Shooter: Seriously? Dude. I'm sorry. I wouldn't have been making jokes if I knew that. Dude. You'll never hear better cancer jokes than in an oncologist's waiting room. Hell, one of my doctors- he pointed at my wife and said "you're married, right? to her?" "Well, yeah." "Okay, good," he said, pretending to wipe sweat off his forehead. "At this point, it's a good thing you're not gay." |

I had my 1st 2 years ago, the prep or procedure wasn't bad at all. I woke up a few minutes in, and they moved the monitor over so I could watch what was happening. I remember joking around with the doc and nurse there, but apparently I was hilarious in the post-op area, though I don't remember much of that ?? |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Hollywood_Shooter: OK - I'm too lazy to go roll this into GD, so you all will have to deal. I have a question for the Tier One Operators who Operate Operationally who are here among us. I just got a Vortex 3x magnifier to run behind my T1. Never had a magnifier before. I shoot right hand strong side. Is it better to have the magnifier flip to the left or the right? Having it flip out of view to the left and into view to the right would seem more natural of an operation to perform with my (left) off-hand. -BUT- if I'm running (literally) and slung, with the magnifier to the left, wouldn't it be banging into your chest rig when it's flipped out of view to the left and you're all cinched up? Or am I over thinking it? ...and don't tell me to screw it together, mount it, and find out. I'm too tired to mount it twice. |
