Steve, I've been wondering. Are you able to write all of that stuff as business expenses?

My AR has a Vietnam-era Colt 4-power scope with BDC. It came off an M-16 with serial #4999, which is in my cousin's Class III collection. The new M-4's, in my opinion, are much nicer rifles.

started with these on my M&P 15T, S&W/Troy folding battle sights.

http://www.shootingtimes.com/longgun_reviews/STswmp15_122106C.jpg


switched to one of these (snagged it off of my 9mm carbine)

Bushnell trophy 1x32 red dot.
http://images.hayneedle.com/mgen/master:BUP434.jpg

Then switched to one of these:


Trijicon 2.5-10x56mm scope
http://www.samson-mfg.com/mm5/graphics/00000001/TR22-1.jpg


and now I'm back to the first one. The bushnell red-dot didn't give me enough accuracy at 100 yards, and the trijicon was too bulky for that gun...so now I'm keeping my eyes open for something nice and light with a variable power somewhere around 3-9x that still has good light gathering capabilities for twilight/night shooting.

Brand new to AR's but my MP-15 is running an Aimpoint Comp M2 in a GGG quick disconnect. BUIS is a MaTech rear and a M.I. front. Also got a GGG Troy-style rear with the Aimpoint that I never mounted, as it's not adjustable for elevation! The MaTech is one touch range optimized 200-600 yards for a 55-62 gr. Only thing I really like about the Troy-style rear BUIS is the 2 apertures and the ability to switch to a night sight aperture. Been thinking about getting one for the GGG and a tritium post for the front. Looking at Eotechs for my 870/1895 GS

I have one of those on a Hi-Point carbine. I find the dot is not very bright on sunny days. It's good enough for the Hi-Point.

On my AR, I have a Eotech 512. I consider battery life to be the down side of the Eotech. I run lithium batteries and one set will last me a season of what I consider moderate shooting. I would like to add a magnifier when I can afford to.

What's on top of your AR's

Dust!

Sorry couldn't resist. My AR is waiting for some more parts before the build is done.
