Does the Eo Tech help you compared to the iron sights? Does the front sight effect your use of the HWS? Is your co witness 1/3 or absolute?
if you wanted to put eotech magnifier on, is there enough room or would it extend to far past the reciever
I'm used to have a Magpul BUIS sights on my M4. Hate it. Horrible sight picture, plus the sights ain't durable as they're polymer made. I like metal made sights, but can't justify myself spending $200 for a pair, as they are BUIS, not primary. I tried Matech flip up sight and it's a very good sight for the money, around $40 on Ebay. You should check it out
Your thoughts on the forward assist are interesting. I've seen many a keyboard commando claim that without a forward assist it's not operator/war ready/fighting carbine/whatever label you want to put. Great video by the way! just found your channel and am enjoying your man v gun series.
Based on your comments, I wonder if a 16" "dissipator" with a collapsible stock would be a better choice. Mid or rifle length gas system and the ability to grab the hand guard further down the barrel. Why does everyone want a carbine length gas system for a 16" barrel?
Hey TI just a quick question about this M4 you own, is it a 16" or 14.5" barrel?
And I take it that it has a carbine length gas system and handguard?
Nice rifle, i see alot of people getting bone stock m4's these day then dumping all kinds of money into them putting on crazy accessories. In my opinion i feel that a non SBR m4 as a civilian is pointless. why not get a mid length upper or dissipator? it just seems like a waste having all that barrel hanging out in front of the sight with limited places to put your hand. the short sight radius kinda sucks too lol. anyways, another good video.
That is why you get newer and modern rifle such as the ACR and the SCAR.
its a car bean 😂
Good video, can you give me information on where you got the helmet you are wearing while shooting? Thank you.
Firstly, I really enjoy watching your videos.
The deficiencies you describe in the M4 carbine, were the reasons the SCAR was created! Have you had a chance to try the SCAR?
Thanks for sharing
Good video. I think you're doing a great job in summarizing the attributes of these rifles. Looking forward to the next one.
When you appeared in MARPAT I was partially expecting you to recite the riflemans creed, old devildog. 😉
