    So why is it RECCE and not Recce or recce?

    Gotta standardize this $hit.

    We can't even agree on a barrel length.

    I was thinking a mini RECCE was an SBR with a LPV.

    But of course, I wouldn't touch a micro-precision-SBR with HPV!

    I'm putting a 1-8 on mine when it's all said and done, form is back. It'll have a 10.5 rainier.

    Unless you are like a real actual LRRP/LRS/Sneaky Pete, then technically it will never be a recce rifle, will it?

    Guys in Vietnam just slapped on homebought scopes on their rifle, green taped it, and called it good.

    Am I wrong?

    My dad when he ran with MACV-SOG never had any optics on his xm177, just irons. RECCE rifles originated with seals and even the LRS that you find in the army today are running acog, Ranger RECCE guys are probably running elcans and group RECCE teams probably run elcan too.

    It absolutely does not, to an extent. I worded that post incorrectly, I was attempting to infer that putting a powered optic on a rifle does not make it a precision gun.

    But it sure can help an accurate rifle shoot more precise.

    You've got that backwards. A quality powered optic can help a shooter be more accurate with an already precise rifle.
