What is your logic in the decision? If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

What is your logic in the decision? Does he look to be straining? I am laughing at your 5 ". Yes... that is a terrible stance. The question remains... "Why you would mount a scope 43% more forward than specified by the manufacturer?" Is it a marketing thing? Does it sell more guns?

Is the reticle bold enough for quick shooting? I see the scope is SFP.

The reticle is in the link... IMHO it is cluttered (but I am #1 and #4 kinda guy). Good news is that it says "Illuminated"... The other good news is that it costs $200...

Damn near a red dot on 1x, with illumination turned on.
