Can also make it hard for the bad guys to pinpoint where the shot came from.
Yeah, even when I was making good money, I could not have afforded those or the scopes or the binoculars.
I have had some decent, Winchesters, Remingtons and even a couple of H&K’s. Leopold and Redfield’s back when Redfield was a great scope.
I even got a couple of nice Steiners from pawn shops near Ft. Stewart. Those Steiners have a great wow factor tho after you have them for a while you realize that they are excellent but there are better ones.
