Need to talk to my son and see if he is available. So we might be joining. I'll let you know ASAP.

[Sticks]

Anybody have a spare RDS they could loan me - as in sitting in a box or drawer waiting for an upper to be mounted on?

I hope to have my Mk12 done by then and would like to run it. Doubt I will have my scope in by then. Not thrilled of the idea of taking my Aimpoint off my other and going through the re-zeroing process for both.

Of course it would not kill me to run the course with my BUIS.

I strongly suggest that everyone read Batteriesnare's AAR. Pay special attention to the 'showing up with the unlube'd/unzero'd/untested rifle' parts.

No one wants to be 'THAT GUY' in the class. Trust me.

I take it you want us to have a 50 yards zero?

Also, do you have any issues with me running an XCR Mini (10" barrel)?

Thanks,

Mike

Between your 10" and my SureFire brake, it is sure to be annoying on the line for bystanders.

They aren't any worse than flaming pigs on a krink.

His XCR is a sweet, smooth running rifle.

Just a thought...you're advertising this as an entry level carbine class. Wouldn't zeroing/confirming zero and discussing the philosophies behind a 25, 36m, 50, and 100yd zero be appropriate as well as giving them a chance to learn their holdovers? Or do you expect newer shooters to learn it all from the internet? 1 hr on this at the begining of the course would turn "that guy" into a more knowledgeable and better shooter as well as help set the tone for the rest of the course, not to mention the diagnostic work on fundamentals you would be reviewing....

again, just a thought.

Just trying to offer some free advise that was passed on to me years ago. It is your class, run it at you want to. I believe it is better to turn "that guy" into a grateful customer than an outcast for being new. If you inspect gear, then inspect zero as well. Small input of time at the begining that saves time in the end.
