Beater AR

[Sam1]

Figured I would pick up a beater piston AR (looking at getting into 3 gun sometime soon).  Decent deal from royal range, not much more than it would cost online and a lot less hassle.

I just can't figure out why they would install the reflex site mount so far down the barrel.

Far sighted?

Who makes it Sam?

[Sam1]

Adams Arms - was the cheapest piston gun I could find that seemed decent. Don't much care for the high twist rate, but this isn't going to be used for precision shooting either.

That's what all the operators do. Do you even operate bro?

Warms up the sight on cold operator mornings.

You're missing the rear sight. 

 

I've seen this before, a yellow dot front and a blue dot for the rear. When everything is lined up correct you get a green dot on target. 

 

Super low drag-high speed stuff here.
