why does this guy have a sight on the side rail of his gun?
why does this guy have a sight on the side rail of his gun?
To distract people from talking about how ridiculous his glasses look?

It's probably more comfortable for him with it on the side.

i was told during desert combat the reason why we are told to be ready to equip our bayonets was for the need to keep our barrels from getting buried in the sand in the inside of any trenches that might need to be cleared

I guess that sort of proves insurgents other than harassment snipers can't aim so they use bombs.FatherTed wrote:

Nothing in there said they couldn't aim. How would you feel if you were told for years that these white devils were cowards who lacked courage. Then these same white devils charged you with bayonets while yelling at the top of their lungs, i would probably shit my pants.The bayonet charge appeared to succeed for three main reasons. First, the attack was the first of its kind in that region and captured the element of surprise. Second, enemy fighters probably believed jihadist propaganda stating that coalition troops were cowards unwilling to fight in close combat, further enhancing the element of surprise. Third, the strict discipline of the British troops overwhelmed the ability of the militia fighters to organize a cohesive counteraction.

I think the 3rd factor probably meant the most. I would assume training amongst an official military far surpasses the training for an insurgent group.UnkleRukus wrote:

Because the scope is for distance aiming I'd guess. It's a bitch to acquire close targets with a scope.Trotskygrad wrote:

He has a big-ass scope on top, and would likely use the EOTech for close targets. If you watch 3-gun competitors in the US, they have offset red-dots quite often.
IMO, he should pick one and stick with it. That AR-15/M4 probably weighs in at clost to 10lb and is now very bulky for a CQB environment.

In a Combat Environment a Scope past 4x power on a .223 platform is fucking pointless.
He's got an Eotech, Laser Sight, atleast a 3x9 optic. Fancy SpecOps Glasses, New Vest, Gay Gloves. Definitely a gear queer.

This thread has boiled down to nitpicking some german guy and his gay barbie toy.
Another topic, anyone hear about the airforce potentially converting 747s to be flying cruise missile carriers? My bro was telling me about this today and I'm kinda skeptikal.
