Yes he did. He left me a Colt Detective Special when he passed away (1923 - 2004) and a Marlin Model 60. I still own both of them.

But I wish he had held onto the Remington Model 10. Evidently he also had a Mauser C/96 Broomhandle (when he was a kid) which was mostly used in the fall when they slaughtered the hogs. Hard to say what happened to those two guns.

Pretty much any country, actually. RPG launchers are often only a little more expensive than AKs (sometimes even cheaper). I'm guessing that for the price of one EOTech, most Third World armies could buy enough RPGs to equip a platoon of infantry (maybe even a company).

Well I have an Archangel stock on my 10/22, I guess I'm a poser then.:D

It does in fact come in hands when you have at least six inches in height on your GF.

Maybe the reasoning behind that is the same idea as wearing camo clothing. ;)

It looks like it'd be in the ideal firing position, what reason would there be to extend it? At least it makes a bit more sense than where the vertical grip is located or how far below the actual trigger the pistol grip is.

Not arguing the set-up is practical or anything, just saying. ;)

That's an ITL MARS red dot, not an EOTech.

*Shrugs* Eh, whatever, I made the same mistake. All holosights look like EOTechs to me (most of them are so expensive that I can't even contemplate owning any, so I don't bother reading much about 'em).

Yep, sure are. :D
