Interesting fact of the day... single cellular organisms have "Molecular Motors" in them.. basically the quantum mechanical equivalent of a mechanical motor... They are surprisingly similar in appearance and are just super cool!

Almost done my CQC build, about half way there... What does everyone like more the off-color FDE sites or the black sights ... both the same 45 degree angle design.

Ok decided to up the ante on my CQC ar-15... already have the red-dot installed (posting that image again for reference)... I decided im going to ad a flip-to-side 3x magnifier (got a monstrum brand as it was the only good quality magnifier in FDE I could find). I also have 45 degree FDE iron sights ill add as a backup.

I ordered the parts, ill share the final configuration when its done!

I reconfigured my AR-15 for CQC (Close Quarters Combat). I stripped everything off it that adds any weight, including iron sights, and moved to a Sig Sauer MSR red dot reflex.

I cant express how excited i am to have my station back up and runni g again off my own custom software... seriously this is awesome! Been waiting 2 years to finish this project!
