eant this one. No I don't troll much. Hope when my shoulder heals ill do less.You do realize that in this day and age ex-SWAT means nothing, right? Anyone can be SWAT if you know how to play your cards right. Hell, I know a guy who is SWAT that runs NCStar. He lives in a little town and hardly ever uses his rifle. You just walked in to a forum who consists of avid hunters, Special Forces, avid instructors, and security contractors. We are also a hard to please bunch who needs facts, charts, and graphs. When it comes to optics that is designed to save your life a review from Joe in his overalls saying "the glass didnt break when I dropped it" isn't good enough.
Zero the optic.
Mount it on a full auto AR run 60 rounds thorough it.
Test the accuracy.
Drop it. Run 30 rounds through it
Test the accuracy.
Hit it on a tree a few times. Run 60 more rounds through it.
Test the accuracy.
Drag it behind a truck in the sand. Run 30 rounds.
Test the accuracy.
Is it water proof?
Even better, is it water proof dropped 10 feet from the air into a shallow stream with rocks in the bottom?
Can it take multiple deployments in the worst conditions you can think of?
I know Aimpoint and ACOG can. =]
The reason I like PA is because their scopes are good for casual hunting. I would never do anything extreme to it though. Your optic can get someone killed. It looks like a copy of and ACOG but if it fails when someone needs it then what good is it? You are mimicking the looks of a combat sight but without combat grade strength and durability. I have no use for that, even for hunting.
