Coating? I have no clue. Personally I would pick Galil 32, but the Marines use Tavor probably because it is lightweight and versatile. Tavor is standard assault rifle for Israeli infantry.

Looks like Meprolight optics on the tavors. Good choice!

i tried neprolight, for some reason I don't like the contrast, you will need to adjust the sight a lot and the all in one thing, I am not really used to it. I would rather go back to eclan 430 but many people tell me they like this sight, so, I guess, it's just me....

Also, Maybe I am used to the ballistic drop indicator from ACOG, the lacking of it (or maybe I don't know how to fix it as I said, it's a bit complicated for a All-In-One sight.) make me feel like I am constantly losing something.

Nah, given the limited time we may spend on the beach, the primary combat ground would be inland and the color black is not that recognizable with sand the background anyway.

I find this picture to be a bit funny so i post it. Female is not eligible for conscription in Vietnam though one may volunteer, still, they still have to take part general military compulsory lesson like their male counterpart. And.........as you can see, they dont take it serious at all :v

So classical long view finder is better? I wonder how can such a tinny viewer as neprolight can perform in combat?

Meprolight is a reflex sight, it's not a traditional sight like ACOG or Aimpoint Red Dot M2. It does not do what most combat optic do, you uses reflex sight for quick reference,

The problem that got me the most is that the reflective dot is not bright enough and cannot compensate for the environment automatically. Which kind of sucks....
 
Women power. Pany Yathotou (left), Chairwomen of the Laos National Assembly paid a visit to Vietnam. two strategically interesting agreements: the construction of a six-lane 707-kilometre route with a cost of $4.5 billion linking Lao and Vietnam capital will start later this year 2017. Also the construction of a railway to connect landlocked Laos with the South China Sea via Vietnam territory for an undisclosed sum. once completed, Vietnam will control all of Laos exports and imports via sea route as all goods will be unloaded at a Vietnamese seaport: Vung-Ang.

Grunts seem to prefer reflex sights for assault rifles given their effective range anyway.

Beats having to use irons and is not as cumbersome as a proper scope for short and even mid range action.


You can see the contrast issue that jhungary is talking about around 2 minute mark, I think it would be a personal choice as to the best amount to have.

I hope it happens! It will open up avenues for further cooperation.:cheers:

I would say half and half, half of the people I know like reflex, half doesn't. I guess it come down to how you use your rifle to be honest. I like to use it like a binocular, which I can scan target and adjust my range with, and I usually go for shot with accuracy, and my shooting sucks, so I have to aim a long time, that prompt me to use Combat Optics like ACOG or Aimpoint.

Reflex sight is for quick reference, if you go into close combat a lot, reflex sight is definitely gonna help you break the need for a quick reference. I know quite a lot of guys using both (an RMR on top of TA-31) on their rifle, I don't do that, but I do know this is quite popular choice soldier uses nowadays.

However, I have to confess, I have a RMR reflex sight on my sidearm when I was over there and I am currently using it on my pistol for IPSC.
