Some good looking steel there. What optic is on the AR, is it a 1-4x Nikon?
That's a Leupold Varix III 1.5-5. It's a great scope for 100-400yds. I might send it back to Leupold for a mil dot reticle. I picked up a Larue quick release mount that I hope to be able to use to swap out a scope and a red dot.
Been thinking of something along the lines like that for my GT AR or GT PARA FAL. I have a Aimpoint on it now, can switch between the Para and the AR and still be dead on nuts between the two rifles, but I hate swapping back and forth. Thanks on the info. BTW, is it illuminated?
Jeff, I have a Trijicon TR21R in a LaRue LT139 on one of my AR's, and a Trijicon TR24G in a LaRue LT104 on another. Both rifles have fixed front sights, and Troy rear BUIS.
The TR24G is an AWESOME 1-4x optic that does not require batteries, and uses BAC (fiberoptic) ambient light to "increase" the reticule's brightness.
The TR21R is "OKAY" at 1.25-4x, but the red reticule is more difficult for me to see (same technology otherwise).
I'd wholeheartedly give my recommendation for the TR24G in a LaRue LT104 quick detach mount. Its the best of all worlds...1x for CQB, no batteries, and up to 4x for distance.
