It is a used one that I want to play around with on the AR platform. Anyone else have one of these?

Edit: Well at least that specific version. There are CIV friendly versions (has to do with laser power) but at closed to $1500 i wouldn't buy one. Other more affordable options out there.

Well, hmmmm... I'm not sure I need one of these, but it would be interesting to have. The cost would be a factor, but I've read that you should spend as much on optics as you spent on the rifle.

Decisions, decisions.... do I run an EOTECH on my ARs or do I put specific optics on each rifle for specific purposes? My AR-10 I consider my 500yd+ rifle, so a good variable power scope would be best. My 6.8 SPC I consider a mid-range (200-500yd), so I could either go iron sights or a variable scope (or both). The 300 BLK (pistol & spare upper) I consider close quarter (house clearing and up to 150 yds, so laser or a good RDS would probably work best. Ugh.... too many choices....

Holly chit! The prices some people want for gun powder.

8lb jug of Hodgson H1000 is going for $1000 on gunbroker.com.

Yeah, everything is stupid expensive right now. I picked up some factory second bullets for my 6.8 from Midway. They don't look too bad to me....

and they were reasonably priced.
