Here’s a few basic suggestions for one inch Weaver style rings for scopes with 40mm objective lenses:
Leupold Rifleman #55860. Good all-purpose alloy rings at a very reasonable price.
Leupold Cross Slot rings #49965 . Very good looking and sturdy steel rings in gloss only.

We sell a lot of Trijicon night sights. These replace the iron sights on your firearm, mostly pistols. Night sights have small spheres of radioactive material in them that glow with absolutely no ambient light whatsoever.

The scope uses a 3volt battery and the specifications list it as being able to range a deer at …

An unnamed commander from Seal Team Seven called for more Docters. It has become the quick target acquisition scope of choice for many operators in Iraq. It’s light, durable, small, and accurate. The mounts are also available. Optics Planet has an exclusive deal with Docter USA to offer their red dot sights on the internet. Even the ACOG mounts are available. Mounting a Docter on a carry handle of your black gun doesn’t change the weight or handling characteristics of your gun, and a lot of 6.8s are using them overseas, even in conjunction with their ACOGs.

Uncle Mike’s products are now available through Optics Planet. I’m wearing an Uncle Mike’s belt today with my Navy dungarees for veteran’s day. Their products have been a standard for many years, and the Uncle Mike’s name now includes Hoppe’s, Butler Creek, Stoney Point, and Blackwater tactical gear.
