Like the range finder especially. Let us know how it works out. I have been thinking about that Nikon scope that has a built in laser rangefinder.

I looked at them, BULKY! Wait on that I think till they make it much smaller...and at a price point we can afford for it.

Wife gave me the go to on a scope up to $2500 for my B day and I opted for the Trijicon and other stuff rather than going really BIG...the Trijicon 6x 50 variable looked GREAT, and the guy came down to $1900 I nearly went for it, but decided on more stuff rather than just 1 scope...but I love the idea of a built in laser RF but waiting on tech to downsize...

I looked at the Grip Pod. It seemed interesting and I'm entertaining one of those when the AR-10 arrives. It seems like it's a little on tall/high side. Shoot it a few times and let me know your thoughts.

They had an AR with it on it and I really liked the grip, then I pushed the button and BINGO this bipod pops out and is ready to go. Great idea I thought and went for it.

NOTE: There are two companies making this, they look almost exactly the same, but diff is $ one is $35, one is $90. Cheap don't come good and good don't come cheap...get them side by side and see the diff.

What make is your AR15? i couldn't quite read it. I am guessing Colt or Armalite. Also, how do you like the AK74 type flash hider? At least in the picture that is what it looks like. By the way, both guns and scopes look very nice.
