So You Want to Buy an AR15... Tax Day 2023 Edition

Best optic for most ARs is a quality LPVO. There are a lot of benefits close in to a RDS.

LPVO are a gay fad with 2A youtubers.

Would take an ACOG 4x32 or Eotech over one any day of the week.

Agreed that magpul bipod isn’t amazing but it’s light.

I'm not watching a 30 minute review to figure out what that thing costs to make that determination. If you want to spend around 1800 on an AR, get an ADM. If you want more than what the ADM offers, buy a KAC.

Cool. One of the best aspects of the AR is that you can set it up to be what works bestfor you. Most end-users will have a different experience, however.

So if Biden decides to take your AR -15’s won’t every American just buy a 7.62 AK like Rajc has?

Or will they do the honourable thing and die defending there constitutional right?

Really like my AR15, it’s very accurate and works great and is easy to use, recoil is like nothing, shoots so easy. 30 round mags it’s like a machine, actually it is a machine of sorts. Not that expensive either. Gun mags ammo and optics prolly total $1,100. Boom perfect home defense tool.

And it’s fun to shoot!

Haha what are they gonna do, go door to door? “Hello sir we need your gun lol”

Just exactly how would they go about enforcing something like that? Also, they are NEVER going to ban AR15’s, they’re only gonna talk about it.

The majority of people will turn them in. Look how fast these cucks went out to register their AR pistols for mUh fReE sBr!!!

I think that most of the people registering them are people who were planning on doing so anyway.

I'd be interested in knowing how many were registered

Between that and the T2, there’s nothing better for a non-dmr weapon.

Imagine dealing with parallax, cheek position and eye relief.

Plus the bottom tick of the ring on EOTech are dead nuts on target 7 yards and in for close quarters. Perfect reference for BSR

Yeah. Do you use single dot reticle too? I don’t like the two or three dot for the reason you said. The tickmark is perf.

It’s by and far my favorite optic of all time.

Not really an issue on a scope with good eye relief, 1xFOV, and an illuminated reticle.

Try it. They’re popular af and in service. Huge following too. Not trying to chit on them for everyone and OP isn’t an emotional ****get so he replied like a normal adult who isn’t a liberal.

They just suck dink for me. The weaknesses of them outweigh their “versatility” but personal preference.

Also, riser on an eotech??? How big are your cheeks bro? Do you have QD on it?

I had an opportunity to watch the video on desktop at 2x speed and look up the rifle. It appears to have many, many proprietary parts, and costs $2800. Personally, I'd skip it and get a Knight's Armament SR15 at that price and throw a Kahles K18i on it if you're in that bracket.
