  1. I have had two Primary Arms aimpoint micro clones and they both have worked well. My first one had a removeable base and it worked well, but I replaced it with a 4th gen with a fixed base so it could lower third cowitness with my Chaos front sight and LPA-BAR rear ghost ring. The fixed base model has survived for hundreds of full power slugs and buck, and countless birdshot without losing zero. I would highly recommend them. They do not have an auto shut off, but they aren't going to kill your wallet either. Mine are mounted most of the way back on a Chaos extended quad rail.
  2. I'm using an fully adjustable LPA BAR rear ghost ring with the factory Chaos front sights on a Chaos Extended Quad rail, and I love it.
  3. Bah, I'm a freak so I went with an LPA BAR rear ghost ring with the Chaos front sight co witnessed with a PrimaryArms aimpoint micro clone with a fixed base. The ghost ring rear doesn't obstruct the lower part of your vision like the HK sights do, giving you a better field of view and very, very fast targeting. It's not a cheap option though.
  4. I'm not, I shoot my ammo up and keep a pile on hand to cycle through for the times when I can't find any good deals. However, I feel it's still good form to offer advice for those folks who do feel the store for the upcoming (imaginary) apocalypse.
  5. C Products are steel, or at least the ones that I own are. If you want to store leaded AR magazines long term the best answer in my opinion is to use Magpul PMAGs. They have a clip on cover that relieves pressure on the feed lips and are designed to store indefinitely.
  6. For the saiga? 1000 rounds of Centurion 2 3/4 1.1 oz full power slugs and 350 rounds of 2 3/4 Federal 00 full power buck. There's also misc birdshot in various flavors and numbers. The slugs aren'd stored forever I cycle through them as I use them, but there's always about 1000 on hand. Same with the buck.
  7. I have had this issue, and after a lot of research on my gun I found that the spring alone wont solve the problem. I will explain my observations, but as the tolerences for saigas change I cannot mage guarantees for other folks. I am not a professional gunsmith. The BHO resides under the rail on which the bold carrier rides. Normally, when pressing the BHO the upward travel is stopped by the top of the BHO meeting the rail. However, in my case, as a result of slightly too much metal being removed from the right side of the hammer during the conversion process the BHO could tilt about 15 de
  8. The fixed base one will co witness the one with the removable base not so much. I own both. The reason for this is that the one with the removable base has the dot emitter at 6 o'clock which almost exactly covers up the front sight post. The fixed base optic moves the emitter to 4:30 or so to specifically fix this.
  9. I actually own the MAKO also (Which I may as well sell) and will say that it's not nearly as well made as the Enidine, nor does the recoil absorption seems as good. Also, it's plastic vs the Enidine being metal.
  10. That video above shows a stock that is ridiculously loose. My CTR stock in proper mil spec diameter is nowhere close to that loose. At the very least the stock in that video is of commercial diameter to be that loose. For me, I don't care, as this part works notably better than the Knoxx Spec Ops Stock on my Mossberg 500 by comparison. No comparison, the felt recoil is significantly less, and it feels less "bouncy" if that makes sense to those of you that have used the Knoxx. It's on a gun that is less than rattle free, and in a push button folding stock mechanism that isn't rock soli
  11. FYI the centurion slugs don't use powder as I normally define it. They have a primer and a small amount of what I can only describe as confetti infused with I assume is a form of gunpowder. It looks like small white/pink paper disks like you would get out of an undersized hole punch.
  12. For comparison, Commercial buffer tubes are slightly larger at 1.168 enidine: 1.138 Mil-Spec: 1.148 Commercial: 1.168
  13. Just for everyone's info, I busted out the digital calipers and the Enidine is 1.138 in diameter, whereas a milspec buffer tube should be 1.148. So yeah, it's off.
  14. I'll stand behind the centurion slugs too. They cycle just fine in my s-12, as a bonus they are short enough to load in all 3 of my MD-20 drums. They are 1.125 ounces at 1400fps. Also, the wad is physically attached to the base of the slug, so when you shoot paper the wad doesn't leave an extraneous hole in it. I couldn't ask for anything more for 37 or so cents a slug shipped, that's half what I pay for the next cheapest I could find. SGAmmo.com Centurion Slugs
