The scope I used was a very inexpensive 308 calibrated scope. Instead of a fine hash mark to aim with it has a big dot. I hate that! I am shopping for a better scope that has real fine cross hairs for the BDC reticle. All I could do is hold it in the middle as good as I could and hope for the best. For a few hits in the same place is mond boggling with all considering. The scope is rugged and holdsa zero like a champ but it is a budget scope none the less. Even holding in the middle it was shooting low. It's good enough for now. I am going to buy a much better scope for my new AR-10 build. I have had the scope on the rifle that shot those rounds for 8 or more years. It's good enough to break in a barrel and plinking with but that's all.
I have always looked at like I can always buy a good scope but I have been trying to build all I can before Biden bends us over and ask for the soap. I have a nice little collection of AR guns now so I am going to invest in a few good scopes now if I can put the one last .223 I would like to add to the safe. I have said this 2 or 3 times and two months down the road I find myself in the middle of another build like a complete moron.
That depends.
Braces were probably best described as an 'accessory'. And they were banned. For a while, there was concern that accessories that were 'military style' might be banned.
What's a 'military style' accessory?
One used by the military. Like tube scopes. Why would an American citizen not in the military need a "Sniper Scope" - or a "Night Scope" - or a "Tactical Light"? These are devices that the military use. They're weapons of war! It's why we have export restrictions on them under ITAR.
This was very much on the minds of the NSSF 4 or 5 years ago.
