My CQC (Close Quarters Combat) AR-15 build is complete!

Features I added:

* 45 degree angled fore grip
* 45 degree angled backup iron sights
* Sig Sauer MSR red dot reflex sight
* Monstrum 3x flip-to-side magnifier

All in all I love the setup.

My main criticisms are really just two, one purely aesthetic, the other functional. Both of which reside with the Monstrum 3x.

1) The FDE color is off from the standard and looks bad

2) It has a very limited eye-box and thus can be hard to use and may cause issues in a high-stress situation.

Only reason I went with Monstrum here rather than the juliet3 that sig makes for it was because I couldnt find an FDE colored magnifier from Sig... But after seeing the eye box I think I will just order the black one and call it a day. That said if you want to save a little money and are ok with the eye-box the Monstrum is still looking good outside of that. The fact it has diopter adjustment is always nice.

A list (with pictures) of all the ancient capstones that are known. Quite a few survived till the modern day.

Contrary to popular belief they don't appear to be gold but rather stone.

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!

Ummm.. so they had this up at a gun-parts store. Not sure where to start...

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!
