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.

    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

          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.

            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.

            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.
