I didn't pay attention to the sign when walking in, I just assumed that it was still a funco land, especially since it hasn't changed a bit since it had opened many years back.
How come you will talk to me publicly on the forum, but you wont reply to my PM's?

Most of my optics are more expensive then the guns they belong to. My fav optic BY FAR is the trijicon ACOG (various models). Have you thought about getting one of those instead? In my opinion it's by far the best firearm optic on the planet. If you're getting a really high powered scope for a snipe rifle, then the ACOG wont work as well, but for 100-300 yards, an ACOG kicks the crap out of anything!
Outstanding glass, and great technology combined together to make just the best damn optic on earth. What's great about them, on top of how high quality they are, you never have to use batteries due to the fiber optic illuminated reticle... I hate batteries and I love not having to rely on them.
If you haven't already, look into getting an ACOG, there are many different types of magnifications and made for various calibers. For an M4/AR-15 or rifle similar to it, you simply CANNOT beat an ACOG. I never thought I'd love an optic as much as I love ACOGs. You can get them from $700-1,800... Worth every damn penny too. Not only are they GREAT, but they are rugged as hell and will last you forever. You really need to try one before you get anything else, I guarantee that you will be 100% sold after using one. They are THAT great.
ACOG:
Here is the worlds most ideal optic: A Trijicon ACOG with a mini holographic sight mounted to the top (red dot made by Docter).
There are various reticle patters you can get as well as various colors for the illuminated reticle.
A different angle of an ACOG with holo-red dot:
View from the acog, I wish you could see it in real life just so you could understand how clear and brilliant the view is all thanks to its amazing coated glass.
The reticle glows brighter then hell during the day, and stays nice and dim during the night so it doesn't blind you. Don't forget, you will never need batteries so it will ALWAYS be on and work for you, unlike other battery powered sights like EOTechs and Aim points.
This combo is truly the best of both worlds. You have the greatness of an ACOG with the speed of a holosight so you can switch between the two.
The only application that an ACOG isn't ideal for is a long distance sniper/target rifle, something you need a crazy amount of magnification for. For anything 300 yards and under (it even has a bullet drop compensator), the ACOG is where it's at!
I was thinking of selling a couple pistols just to get another one, thats how great they are.

I'll probably be an Accessport
Gotta get the mid-throttle feel better
After that - a set of Enkei Racing RPF1's
And a set of Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec 245/40WR17 tires for STU
It's gonna be awhile

In the Fremont hub right next to Ross... I'm not sure if it's still a funco land, it might be a game stop now, but it used to be a funco land, and they still sell all the same stuff like funco land used to do (used stuff from NES to new used game consoles, to everything else a game stop would have).
