    I have a TA33h on mine, wife has a T-1. 33 lets me push out some, but works well under 100 yards too, and eye relief is so much better than the 31 I had before.

    TA31 on a LaRue mount. I have no problem with the eye relief or "speed" because it's all I've been using for 4 years at work and I can run it.

    I'm trying to completely eliminate the need for batteries. A 25-pack of CR123's will keep my light powered for a long, long time.

    My go to gun(11.5") gun has a h1 in a bobro mount with KAC micros. The secondary gun has a Leupold VXR 1.5-4 and KAC micros, but I wouldn't be nearly as comfortable using that gun as a all around SHTF gun because of the optic. I'm sure I could train to use it better, but the aim point is just so much faster for me at this point.

    My light weight AR that is set to grab and go sports an Aimpoint T1 on a Larue LT751 with FTS magnifier & Troy Folding BUIS ( just can't beat the battery life on the T1 for grab and go.) My CQB gun sports a Eotech XPS-3-2 ( I'm getting older and I like the big window & reticle for closer stuff.)

    I live in a city, so having a red dot on my shtf gun is the better way to go, imho. Also, I wanted something compact that I can move around/enter and exit vehicles with, ect.. Im running a PWS MK107 MOD 1 Diablo with a red dot, iron sights and a surefire Mini scout light.
    up here in Canada, SBR's can be had with only a about 1 week wait from time of purchase till you can take it home.

    My "Go-To" rifle or SHTF rifle is just for that purpose…It's the one I grab and go with.

    I have a second rifle, setup the exact same way as my go-to rifle all the way down to where I keep my DD sling mount. Same optics, same zero, same ammo, identical except for serial numbers. This rifle is used to replicate what I would be using if that proverbial day ever came to fruition.

    Do you use an IR laser at night; otherwise, how do you shoot at night with irons and PVS-14?
