R8 my build went to the range today pic was from yesterday sight was from big 5 and turned out to be shit
Anyone know some good optics that aren't 500 fucking dollars
I don't want a scope for this this is a mid range type setup, sight is a bariska red dot it didn't last 10 rounds, won't hold a zero and after those 10 shots you can't bring the reticle even into the sight picture

Bi-pod is for shits and giggles and for my extremely tacticool tubular operator status

I don't even know where to start.

It looks like shit.
Because it has shit you don't need.

Save up, buy a nice optic.
Come back when you have as much into the optic as you do the gun. Then you will have a quality optic (Right about $600 from the looks of that shit stain)
>>
>>29252422
its ugly
>>
>>29252491
500 actually friend
Stock came with the gun it is kinda eh
I just can't bring myself to pay 500 to buy an optic, I'm more in the 100-200 dollar end
>>
>>29252484
>>29252501
What's so bad about it?
I think it looks burty good especially with out the bipod
>>
>>29252422
>>29252491 (continuation)
#1- unfuck your stock. If you like magpul so much, get their buttstock. It's better.
#2 Get rid of the bipod. If you aren't using it, it shouldn't be on the rifle.
$3- Do not cheap out on an optic. You've already seen how cheap optics work. Buy something that is made by a reputable company, like Aimpoint, or Trijicon.
#4 How far is medium range? 100-400 yards? 500 yards? I have heard medium range be taken all the way out to 750 yards before. Do you want something that can perform at this distance, or are you using "medium" range to keep yourself away from glass because of your preconceived notions about it?
>>
>>29252422
Remove bipod
remove shit optic
remove stock

Get a CTR stock and MOE+ grip

Get a EOTech 512 or Aimpoint PRO.
>>
>>29252556
your stock and optic are shit, it looks like you dont have a fa in but it might just be the shit photo. im not a fan of that handguard but its not total shit
>>
>>29252623
and remove bipod
>>
>>29252578
I have nothing wrong with scopes I will shot out to 1000 yards just not with this gun. I'm going for somewhere between 100 to 300 yards what are some decent optics for a decent price I'm never going to buy some 50 buck special again
The bipod is off 90 percent of the time it's on when storing and if I want to fuck around
>>
>>29252651
PA advanced micro or 1-6x or a vortex strike eagle. this is if your on a budget
>>
Vortex, Bushnell, Burris, and Primary Arms all make quality optics in or around your price range. Did you even think to google it or did you just want to get heckled for your shitty rifle?

Optics been sitting in the box since I got home it's going back tomorrow, stock came with the gun in the near future I do plan on replacing it
Bipod is usually off it only goes on when I feel like dicking around
>>
>>29252651
100-300 is still pretty "close"
Aimpoint carbine optic, or the new Trijicon MRO will work well.
You can get the carbine optic for around $350, and the MRO for about $450. Both will work well, MRO better for closer up, Carbine for closer to 300.
>>
>>29252709
Did Google it was all "EOTECH GET IT NOW DON'T GO WITH ANYTHING ELSE, MY OPINION IS THE ONLY OPINION"
plus I've never used an optic and didn't know what brands are good but I'm gonna be looking at some of this shit you guys are throwing out, plus my shifty gun did make you reply :^)
>>
Stock: shit.
Lower: OK
Upper: OK, but inscription should go inside dust cover, not outside.
Grip: shit. Use the A1 grip instead.
Magazine: OK, but I hope you're not intending to use it with the bipod.
Handguard: OK, but ugly
Foregrip: Good
Bipod: Shit, especially when combined with the magazine.
Barrel: Shit, no GL cutout
Muzzle: OK
Front Sight: OK
Optic: Shit
Rear Sight: OK

All in all, 8/13: 61%

>>29252680
Kinda like the micro just I don't like having my field of vision being blocked but I'd have to see it in person to really know
>>
>>29252816
I have etching on both :^)
Grip came with the gun I like it
And I specifically use that mag with the bipod to look like a dick

Buy an aimpoint PRO. Get rid of the bipod, move the foregrip further forward.

If an aimpoint is too expensive, buy a better rear sight and realize that you get what you pay for and your average rifle optic starts at $450.

I saved for years and sold off a lot of stuff to buy my TA31.
>>
>>29252948
Personally I like having my foregrip close I have more control
As I stated before bipod is rarely on
What so bad about my rear sight?
>>
Do you just have an open hole where your forward assist should be? Buy a Bushnel TRS25 with a UTG riser set to see if you like lower 1/3 or absolute cowitness. They are like $60-80 and ok for plinky guns...
>>
>>29252422
how do you have no forward assist? what kinda shitass company is selling no fa uppers where its not slickside but fuck it to lazy to drill hole
>>
>>29253027
>>29253016
500 bucks couldn't beat it especially in my town
It has no fa no hole nothing it's the only down side to the gun haven't needed an fa yet but wish it was smooth
>>
>>29253062
you know this shitshow is exactly what i expect when i hear 500 ar
