I have to say, something Ive noticed over my time in paintball and airsoft
paintballers shit on airsofters
airsofters shit on paintballers
but everyone shits on nerfkids[/QUOTE]
When I see airsofters and paintballers shitting on Nerf I start shitting on them for not owning real guns. 'But it doesn't do the same thing, I own it for completely different reasons!' Yeah, try taking a paintball gun into your cubicle, fuckstick.
I own firearms, airsoft, paintball, and Nerf alike. Life's too short to use your hobby as an excuse to wave your dick around.

I have a bad feeling in my stomach now.
I must admit i kind of like the M60 bipod.
Everything else is less than great.

Yeah, I would love to see that on an A1 as a throwback to the old AR LMG prototypes.

mmmMMMMmmmmmmm
If i ever see anyone selling an M60 bipod i will have to get it just so i can do this to the M16A1 that i will eventually own.

Oh. No idea what I was thinking of then.
[QUOTE=Apache249;41763960]What do you mean by "CORDURA series"? Are you implying that actual gear isn't made with Cordura?[/QUOTE]
I don't know what actual gear is made most of the time, i know the brits use cordura in their stuff, but no idea about other armies.

cordura is just the brand name of the nylon
Why would you put a Aimpoint on a Garand?

Because people are lazy and don't want to learn how to use real sights

Then you buy a gun that's not a Garand.

except quality ghost ring sights will always be more accurate than a red dot
We've come to the decision many times as a community that there's nothing wrong with putting something on a older firearm if it serves a functional purpose. Guns aren't sacred relics that you dare not defile just because they're old.

fuck me, this is cool tho
Or for people like me with astigmatism who have trouble focusing on certain things at certain distances like sights, whereas optics makes it much much easier.
[QUOTE=felix the cat;41817967]except quality ghost ring sights will always be more accurate than a red dot[/QUOTE]
What? Why? How? If a red dot is properly sighted in and not of awful quality it'll be just as accurate, but a ton easier to use.
I always thought irons are easier to adjust since they're adjustable using fingers and quickly adjustable :s
Leaf sights especially because of the way they're designed
Red dots simply are not as accurate as irons. Red dots are designed exclusively for fast target acquisition. You can shoot actually very accurately at 500+ yards with peep sights. Best you can do with a red dot is maybe 250 yards, and past 100 yards a 6 moa dot will almost completely obscure the target.
[editline]13th August 2013[/editline]
plus with only 1 point of reference like you have with a red dot there is much more room for error than there is with the 2 points you get with peep sights, especially considering the long sight radius you get on most rifles

Unless you're solely using your rifle for target shooting at 500+ yards and are an excellent marksman the mechanical precision of irons is often outweighed by their operational imprecision and capacity for user error.
You said 'quality ghost ring sights will [B]always[/B] be more accurate than a red dot' and that's factually incorrect. If you're a target-seeking robot that always lines up your sights with 100% precision then yes, your ghost rings will be more accurate. If you're a human being who isn't perfect or needs quick, accurate fire with minimal acquisition time, a red dot will deliver more consistent accuracy at typical engagement distances. It may not be mechanically superior but it is [I]functionally[/I] superior in that for most people in most practical situations it delivers better accuracy. Hence, you know, why people use red dot sights in the first place.

What? The single point of reference is a valid complaint against shotgun beads, not against optical sights that are specifically designed to eliminate parallax. You don't need points of reference with a parallax-free sight, that's the entire point.
Edit: I mean yeah I get what you're saying but it's common knowledge that red dot sights are [I]functionally[/I] superior to irons in most situations people use guns for, that's why people use red dot/holographic sights in the first place. If they were functionally inferior and [I]always[/I] less accurate there'd be no point whatsoever to using them. If someone's using a Garand for three-gun or something similar that requires them to put rounds on target at close range with minimal engagement time I'd say that a red dot would definitely be useful. I wouldn't do it myself but it's still a practical, if borderline sacreligious upgrade.
red dots are not truly parallax free. They are only parallax free at their "sweet spot" which on most sights is usually between 25 and 50 yards. And even so, just like with iron sights, there is still user-faulted parallax error even within that range, because the dot is centered to the sights center axis, not point of aim.

I mean you [I]can[/I] learn to be just as fast with ghost rings as you can with a red dot (just look at Jerry Miculek).
[QUOTE=felix the cat;41829779]I mean you [I]can[/I] learn to be just as fast with ghost rings as you can with a red dot (just look at Jerry Miculek).[/QUOTE]
And you [I]can[/I] learn to be just as fast with a pump-action shotgun as with a semi-auto but I wouldn't fault someone for choosing a semi-auto. The less room for user error the better. Most of us aren't Jerry Miculek.
The parallax error on most red dot sights (caveat: most [i]decent[/i] red dot sights) is inches at 50-100yds. Unless you are seriously good with irons, and 99% of us aren't, you're likely to have more error from imperfectly aligning your sights, especially if you're in a hurry. Seriously I don't see why this is in contention, it's just not true that irons are more practically accurate in all situations. If they were there'd be no reason to use red dots. They're not a good choice at long range but it's fair to say that they're functionally superior in a lot of cases, especially in a competition setting.
I dunno about all this science mumbo jumbo between irons and red dots but I usually think if Simo Häyha used irons to pwn commies then it's good enough for all
if i took the reflector gunsight off a P-51 and stuck it on my M4 would it work?
yeah just like waw
u guys are upset
calm down, sit down, have a bev together
lets be friends forever and talk about how much we want rare guns to be in airsoft
no need for contention children 0u0
