    Medium power variable optic for RECCE style rifle.

    I'm looking into replacing the 1-8 LVPO that I have on one of my AR's, and I am thinking a lighter weight (sub 20 oz if possible) variable with a low end of 2-4 and a high end of 10-15 with an offset micro red dot might be the perfect solution. I would prefer for the optic to be first focal...

    So I'm having a serious first world problem here and would like your help making a decision. I am currently considering building out one of my remaining AR lowers as a 18-20" 6mm ARC to use as a target/hunting rifle. This seems like a great idea to me as I prefer the ergonomics of the AR-15...

    Just like the title says which one is the better belt? The 5.11 Tactical Trainer or the Wilderness Tactical 1 1/2" 5 Stitch Instructor belt. They are both about the same price so that's a wash. They seem to both be well made and stiff but the local stores that carry them carry one or the other...
