Trying to get an MSR now. Doubt it will happen, momma is starting t put her foot down on some of my purchases.

HDMR, had the S&Bs so didn't "need" a HDMR, though they are nice and a fine alternative to some of the more pricey scopes out there. I was considering changing out the older PII for a HDMR though.

BTDT, it iwll slip over time, we made spacers to stop slippage, not good for adjustments on teh fly for an odd position adjustment.

Overall Cadex wins, cost is a factor, but the abilities of the stock puts it over the top and in a while the price will come down as all new and shiny things do.
Great info, thank you.

I picked up the new Bushnell ERS, it's a great scope. I did a short overview of it here.

Nope. Is it not obvious by the curvature of the magazine?

This is not generally the AK-74. This is Saiga-MK 7.62x39. Of course, you are unlikely to follow the development of my hobby throughout the network, with bated breath. Sorry, I had to understand it. But it shows in the picture, anyway.

I was not trying to achieve similarities with existing in-service models. It so happened that the Saiga-MK produced in the AK-74 form-factor. Rather it is civil version of 7.62x39 AK-103. My building does not have a preliminary plan and is designed to be a comfortable rifle. Army ammunition is illegal for civilians here, by the way.

About setup:
- EOTech EXPS 3-0 (recent purchase);
- Fort gas tube (ukrainian UltiMAK analogue);
- FAB Defence handguard;
- Noname front handle;
- Hogue pistol grip;
- SVDS buttstock with turnable cheek;
- Finnish KRS silencer;
- RPK rear sight with windage adjustments;
It is too early to talk about cowitness with these irons or with this scope. Still a lot to buy. Like TWS dog leg and Magpul back up sights… The question of what to do with the existing front sight. Hemorrhoids, in a word.
But first, I have to convince myself in need of this cowitness at all, given the quick-detachable EOTech.
Another scope? Mayby later. I do not so much need this cowitness.

In passport weapon accuracy is specified like 138 mm at 100 m.
Shooting this rifle “from box” at 100 meters with open sight showed better accuracy in 87 mm. And 52 mm with POSP optics.
I tried to gather a group with this weapon a couple of times, but it's a hopeless task. Kalash needed to hit a growth or machine-gun-crew targets at distances up to 400 meters, and not for the gathering of groups. Strange that I explain it to you.
Much more interesting dynamic shooting iron gongs at ranges of 50-100 meters for me. I'm saving a lot of time so, getting mainly shooting instead of walking hither and thither.

Here's a quick picture of my new rifle.

Actually going to be able to go out and shoot it Sunday

McRees Precision G5 TMAG Folding stock
Leupold Mark 4 6.5-20
Badger Ordnance 20 moa rail
Badger Ordnance Rings

I'll be switching over to a HDMR after it comes in I'm borrowing the scope at this time.

I don't know if something is lost in translation across Vodka and open sea, but did you just respond with >1 smart ass comments to Frostfire's previous post?

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, as you can probably drop me with only a paperclip and a dried piece of sturgeon.

I'm missing something here myself. As in - why are you calling out SpNkid? That's ADMIN/MOD/QP territory. If FF takes offense, he's a valued guest and more than capable of fending for himself. Personally, I thought SpNkid's response was well within the bounds of propriety - and a bit funny too (largely because FF missed an obvious visual clue that I know he is knowledgeable enough to pick up on). Maybe because I understand the difficulties of communicating in a foreign language. So please stay in your lane or explain yourself more clearly when you wander out of it. Otherwise an intervention is called for - and nobody wants to have to use a paperclip to hang a dried piece of sturgeon around anyone's neck. It's too hard to get the smell off your hands afterwards.

For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.

Peace, bro!
Do not bring democracy to me for this, please! Especially since you're not Frostfire's daddy. (This is to you for vodka, dude)
Just a couple of kindly jokes, this is normal in a conversation between balanced men.
To maintain a chat in a humorous form.

guilty as charged

Much like distracting injury in trauma, I saw the muzzle device, got tunnel vision, and immediately called it a 74 w/ no second thought
