I am hoping Rainman threw it in there to stir the pot...which he is one to do on occasion.

Speaking of uniforms Rainman...how about those new Vikes unis? What is with the "collar"? They look pretty stupid and I wish they would go back to the old school unis. Sorry to get off track for this thread.

An AR-15 was used in the shooting in Co yesterday. Will be really interesting to see what happens in regards to a AWB.

I have heard nothing but good things about RRA which is why I went with them. I did look at the ones you mentioned and when (not if!) I get another AR, I am going to go more high end. Anyway, as far as optics goes I think having something is better than nothing. At least a 1x RDS/HWS of some sort. Like I stated, primary use is going to be home defense, SHTF, type stuff, I want to be set-up primarily for that...but I will probably never use it in that scenario. When I do pick up another AR down the road, then I can have one built for HD and another built for mid-range to long range shooting. For now I plan on taking it to the range and shooting with the irons and RDS 0-100 as much as possible. I think it would be fun however to shoot beyond that which is why I posed the original question, before I drop a lot of coin, I want to be informed. I should probably mention that my vision is shit, I don't know if that has any bearing on the answer. I am thinking right now I will probably just go with a RDS and work up from there. I can always sell it if I want to upgrade to something different (ACOG, 1-4, etc). Any further advice is appreciated.

What would you suggest?...for future reference

Dudes, Searching through 144 pages is rough...just need some quick well-thought out (ha!) advice. Getting into the AR world, ordered my first RRA Elite Comp last month. After days of exhaustive research, I am still at a loss as to what optics to put on. I did a bunch of research at AR15.com, but I thought I would post here to get some input. Wondering if I should go the EoTech and 3x Mag route or should I go with an ACOG that has a RMR piggybacked or even a RMR or Micro T1 mounted offset? Primary use will be for the apocalypse/home defense, but I am guessing that isn't going to happen anytime soon so I will be shooting a bit at the range. 0-100 will be fun with a RDS/HWS, but I would also like to be able to shoot a bit further using some type of scope. Thoughts? Thanks fellas.

So I was watching "Great Planes",the non-Max Moga version, and the episode was about the B-1. Anyway, they had a quick clip in there of a minute-man being loaded into the back of a C-5. Apparently there was a plan to launch that sucker out of the back of the Galaxy. While it never came to be, that is still pretty bad ass. Any old C-5 dudes have any experience/stories behind this?

Now you're just being hurtful. Not even the gays would accept Navs. We breed from within.

Has potential and applies on this forum...Those guys are dorks but I am glad they are on our side.From the Air Force fish wrap, there are a "small" number of dudes who no longer want to fly the Raptor. https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/2012/04/air-force-small-number-pilots-wary-of-flying-f-22-043012/I would think that transferring out of 130s will be nearly impossible. Unless there is a need, the AF probably won't pay for you to go through another schoolhouse. You could probably transfer within the 130 community to Gunships or Talons (or any of the other Herc airframes), I am guessing that is a lot easier to do. Gunships and Talons are badass missions, just as good as B-1s or 15Es, just my opinion though. CH would probably have a better idea on this subject.I did, I'm good for one or two quips a day. Feel free to use and insert any runway as you see fit.
