So why TA33 specifically, as opposed to a TA31? bigger eye box, lighter I still like the ta31 for its larger field of view though enlighten me. I'm guessing that means the size of the rear lens? Don't know enough about higher end optics to know what half those damn numbers mean.

I have a 26S on my SBR. It is essentially a batteryless red dot. I would love to see Trijicon to just do a zero power ACOG.

Enough about optics, TA33 settles that. I need a handgun, for carry/IDPA duties. G19 or G17?

Is a TA-31 w/RMR dumb on a 11" SBR? Otherwise it would be a 552 EoTech

So is anyone else thinking of building a CWAR to go with their CWW trigger? Would a lightweight receiver still be spec?

So is anyone else thinking of building a CWAR to go with their CWW trigger? Would a lightweight receiver still be spec? View Quote My SSA-E already went into the rifle that I had at CWW, but I am considering building a CWAR and then blaspheming on the optic. I have a three power magnifier on my other AR, and I'd prefer to have 4 and no batteries. The question comes down to $. Put money into new AR, or M1A. For those in this thread, I'm sure it's a simple decision, but I'm a fool for a full length M1A with irons Plus California does a good job in ruining any benefit that an AR would provide with the bullet button |

Unless you train yourself to use the "Bindon Aiming Concept" without explicitly thinking about it, it could become more trouble than it's worth. "Cola Training" taught me that while the Primary Arms magnifier works to get the job done at a good price, it can be a bit finicky. Finicky sucks when you're shooting stuff while sucking air.
