The tactical honeymoon is over... with pics.

Am I the only one here that has gone from tactical overload back to the baics with thier AR-15? It seems like I try to make myself like the tacticool stuff, but I seem to just want to go back to something simple.

I went from this:

to this

back to this

then this

to this

and after some rationalization this afternoon... this.

I feel this is a more of a need vs want thing. I can't really say i have a need for the tacticool stuff, and it usually goes unused or gets in the way. Anybody else?

I'll take any tool that gives me an upper hand in a fight. If I can't get a nuke I'll take an Eotech. I do appreciate the sentiment and miss my M16A2 with fixed carry handle that I used in the military.

I loved the look of the old M16 when it first came out. With that said, if I ever have to use my gun in a fight, I want a bright red circle and dot.

You're a sick, sick man. I was giddy the day I got to trade in my A2 and pick up an M4. Of course it didn't have all the tacticool accessories that are common today.
