Walmart has a cool scope for like forty bucks.

Hey man, I try to help a brotha when I can..........I got a NICE 4X scope I took off my kids Daisy BB gun, and just cause I'm a stand up guy you can have it for free.

Nice! I love my RRA.

Look carefully at the top of the wall on the left side. Notice it's rounded? I agree it is a teaser, I saw what the pic was, then the "lake", and had to re focus to see the wall again

I guess I'll give it another look, but I think it might be a lost cause.

SWEET!

I was thinking about a light but they are expensive too. Duct tape and a yellow plastic flashlight FTW.

Seriously, Surefire is expensive. Anything more reasonable?

What are you looking to spend on a light? I got a Surfire 6P with a LED bulb ($100) that puts out 220-240 L hanging on my RRA and it worked so good I bought another to carry in my pocket as a back up light.

That's reasonable. RRA has $500 lights and that's not in my budget. Granted, I haven't really looked, but I want something under $200 with a pressure switch.

 

[lawrra]

Ever thought of a pistol light? They're small and you don't need a pressure switch or an extra mount.

Like a TLR?

You should put one of these on it I had one a 22-250 for yote hunting...could light up a set of yote eyes a few hundred yards out.

You're full of great ideas.

I think I'm gonna order four more, one for each of my kids.

Surefire G2 <$40.00

1" scope rings from Wally world <$10.00

Best bang for your buck IMO.

iTac TDL1 Tactical Defense Light

I think I might get this...

Yep. I have a TLR-3 that I've put on my AR before. It's lightweight and can be removed or mounted quickly.

Awesome

Since today is the first day I've actually seriously considered an AR, I haven't really put a lot of thought into it. I'm setting up for HD but I've got 60-90 days to think about it. I really like the grip mounted though. Two for one...

 

[1032JBT]

Rookie you are close enough to me that we could set something up and you could come take a look at my set up to see if you like it. I'm in N/W Noblesville could either meet you somewhere in between or whatever works best.

Keep it as light as possible.

 

[Rookie]

That would be nice. I have to make a trip to Indy next week to have dinner with my parents who are traveling through to go see my brother. I'll find out which day and get with you.

Btw, know of anywhere reasonable that's close to 70 and 31?

I agree. The local gun shop had one that I looked at and it seems heavier than it should. They had a DPMS that was much lighter. Not sure why...

I try not to go south of 96th street unless I have too. Let me know which day and we can set something up. I work on Wed and Thur next week 5p-5a and as long as we aren't too busy I can meet you in Fishers or if it's another day we can work something else out too.
