    I was gifted a pelican case for Christmas. Just got it set up for the 6.8. A8EDCEB3-354F-4D27-B617-7FF74AE742AC.jpeg

    Aero Precision EPC 9 pistol with the 11" barrel. Bought the upper and lower complete, the sling, mounts, light and sights are bits that I had laying around. I have a Vortex Sparc, but it's being used on another gun and may look at something smaller from Holosun.
    About 150 rounds of both ball and HP through for break-in, probably needs another 150. There were a few failure to feeds, otherwise a good shooter.

    Couple of new pics, outfitted for it's home defense role. The optic is a Vortex Sparc Solar. Runs on daylight outside, switches to the battery inside or in low light. The gun light is an Olight Odin Mini that I just got today in trade. Bigger bodied and longer than I thought it would be, but 1250 lumens, rechargeable and essentially free.
    Being that the gun is a direct blow back and has a feed cone and no actual feed ramps, finding JHP ammo that runs reliably has been challenging. I found that it doesn't like longer 147 gr rounds, but does well with 124 +P's from Winchester.

    I am not the Stickman, but what is your intended use for it? Personally I would go with a LPVO like a 1-4 or 1-6, but I can step out my door and shoot out to 300 yards. That is where the magnification helps out, but dial it down and I have my red dot for up close. The LPVO really are game changers now.

    I have a Leupold VX-R Patrol 1-4 that is really nice and I'll keep it on one of my rifles, but I want to try out the Vortex PST Viper 1-6. I have seen claims that it is 90% the optic as the Razor HD is, but at half the cost.

    I have a vortex strike eagle on my 6.8 spc, it’s a decent budget optic. I checked out the pst viper just after I got the strike eagle. The glass is superior on the viper. I believe it is the ticket

    I guess it all depends on your intended use @Boker55 . My 6.8 is for hunting and target shooting.

    My stamp arrived by mail on Thursday. I had this SBR assembled by lunchtime on Friday. Me and my partner in crime spent all day shooting on Saturday. He's cutting loose on a string of soda cans and had it down by the second tanker mag. I'm gonna have a problem getting him to plink with anything rimfire now.

    The 6.8 is my go to hunting rig these days. I took my Swiss k31 but it stayed in the case.

    Thanks, hope you are having a great Thanksgiving but here in Canada we did that Oct 11. Have to get a jump on turkeys before you guys eat them all.

    what brand shot shell card on the 870? Does it hold shells securely? I’m thinking of some for my HD gun.
