AR15 Optics: Considerations, Tips, and TTPs

By lslatton | Published: September 9, 2011

During my career in the military I was fortunate enough to use a wide variety of optics on the M-4 weapon system. While all of these generally performed well, each was built with a specific purpose and I routinely saw optics being mounted and employed incorrectly, and improper optic use quickly became a personal pet-peeve. Consequently, I’ve put together [...]

By Mike Centola | Published: April 12, 2011
