[ARCHIVED THREAD] - BSA RD30 on an AR

Posted: 7/21/2008 8:12:19 PM EDT

Just curious. I'm looking into getting a BSA RD30 for a future AR I'm getting. My question is, can these be mounted to a carry handle, do I need anything to attach it other than what it comes with? Also, all I'm going to do is some plinking with my ar, so is this a decent scope for fun shooting? Thats all I want with it. ANy feed back would be awesome!

You will need an carry handle mount before you can put that on your gun. Im sure it will be fine for a fun optic. The mount may need to be tightened occasionally, it wont be very weather or fog proof and it may not hold the best zero over time. But for fun, it will shoot fine.

I second this.

As long as all you want is the "red dot experience", a BSA will probably be fine.

When you mount it, be sure to use loctite so it doesn't loosen up over time.

Other than that, GO SHOOT AND HAVE FUN!
