lol...I have 2 pellet guns and a sling shot by the back door.



Pffft...assuming you mean an atlatl, Bud's is just behind the curve. New production is readily available.

Shop | Thunderbird Atlatl

Even Amazon carries ammo for them...https://www.amazon.com/Three-Five-F...coding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=D7VNBH27Z94FKWY5FHFC

Yippeee! I’m getting in front of the curve finally. Anyone know if there’s an Eotech mount for an Atlatl?

While on the range trip earlier today, I realized just how far we have come in sidearms. With a revolver, you are reaching for speed-loaders twice in the same round count as a single Phantom mag will run. When doing double taps, you run out of ammo pretty quickly. Like really quickly.

When testing the 10 round 1911 mags, it was the first time I’ve ever felt the luxury of ample ammo with a 1911.

Still better than an atlatl! LOL

Double taps could be tough with that one

What does it say about me that I wouldn't mind going to see Neil Diamond, or Dave Matthews?

The only concerts I have seen with my wife are Billy Joel, and Billy Joel with Elton John.

...mandatory man-card turn in...

It was a good run.

You won't go wrong with Leupold.

I would offer this from a fellow INGO'r: STRIKE EAGLE 1-6X24 RIFLESCOPE

The only visible diff. is the turrets.

Leupold is noticeably lighter and smaller. The 1-8 Strike Eagle is slightly smaller than the 1-6 but $100 more.

Both would work for her needs. If she is putting it on her new rifle.

I concur.

I suggest to Sarah doing some in-store viewing. I think that glass quality is somewhat subjective along with reticles. The SE has a busy reticle IMHO - though I have three and won't hesitate to buy another.

Maybe Spiceyweiner will stop in. He's the "bang for buck" king of optics.

I want to say it was a Burris? He goes through them fast - sometimes they blur together. That and I am old and forget details.

Thats why I asked in that text if it was a 586.....

I had to go back and look to see what I still have.

Burris RT-6
https://www.midwayusa.com/product/898760/burris-rt6-rifle-scope-30mm-tube-1-6x-24mm-illuminated-ballistic-ar-reticle-matte

Watch for sales on them, they run sub $300 occasionally. Good glass and reticle. Throw lever that's indexable.

If you read reviews/comparisons of them online, most people prefer them over the Strike Eagles.

I have never seen the Lepold, but between these two i would take the Strike Eagle every time for two reasons.
The SE is a true 1x on the low end while the L is a 1.5x at the low end. This makes a huge difference to me if I'm doing "close in work" like sweeping the house after hearing a bump in the dark. The true 1x allows you to keep both eyes open and in play while looking through the scope. The 1.5x makes what one eye sees 1.5 times the size of what the other eye sees and makes it difficult to stay focused in this scenario and slows me down. If there is no potential for the scope to ever be used this way it makes no difference at all.

My other problem with the L is that the lighted center dot size is 1 mil dot or 3.6" at 100 yards (and will cover 7.2" at 200 yds) while the SE's crosshairs only covers 0.5" at 100 yds.

While this won't make much of a difference shooting steel targets over ~12" diameter it will make it more difficult to shoot tight groups on paper and impossible to hit a golf ball or lollipop (I hear that's a thing) at 100 yds which sort of makes the 1 MOA BA Hansen barrel I think you got, a waste.

Just my 2 cents but those are my thoughts.

There are several options out there to consider.
