My DD M4V5 boomstick

I replaced the fixed sights with Tritium flip-sights and removed the tape switch for the traditional push cap. To me keeping the electronics as "analog" as possible makes them more robust. Tape switches can be finicky when damaged.

I'd like to try a 3x Magnifier as opposed to a 1x4 optic. I'm happy with the T-1, so I'd rather add to the T-1.

Nice rifle...maybe you'll like it, I tried it and didn't. To me, if I need magnification, I also need a more precise aiming point and possibly holdover capabilities. All the magnifier does is improve your observation/identification abilities, but not your precision.

I had this:

And now have this, I like it MUCH better:

Of course, there's nothing wrong with just running the T-1 too. Just depends on what you need to do.

Wheels make the perfect backdrop.

Definitely in the future I have plans for a precision upper. With this current setup its mostly for classes and general usage. I'd like to build a 20" upper with a 1x4 optic, I have no idea what kind of parts yet, but that's what I ultimately want.

If the T-1/magnifier combo isn't to my liking I am thinking about the Trijicon 1x4 Accushot. My buddy has one on his GPi rifle and it works very well for him.

Sunday shall be fun! Hopefully you're bringing some match ammo to try out that new build with?

Just laid the aervoe down with homemade stencils. Still need to dust over with OD
