I was hoping that when I opened this thread I would be greeted with scenes from the original Gone in 60 Seconds or Ronin! Both are excellent. The back story on the original Gone in 60 Seconds is as fun as the movie.

My first car was a '91 Geo Storm. I actually wish I still had it as a beater. It ran forever, got decent mileage, and was actually a fun little car. It was that hideous teal green color that was so popular back then.
The "knock off" ACOGs that I have seen are only similar in looks to real ACOGs. They share nothing in common in terms of function.
ACOGs have some of the best, most intuitively designed reticles on the market, excellent quality glass, extreme durability, and great customer service. The knock...
If weight is the primary concern - T1 or H1
If cost is the primary concern - M2 or C3
If battery life and commonality are the primary concern - M4 or M4S

I do not keep them all loaded but I like to have at least 10 magazines (and often more) that have been tested for function for each firearm I own. They are going to get dropped, stepped on, and used one after the other in training so it is nice to have plenty of spares.
Hello all,
My name is Matt and, while I have lurked here for some time, I have never posted. I have been around guns for most of my life. In the last several years, my firearms interest and training has taken a more serious tone as the reality of being the protector of a family and home begin...
