GOA News] GOA is Taking the ATF to Court … Again

The ATF has Weaponized Its Zero Tolerance Policy for FFLs If the ATF drives thousands of gun stores out of business all around the country, you won’t have anywhere to purchase new firearms. This is what ATF’s “Zero Tolerance” program is all about – it’s aimed at making it impossible for millions of gun owners to easily purchase guns.

Magnifier and Red Dot Combos


Optics    8 Replies

Emptymag, 07-17-2023, 10:02 PM

I have been wanting to equip a rifle or two with a magnified optic for a while now.
A little while back I picked up a cheapo 1-4x20mm LPVO to try out and I like it - probably going to upgrade to a better brand at some point.
I have never handled/used a rife with a magnifier and I wasn't sure I would like it - even after watching a ton of videos I just wasn't sure, and I don't have the money to throw away on something that may not work out.
Why not try a budget magnifier the way I did with the LPVO? I started looking around some more. I was "this close" to buying the blem/open box versions on Monstrum's website when I saw that they were having a good deal on the combo for Prime day on Amazon. For $110 I got a brand new/unopened set and ended up paying just $8 more, and I get the lifetime warranty vs the 1 year warranty on the blems.

I put the set on my 7.62x39 carbine. The lightweight, one-piece polymer lower/stock's weight savings are now negated by the chunky 3x magnifier.
