Heh I'm going to play saturday so Ill test the scope and calibrate it and such. It should be pretty much the same as a red dot. I bought a remote line and I was wondering is it better to hook it up to the ASA or to the tombstone? THanks |

Actually it looks pretty sweet with the scope... I like it. It flows quite nicely. ------------- <just say no to unnecessarily sexualized sigs> |

Nah. Even if my paintball gun isn't accurate enough it'll show me the general area. I like looking through my sights but my stock won't allow it so scope = substitute.
Thanks :D |

It looks nice. I wouldn't suggest using the scope as a red dot though. You might get too used to "Tunnel Vision" and not notice everything else. Hey, if all else fails, you could probably beat someone to death with the scope in self defense :P (I had to, Im sorry) -------------

I think you should do what you want with your gun....besides it is yours.This site is full of internet haters that would not confront you face to face. Leave the scope.

| I think you could do better with a smaller scope, but it does make the gun look more dangerous (in a good way). The only thing I would suggest would be to get rid of some of the shine off the scope, I'm sure it would stick out like a sore thumb in the bushes. |

I tested it out and it works fine. I can see my paintballs fly the whole way inside the scope. The only thing is that I couldn't get it centered because as you can see in the pic the scope is rotated wrong. Theres supposed to be a knob on the top and right side, not on the left side and the top. 90degrees over and I'm good. |

Hi I had to make a new account because I accidentally messeded up my
email in the settings. And the stupid forums wouldn't let me go back
and change my email because they deactivated my account. Anyways I made a new stock out of wood. The purpose was to have some sight relief because the mask really gets in the way when using the car stock. This was actually intended to only work for the scope, but since I am such a good carpenter I unconsciously made it low enough to allow me to use my iron sights too. Kick ass! Sorry, bad camera!  You might want to turn your volume down for the vid, everytime I touch the camera to the stock it sounds like an earthquake.
