    Range, Al. Near Brewton.
    Seen a few that almost fit the bill, but no clear choice yet. Some examples. Prefer 3x, 4x. Crosshair or prism. Black in color. Tkx.

    This was brand new 9 years ago... and surprisingly affordable given that most people already had a $1,000 computer phone. But I bet there might be some still out there for sale somewhere. Maybe it was too futuristic and spacey for it's time?

    250,000 produced for the US Army in 10 years, so we'll be seeing surplus ones of these long before we see new ones for sale on the shelves

    Nope.
    That is not a carry handle. My DI said so! Ha! He would murder us in the pit if any of us used our carry handles

    Looks like they come with purpose made nightgear options also. I'll have to check into these again. I kinda wonder what it would look like on my canbrake I have in layaway. Just to be different of course lol. It may totally suck. I'm not sure tho. I've never handled a G36 yet. Looks cool tho. And a neat way to make more room on short rifles. May a win win sorta thing as far as space saving with the tailor made gear that is. My Rattler I have now gets cluttered fast

    Nope I never did. I started out a squad leader, day one. It was 300% worse if I ever did anything. I had 4 years in uniform already before basic training

    That was not ever supposed to be a "carry handle". It was a guard for a reciprocating bolt charger. Basically a really long trigger guard. A trigger that would break bones if your hand was in there

    Like famas. Cool but $600
    Pimping ain't easy, nor cheap I guess. Especially intergalactic, weapons grade H+K space gear. Must be why I don't see many in the wild lol. It's cheaper than the one I want tho, the Wilco Boss that they issue on military MCXs. 5k a pop for those bad boys.

    That and the fact the bolt and stock are in line. The cheek weld is so that you can't use short sights like usual. Unless you get a lowered stock and get your face lower. That's why even once that handle got removed the sights are still so high up off the actual bore. And it's why we see the handle still in use on many bullpups even with no charger there like that AR and Famas. But yeah myself I wouldn't "carry" one per say if if was a picatinny style attachment. I'd do so only if it's a whole reciever one. But the occasional "tote" shouldn't hurt. If they're that delicate, well... yeah I'd go another route instead lol. All my stuff is currently flat tops
