Hey everyone,
Havn't posted in a while. I'm currently deployed in Afghanistan and have ordered some goods for my M1A for when I'm home on leave.
As it stands its a SA M1A standard, with a Sadlak Industries Airborne Scope Mount, Recoil Buffer, a Counter Sniper 4x16 scope (got it from a friend for little money when i was stationed in Benning), and a Harris Bi-Pod.
I have ordered a JA-1000 stock with all the bells and whistles on it, and am going to order the Sadlak Industries magazine release and operating rod, and the Smith Enterprises bolt release thing.
My question is that with the scope I have on there now it is ok...but isn't holding its zero all that well. I'm looking to spend somewhere around 500$ on a scope. All I'm use to in the Army is hi-end stuff like our Leupold MK4s, ACOGs, etc. Will a Nikon 4x16 scope?
I was looking at these

How will they stand up to the recoil of the 7.62? I don't want to buy something and have it be worthless in a few years...if thats the case, I'll just save up for a leupold and buy that instead.
Thanks guys!
