    I wish I had a carbine course around here I have been wanting to shoot one. I'm about as far from sand as you can get minus living 20 minutes from the gulf coast.

    And even then it's not so much sand you need to worry about; it's dust that's the problem. Moondust doesn't seem to be a problem where you're located.

    Could someone elaborate (provide a source perhaps) on the issue with the Vortex bending/blooming?

    I've heard this several times now, but no one bothers to expound on it.

    I'm not trying to call anyone a liar, but we all benefit when real, significant data is brought into the discussion.

    They're usually along these lines. Markm has said that he's had the prongs open up on him too (same with uscmvet later in that thread).

    Whats the point of adding a part to your weapon designed as a war fighting tool if you can only discuss it terms of commercial use? If thats the case, he doesn't need a flash hider, bayonet lug, pistol grip or sliding stock and better turn in those 30 round mags for some 5 round models...

    I have had a Vortex on a M4 for about a year now. 2-3k rounds later no problem. Of course I am not running and gunning much because I am too old for that.
