Came across this picture which was causing an intense amount of debate and lowkey oneupsmanship by people on the prowl to show of their expertise in all things military who were also completely out of the loop on the gear they were talking about.

I really hope this isn’t AI because it looks really convincing, apart from the stock, wich looks weird and seems floating infront of the shoulder not pressed against and the iron sight still mounted on the barrel. You wouldn’t have it there if the other at the receiver is removed and es especially when it blocks the scope
AI could never get the detail right that he’s pushing the mag release and the mag is actually dropping out of the gun.
You’ve never seen an optic mounted on an M4 that still has the front sight block in place?
I think the laser designator being blocked by the front sight post and the heavy-ass optic only being held on by a single picatinny slot are bigger problems
It’s not, and it’s not.
It’s a combination flashlight and laser aiming module. The laser and light are offset to either side of the front sight because it was specifically designed to work with that rifle.
SSTF’s comment covers why the optic mount is fine. It’s made like that to give proper eye relief for that optic.
Dude, I’m checked out of this thread already. OP only made this post to parade around like a know-it-all douche and I’m not on board for giving them any more attention at this point.
This thread was made in good fun, as I had run across this picture being wildly misinterpreted by a bunch of people. I thought it would be fun to share under the assumption people subscribed to NCD for the most part would understand what’s happening.
My question is why it made you so mad that you decided to go on a downvote spree on a bunch of unrelated posts and comments of mine? Not like this place has account karma or anything, but it just seems like a strange reaction.
Have you ever met hardcore train enthusiasts, i.e. the I am unhealthily obsessed with trains types?
That is what this community is, but “defense” themed and far more unhinged … just look at this place’s banner.
i did, it was that all in all it gave a weird vibe and maybe i’m overexposed to AI images that i suspect them at every corner
A) That’s your gas block, without it you have a bolt action.
B) That’s what the pic riser is for.
C) yes you could replace the FSB with a modern gas block, but the barrel has been drilled for the FSB and I’d recommend changing the barrel too if you’re gonna do all that, and you’d wanna swap to a free float since the FSB also is part of what retains clamshells, so might as well throw the scope on a riser and call it a day. Might even be 1/3rd co-witness actually.
I see nothing wrong with this setup, personally.
