Get the Aimpoint 3XMag. Stick with same manufacturer for both as everybody seems to have their own heights for their sights and optics. Same goes when you're using some aftermarket mount for your CompM4s; get the same branded mount and everything for maximum compatibility. As for tapes on your weapon, I don't recommend it at all as the adhesive from the tape will melt due to the heat of your barrel and cause it to have very nasty sticky residue. In the video, looks like Eli has (correct me if I'm wrong) medical gauze as a wrap on his handguard. I suggest the same. Get some cloth wrap for the front end to mitigate the heat from the barrel or for aesthetics as long as it doesn't impede on your manipulation of your weapon system.
@@MidwestDefender I have the geissele mount for my Aimpoint. I don't want a Aimpoint magnifier cuz it's nasty expensive.. isn't there another possibility? On top of that I want a good eye relief and maybe a X5 magnification.
Used a 3x Monstrum budget magnifier and 3x micro Sig magnifier. Eye relief on micro magnifiers suck. Had an easier time shooting with regular size magnifiers. But the Sig Juliet 3x is so nice on my Unity FTC Omni lol
Wasting time with the robotic movement, stop forcing unnecessary and unnatural movements like this. Just move while making all of your weapon checks, Multitask.
@@ProjectGecko if your moving to break contact then weapon on safe and move, while you are moving you can check the rifle status and if need be fix it. The key part of this is moving, there is a reason you are breaking contact or you would be assaulting. You also need to communicate, letting your teammates know what you are doing and sometimes talking it through help make it happen. Also setting up static ranges with no cover to move to isn’t ideal, nobody is fighting on flat ranges unless it’s the desert. Move to cover for obvious reasons.
@@VictoryOrValhalla14you see it from a tactical training perspective. this was merely a technical environment . in a closed environment in front of paper targets...it still does not answers my first question... the reason I would AF prior to every movement is due to the idea I exchange one cover with another. i wanna know what and where before I commit to a bound. i still fail to see how, what you describe a decision making, checking a gun status, is seeing as a robotic movement.
@@ProjectGecko Train like you fight, fight like you train. What decisions are you making? You’re breaking contact? a basic battle drill and the reason it’s a basic battle drill is to take the decisions out of it. Checking the status of your rifle doesn’t make sense, your objective is to break contact and you should be doing it as fast and orderly as possible. Check your rifle while bounding, correct any issues while moving or better yet behind cover. When you tell your team your moving you need to move, so they can up the rate of fire for suppression so there is less chance you are hit while you are defenseless. The same reason once your set behind cover you ramp up your rates of fire. Leave the range theatrics to the ex operators milking people for money.
Hey man, respect the guy. Eli is a great guy and a great instructor. So is Garand Thumb, they are both very respectable people who shed blood sweat and tears for the work they do.
