Making this modification permanent would be a mistake, as it would also reduce the intake of ambient light in darkness, therefore reducing the soldier's night vision capacity."On the plains of hesitation, bleach the bones of countless millions, who on the very dawn of victory, laid down to rest, and in resting died.

No.We are on about putting a strip of tape over the fibre optic on top of the ACOG to reduce the amount of ambient light it draws in during direct/bright sunlight conditions.Too much light can cause a blurring of the crosshairs/POA. By putting a strip of tape over the F.O and peeling it back the firer can control how much light enters the sight.The first time i zeroed mine it was a very bright day.By leaving a fingernails length of the F.O exposed I had a much better defined POA."Let us be clear about three facts. First, all battles and all wars are won in the end by the infantryman. Secondly, the infantryman always bears the brunt. His casualties are heavier, he suffers greater extremes of discomfort and fatigue than the other arms. Thirdly, the art of the infantryman is less stereotyped and far harder to acquire in modern war than that of any other arm." ------- Field Marshall Wavell, April 1945.

are we on full issue now for Mod14's to the right people or is it still on-the-bus-off-the-bus. I note the new 623 has no mention of Mod14's or not, so I presume you will shoot with your own rifle, but how will it work for competition practice as it makes no sense to have different people firing on different sights. Presume Mod 1's for all ?"Are they trying to shoot down the other drone? "

All PDF rifle firers for this years shooting comps must use the MOD 14.We have yet to receive enough of them to kit out the teams(they are due soon AFAIK) so when they arrive the teams will get first dibs.The RDF firers will still use the A1.To complicate matters all troops deploying with the next two overseas trips must be MOD 14 qualified."Let us be clear about three facts.

mixing sight systems is no show stopper and not much of an issue at all.
infact - we had different armies firing the same shoot at the same time but with different weapons with different sight systems and that was grand too.Last edited by RoyalGreenJacket; 22 January 2015, 19:53.
