Let's see the scopes...

[Dash Riprock]

Let's see those scopes and sights on the AR's.

I'm currently looking for a scope for my AR. I have a brand new EOTech 553, which is more "tech" than I need. When I bought it, for WAY too much, the sales guy told me it had night vison. It does not, but is compatible with some NV gear.

It's a cool sight though, no doubt, but I'm kind of wondering about a scope now. Maybe one I can use with the EO. Any suggestions?

this here is the unit that I use when I go out to the 500yrd. High Power practice matches and I recently installed this American Defense Recon-X-1 mount

Note:
This is a copy of my last range target ‘record sheet’ on a 500yrds range that I shoot at once in awhile from the prone position using this setup. The black area on the target used on this range is 24 inches in diameter; as you can see from my ‘record sheet’ the 6 and 7 ring are not shaded as they should be! that is because I downloaded this record-sheet from the web; I was able to keep the majority of all of my rounds within the X-8 ring using factory ‘red box’ Black Hill’s 55gr FMJ. The (4) rounds that you see in the lower section of this target were some handloads that a friend wanted me to try out while I was shooting at the High-Power Match; I got them on paper but as you can see they fell on the target just a little low.

and finally here are the details on the Rifle:

this unit was built by: Dedicated Technology's Custom Guns (http://www.dtechsuperstore.com/mili%20Guns.htm)

I guarantee my "Ultramatch" rifles to shoot sub-MOA groups. These upper receivers are built differently than any upper available from any of the AR manufacturers. Over the past 10 + years I have been building and selling uppers, I have found, and incorporated, many innovations into my building procedure. Each receiver is "detailed" and squared in my lathe prior to assembly.

the upper Mike built for me is on an Olympic Arms bull barrel, it’s a 1:8 broach-cut Stainless Ultra-Match barrel with his integral compensator installed ... the lower is an Olympic Arms brand® w/ semi-custom trigger job … it has a very crisp pull for a factory single-stage trigger group assembly... I do have a RRA National Match on hand and someday I’d like to get it installed but haven’t yet found the time to so.
