| Thought some of you might get a kick out of this. I was talking to an Aimpoint Rep earlier this week. I have a Comp M4s and noticed that there is a little play in the knob that clicks the Red dot intensity up and down. I asked the rep what the purpose of the play in the knob is, he stated that it was intentionally designed that way for durability. He stated that if needed be, you could actually pull you Aimpoint off your rifle and use the click knob as a hammer, griping the optic with your hand! Don't know if I will ever be in that situation, but it's good to know that Aimpoint designed the optic to be rugged as hell. |
| I once had the service manager tell me that the reason my Jeep pulled to the right was a safety feature that Chrysler put into all of them. That way, if you fell asleep at the wheel, you wouldn't drift into oncoming traffic causing an accident, you would go into the zipper strip on the edge and it would wake you up. That he said it with such confidence made me wonder how many people he had fooled with that. After I laughed, they realigned the steering. A hammer? |

Now, I don't know exactly what you could hammer, but he surely said a hammer. I did check other Comp M4's though and they all had the same amount of play. |
