M110 optic history

I don’t remember an exact year or branch. I thought the M110 had the Leupold Mark 4 LR/T 3.5-10x40 with TMR reticle.

@sinister might be a better source.
The US Army fielded M110 with the Leupold M3LR as specified in MIL-PRF-32316 (AR) w/AMENDMENT 1, 5 October 2009 (superseding 7 October 2008).

People confuse the KAC M110 (Army contract) with the USSOCOM SR-25 (1993-2000) and Mark 11 (fielded in 2000).

M110 users might have US Army tapes on their uniform jackets but there were two buyers -- the Navy (with SOCOM-provided money for US Commandos) and Mother Army (for Active, Guard, and Reserve Soldiers).

Two different and distinct customers and contracts, both with different contract acceptance specs.

You get two M110s per SFODA because the Army is bound (by law) to provide Army-common equipment to a slotted sniper. An SF Soldier or Ranger might also have a Mark 11 as well, with an M110A3 (6.5 Creedmoor) upper.

I’ve only eaten a small sliver of one, once. And only because my buddy grew them and brought one to work. I knew what I was getting into and I knew it was going to suck. It did and I’m never(most likely) doing it again. Just before your face melts off they do taste really good though
I’ve considered growing them but then again I have; cut up serranos, washed my hands 2-3 times, and then still regretted the decision to take a leak…

An old warhorse rides again:

A Colt M1877 'Lightning' revolver built in 1902 chambered in .38 Long Colt and exhibiting major rust and pitting from being stored inside it's leather holster for decades is restored back into operating condition.

In the black powder and 1911 shooting circles, it is well documented that blued steel and leather holsters do NOT mix when it comes to long term security and upkeep of conditions. Genuine leather holsters have a tendency to wick ambient moisture out of the air where the accumulated water droplets will then interact with the firearm stored inside in a negative fashion. When stored for long periods of time, it is common wisdom now to store guns and holsters/gun socks and sleeves separately inside a moisture proof display and transport case with a few fresh silica gel packs tossed in and rotated as needed for the best reliability.

Same reason you’re retarded, lack of blood flow
Lack of blood flow does not cause retardation. That comment doesn't actually make sense. It's like you were trying to hurl an insult at someone who was not even attacking you and for no reason.

I am actually on the Autism spectrum. Autism is also NOT caused by lack of blood flow. Lack of blood flow can have adverse effects to babies, in the womb it can cause serious complications like premature birth but not retardation.

It appeared to me that the person who took the picture was trying to show off that they had a Rolex but is it really showing off if you bought it used and it did not come with enough links to fit properly? I attempted to make light of that and it would seem I failed to make you laugh.

Mike you have my sincerest apology.
