That dude from zimbabwe loves the United States and wants to join the airforce and I told him about my time as a Marine. For the record and to settle any and all disputes: we may bicker back and forth about who's more badass, Marines or Army but if you ask anyone from any other nation, particularly shitholes in africa and the ME they know hahahahahaha.... semper fi, gents!

If GOV/MIL/LE have it or access to it I want at very least the ability to have it as well not matter the price point. I am a citizen not a subject.

Gun thots did a comparison between the mawl, the d2 and perst 3. Inn a nut shell, they didn’t think the mawl was worth the money over the d2. The d2 is thiccc, and you can see a glow from the IR illumination led, but only if is directly pointing at you. The perst is full power, and getting it repaired may be very iffy. You cannot export it back to Russia legally so it’s a touchy situation.

Maybe but I see a lot of guys, me included, running the Steiner Otal C and the surefire m600 vampire. I personally use the dual switch cap on the surefire and a pressure pad that activates the light and the laser at the same time. Then if I need to use the light or laser individualy I use the controls on the units themselves. Personally i like having the ability to switch the light from visible to ir. The only downside is the lack of a visible laser for zeroing.
