My initial take away is Delta used duct tape and now the entire Arfcom forum can be reduced to “is my _____ good to go over using duct tape?”

Period correct tape in the EE.

Has anyone ever shot a Son Tay raider style carbine* at a match or even on benchmark timed drills?

* I.E., essentially a carry handle mounted Singlepoint , 2 position buttstock and milspec trigger.

I'm curious about the performance delta between that and a state-of-the-art optic/stock/trigger set up at close range..

Where specifically in the EE? I checked a couple sub sections but the search function sucks.

I suspect that he was making a gag about "period correct duct tape" becoming a collectible commodity thanks to this "Delta carbine" making an appearance on FW.  Based on judging the lengths folks will go to in hunting down authentic small parts, knick knacks, and obsessing over period correct finishes for our retro tribute guns.

Good news is that duct tape and gaffer's tape hasn't discernibly changed since they came in the market.

What I would like to see is the reappearance of South-East Asia ERDL pattern camo rolls of vinyl electricians tape.  My dad's USAF flight helmet was completely covered with it so that no white plastic was visible.

My bad.  Give me about an hour to hit up the Home Depot and I’ll find that listing.  I think it was about $50 a foot.  Sound good?

Lol I gotcha.

Neat video. It's pretty cool how night vision tech has advanced in the last 40 years.
