Colt 3x And 4X AR15/M16 Scope
The colt 3×20 and 4x 20 scopes have been around a long time. Almost as long as the AR15 it was meant for. It is one of the first optics to ever be designed specifically for the AR15/M16 and was used during the Vietnam war. The optic attaches to the carry handle of the upperContinue reading “Colt 3x And 4X AR15/M16 Scope”
Black Wolf Knives

The maker details the making of these knives on the facebook page thatContinue reading “Black Wolf Knives”
Mark AR MOD 1 1.5-4x20mm
The Leupold MK AR 1x4x is a pretty nifty optic. With the increase in popularity of the variable power carbine optic and the increase in price that comes along with that popularity. The 1x-4x is no frills alternative that is still handy and versatile without the $1,800+ price. The scope has a 1 inch tubeContinue reading “Mark AR MOD 1 1.5-4x20mm”

AR15 & Unertl Combo
I have seen various mounts for a Unertl to work on an AR15. The earliest I’ve seen was done by a USMC RTE armorer in Vietnam. It mounted the USMC contract 8X Unertl to an M16. Reading his comments on it gave me the impression he did it just to see if he could doContinue reading “AR15 & Unertl Combo”
