Need to vent

So I ran into an old highschool buddy (that is apparently well knowledgeable on ALL things firearm related). We start talking "M16's" (which somehow branched off of the fact that he was unsure of what I meant by ar15) and he has several ..... Supposedly. Somehow we get on the topic of EOTech, in which we were talking prices and he informs me that my "connections" must be bad. That any model EOTech could be had for <$300 and the magnifier being only another $120. I inform him he must be purchasing Chinese knock-offs, then he goes into a rant of personally field testing EOTechs in Afghanistan personally and that he has the hookup. Oh and they even send him a free lifetime warranty.....

FYI, he recommends ACOG's so you don't have to purchase an additional magnifier.

Id bet he can hit a quarter at 250 yards with iron sights too!

You should be grateful it sounds like you have a sweet hook-up on cheap optics.

Yeah, and while you're at it, you should also take him up on his offer to make your AR into a 'sheen gun by filing down your firing pin for cheap...

Jumping Jimminy! He can do that too??? I gotta meet this cat!

I'll bet his CCW is a 50 cal Desert Eagle and he squirrel hunts with 50BMG too.

and he squirrel hunts with 50BMG too.

Yes, but only at distances greater than 1000 yards while wearing his authentic ghillie suit that was given to him by Carlos Hathcock himself...

Don't let him fool you though, he can only get "headshots" on the squirrels out to 1500 meters...

I bet he is also a vietnam sniper, green beret, ranger, airborne, scuba and liar 1st Class.

Actually as of a minute ago its 1,200 yards. He is sponsored by EOTech, Trijicon, Aimpoint, and Leupold. His entire garage is a arsenal, and when I laughed he gave me his address verbally and told me to come check it out. He must be on this forum because he just called me, and then texted me "if u have t bull**** loose my number".....
