Got the SCAR 17 last Friday, and my Tan RFB will be here on Wednesday... I can' t decide on optics. Any suggestions?
Thinking ACOG/RMR Combo or ELCAN for the SCAR, and a ?? on the RFB.
What side do you run your charging handle on the 17? It matters because there are clearance issues with the Elcan SpecterDR on a left-sided handle configuration. It's not bad, but you can strip some flesh if you are not careful. This comes into play with wider optics such as Eotechs too, especially if you are going to run a magnifier.
Aimpoint micros are GTG. ACOGs are fine too since the mounts can be reversed based on your configuration.
