I just had mine in for service with them and they are excellent. They re-painted, new springs, sites, etc. It was pretty beat up - tons of scratches and came back like a new side arm! I can't say enough about them.

I am not home but next time I am (should be next week) I will post some pics of it!
Awesome. I'm looking at the Talon, Predator and Costa Recon. I'm leaning towards the Predator, but I think I'd rather have the Melonite finish instead of the Perma Kote. I've heard it stands up against wear better.

Hey guys I have an AR-15 with a scope and reflex site. I use the reflex for home defense/ close up shots. I use my scope for coyote hunting. Do you think removing the scope when not hunting would take away accuracy? The scope mount is a one piece mount with quick releases from the rail. I should say will it affect the accuracy to where I would be not hitting a coyote at 100 yards?

A good quality quick detach mount and a good quality scope will not lose zero after removing and remounting. If you cheap out on either one, then you will have issues. If however, you do lose zero, at 100 yards it won't be as bad as you think.

With the one piece mount quick release, it shouldn't be an issue at 100 yards IMO. Any longer though I would get a new case so you don't need to remove it.

We started a page a little while back on facebook. If anyone wants any "Arms Advocate" vinyl decals, shoot us a message

Here is a pic our SBR SA58 .308 by DSA. Anyone have any recommendations on an optic? Maybe 3x?

Here is the scope mount I have. I just saw that mine does not have the quick release levers. min has the finger twist nuts. But none the less, It is only a couple of twists and it is off and thats just usng your hand.

You shouldn't have any issues.

I use the same mount on my Grendel and I take it out farther than that and never had any issues

Nice FAL!

I had a Vortex Sparc on my FAL but since I have a 21" barrel I swapped it out for a conventional type scope. The Sparc is decent and not expensive at all.

The .223 pic I posted showed an EOTech 552. I actually borrowed it from my AUG for the picture, because I was waiting for my new one to come in. I ultimately went with the EOTech EXPS2 and 3X magnifier (G33.STS).

On my .308 I decided on the ACOG (TA11H-308G).
