problems with reflex sight




Quote:wow, u must make a whole lot more than I do. things aren't tight, just too many pans in the fire right now. And if you read my other post, you'll see that a stated I can't sell the gun, dad would whoop me. Frankly, I picked the two red dots up on here for cheap because I needed one and they were cheap, so I bought two to see which I would like. I have my sights set on a meprolight because it has the reticles I'm looking for.
Some of us are perfectly willing to use the equipment we can afford at the time and are perfectly aware of the limitations that may be put on us by such equipment. we will make do until we can get better stuff. It's obnoxious and discouraging to read a post from someone who says they have x amount of dollars, which scope, or caller, etc. should I get, only to have a bunch of guys say whoa wait til You can afford one two or three times as much. NO! That's what they can afford to spend now, and they wanna hunt now, not in a few months or longer. A lot of us started out hunting with what our parents can afford and worked up to nicer stuff, some of us still have to.
So lets stick to the topic at hand. If I wanted opinions on what red dot to get I would have asked.

Well I guess we live in the age of instant gratification. Never mind my advice. If you would have saved the dough you spent on the NC star you would have been half way towards something that would actually be serviceable like Pahntr suggested and you would likely not be having issues with your optics. I guess you couldn't wait another payday. That's what I do but hey it's your money your business. I shall withhold further constructive advice since you are averse to it.

That's fine since you are missing the point of what I'm trying to explain. Right now I'm getting into trapping, starting to make powder and priming horns, just returned from a hunting trip to kansas, and am slowly fixing up the old farm house I bought. I liked pahntr's advice, but do not want a plain red dot and don't like any of the ones he suggested. I'm leaning toward an eotech or a meprolight. I did not spend much on the nc star or the one that's on the shotgun. The nc star is on my ar and being as I can't hunt with it in PA I saw no point in putting a bunch of money in it. You call it instant gratification, I call it being able to get out hunting and making as sure as I can that I'm killing them, not wounding them. Waiting another payday wouldn't have mattered. Most of my toys I buy with money earned from taking in scrap, then my paychecks can be used for makin my house even better. some people just have a better understanding of what's important, other people think anything other than what they do is wrong.
