Do you plan on running optics?

Elevation preferred with fold capabilities, I plan on running a aim point pro in the carbine in the near future.

The Knight Armament is your best choice then.

I avoid the following. BSA, NSTAR, new TASCO, anything airsoft, anything that looks likes is a re-badged version of those 3. I also try to avoid MASSIVE variable power scopes the have HUGE bell diameters.

Reflex (red dot)
I use Trijicon, Aimpoint and Primary Arms
EOTECH is fine, I just personally don't like to use them.

I have a astigmatism so red dots have a halo effect and I prefer the softer 'point' of a Trijicon.

Primary Arms is a great for the money and is fine for most people who aren't going to war. They are great to keep around to use until you decide on a final optic.

Rifle Scopes
I mostly use 1-4x tactical unless shooting at 600-1000 yards and then they vary depending on rifle. Hunting rifles are mostly 1-4x or 3x9x

I use Trijicon, Leupold, Bushnell(Bausch & Lomb), Nikon, Redfield (very old and new), Old Weaver, 'other'

BUIS
Troy, Knight Armament, LMT, Magpul (usually I put Magpul on a new build until I settle on one of the other 3)

The vast majority of my shootings is 75 yards and under or 600-1000 yards. I shoot a variety of calibers but mostly stay in the .308/5.56 unless it very old military rifles and then its a mixed bag. I do shoot iron sights a lot at 600-1000 yards and it's probably my favorite thing to play around with using old military rifles from WWI and WWII.

My hunting varies and I choose the rifle based on what ever I haven't used in a while. The majority of my shots are under 200 yards. I have been using a 8.2" suppressed 300 BLK w/ 1-4x Trijicon scope lately and have been having great success with it.

Yesterday I took my Krinkov in 5.56x45 and set it up to run with the .30 cal AAC suppressor. Here is a quick video showing the difference is sound suppression and muzzle blast/flash.

Here is a gratuitous video....LOL

Ok im at a crossroads. Ive narrowed my next gun down to two options. Although I would LOVE a sig p226 or a new duck gun I dont have anythingnfor big game. I have my ar but its 5.56 I could take a deer as long as it wasnt a monster and I know friends that hunt doesnwith their ar's and have no problem. However i would prefer a larger caliber which brings me to my crossroad. Do I go remington 700 chambered in .300win mag (I figure this way I can hunt anything in north america) or do I do another ar build but an AR10!? I absolutely lobved building my current ar so it would kill two birds with one stone. I figure by the time both rifles are done they will be roughly the same amount of money. I would wanna do some work to the 700. So I guess the real question is.. do I want .308 or .300 win mag? A horse kick to the shoulder that will take down a bear or a lesser pony nudge that will be limited on the size.of the game? And dont give me the ol "any caliber gun can kill anything" my shot and luck is not good enough to hit a bear in the eye socket with a .22 and have it travel to the brain or spine.

[bonjing]

You could just get a different upper for your ar15, such as 300blk or some other caliber.

This could be the solution to my rats around the garage issue...



.22 caliber, nitrogen piston, 900-1200 fps velocity depending on pellet, with integral suppressor!

At the very least, it could be a lot of fun. I could sit out on the deck, smoke a cigar and a rat at the same time!
