Thread: Rattle gun suggetions

Have the iron sight issue sorted.
Handgaurd has plenty of positions to fit a small rail to mount a foresight.

Still can't decide on optics. Thinking 1-6x or 2-7x or 2-8x
Just not sure on brands.

I'm thinking along the lines of getting the same scope when I can find it available, let me know if you find it somewhere for a good price

You can pre-order at gunsnz.com.
I haven't yet but will fit my rifle with a spare 2-7 scope I have now and irons till I maybe get a look at one.

Vortex Strike Eagle Scope 1-6x24 AR-BDC Reticle FREE S&H SE-1624-1. Vortex Rifle Scopes.

The two I am interested in are the Steyr AUG , and the SIG550 , shoot both , However , the due to the design of the SIG , I have heard a few complaints of the 550 having slight accuracy issues , BUt I feel it is still more than acceptable for GovT work .
The complaints come from the Swiss , and they have the most actual trigger time with this platform .

RE : the AUG , trigger someone makes a " trigger tamer " for it , BUT , all I would do , would be strip the trigger down , sand down the mold line on the sear surfaces , then use the issue graphite powder that NZ Army uses .

And yes , 1 ) It makes a BIG difference in both smoothness & pull weight , & 2 ) YES , I have done exactly what I have said on a Steyr AUG rifle .

Accuracy , would favour the AUG , I believe , also , spare mags would be maybe easier to get ?
As both are piston guns , they would have less problems running a suppressor , than DI guns .

Later Chris

So this style?

Stag Arms Model 3G 3-Gun Competition, 5.56 NATO 18" A or E Cat

If money isn't a worry I would get a vortex razor 1-6. Massive FOV

That's why I settled on the strikefire FOV is almost identical.
Optics may not be as good but good enough for 3 gun and the like.

That's cool, I've been watching Vortex 1-6x24 Strike Eagle Riflescope (AR-BDC Reticle) SE-1624-1
Pricing seems to be set well, has anyone had any word on likely price in NZ

Over $850 is what I have seen so far.
Should be a good buy from the states and even better from OZ.
I have pre-ordered one from your link.😆
Will pick it up in Oz when there with work to save a bit.

No one has them in stock yet by the looks.

You might want to be careful with that.

Australian Customs has apparently prosecuted people for exporting firearm accessories without the required paperwork, ie RGB (Restricted Goods Permit) or Defence Export Permit.

That is ANY accessories. Even slings.

Ok, then so where's the Oz link???

Might just have to get one sent to my hotel.....
