    What's really bad is that as I was flipping through it a guy walked up and glanced and said "cool".

    I said "not really".

    KAC, Colt, DD, LMT or BCM for me! Oh, and w/o all the Zombie graphics please!
    That was when I really knew I had to dump mine quick. I just don't get the green skulls but I guess to each his own.

    BRO rifles are the ordnance equivalent to the unbelievably high priced purses my wife buys. They probably get used about as often too.

    Holy smokes, I just looked at the webpage for the first time. IDIOT-fest! At face value it looks like a bunch of garbage parts from less than stellar makers, added on to some nicely machined receivers that the owners let their children design the accents/flair for.

    Two piece gas block/front sight towers, gimmicky logos and finishes, a muzzle device that looks like a mace from old European castle warfare? Give me a break. A POS 1913 riser with POS rings attached to that? If you're broke and you can't afford rings that are high enough-check. When you're advertising your awesome super duper rifle and you mount it like the morons at the corner table at the gunshow selling knock off airsoft garbage, no thanks. What about the commando on the homepage whose US Optics variable is attached with only one ring? I don't know him, maybe he learned that some place totally badass. Doesn't seem legit to me though.

    Companies that produce great stuff don't start off with gimmicks. Colt, HK, LaRue, BCM for example. Those are companies that produce great rifles. It makes me sad seeing Colt and Remington or EOTech making silly gimmick products. At least those companies still make good stuff. When a company comes right out of the gate with a logo that looks like that moronic EOTech biohazard reticle, I'd go the other way.

    I've thought about doing this. The Aimpoint rings are twice as fat as a single ring on a 2-ring mount, so you still get pretty substantial bearing on a 1x4 optic, especially if you're using a short, lightweight model. An ADM mid-height mount weighs 3.3oz, compared to Larue's almost half-pound heavier scope mount. Bobro's lighter single-lever mount comes down to 7.5, but it's still a quarter-pound more, if you can get your hands on one. Total weight of around 12oz, potentially, with a minimalist optic- substantially lighter than the 16.6oz in Micro/magnifier I'm packing this season, which is already an improvement over the 23+ you're looking at for a more conventional setup (with better optic, of course).

    For going ultra-light, I don't think it would cause any problems, so long as you didn't deliberately abuse it.

    I was at the range last winter sometime and a couple guys stopped over to check out my rifle (DD M4 v5 with a TR 24). They seemed to be drooling over it so I offered to let them try it out and the one guy declined saying he has his own AR just a few benches down.

    He started talking about how it was the only BRO with these particular graphics. I asked him how it shot and he said he hadn't shot it yet despite having it for 2 months. WTF. Then he goes on to say that he may not ever shoot it as "it may really be worth something someday." I told him good luck with that.
