Bought all premium components then stuck a piece of shit scope on there. Interesting.

Don't be so tuff on the guy. Maybe he's just starting out.
Fact is though....... you caught me so off guard with that comment that I spit the soda I was sipping on across the room 🫠 lol

You aren't wrong though

Haha, I see what you're saying. It's like getting all the top-tier gear and then throwing on something that doesn’t quite match the quality. I guess it’s all about finding the right balance, but yeah, it can be frustrating when a high-end setup is let down by one weak link! Just like a TEAM is only as strong as it's weakest person.

But yes, I posted it just to see what comments I’d get! Arken is definitely solid for the price—it’s a good value scope for what you pay. But you’re right, it’s nowhere near Tier I or II territory. I’m running a Vortex GEN III 6X36x56 MRAD on it now, which is like a Tier 1.5 scope.

Looks good but one question. Why is the scope so far forward. I have a few of the same chassis set up and had the same scope and its cousin the DNT and none needed to be that far forward.
