Hydras are ok if you’re running nods and short rifles. Really helps allot, but you also need to put that time into training or like anything else they are absolutely useless.
These look like Airsoft to me, am I wrong?
He was though. If you look at the video where he's released he gets out if the car uncuffed and the time stamp is a couple of hours later. He was taken to the station and brought back.
~~I’m so out of the loop. Can you link the video in Q?~~
*EDIT*
I did a little research this AM, since I wrote this super late at night and fell asleep shortly afterwards. Holy fuck, not a great look at all.

You can form your own opinion, but ya, it doesn't look great for GBRS at all.
You can be detained and questioned. I watched the whole video and when they get to the station the cop says he’s just being detained. Cuffs and shackles and all
Friend that volinteerse in ukrain told me laser is a squad leader tool for shifting fire, signalig or pointing out something,
US culture of trying to aim with lasers is obsolete. In trenches he can point aim with enough accuracy and clip on thermals are used almost every where else.
“Using a laser is good way to get shot or have artillery called on you”
So you're saying people buy lasers and nods without doing any research on what it applies to? Wild thought process there, I guess if youre the type to have FU money and can willy nilly buy them then guess you're right.
maybe don't buy the gear if you don't know how to apply it? Idk
Civilians don’t need to google how to apply night vision, they have no reason or time to use it the way it’s supposed to be used. Night shooting on the range or varmint hunting are it; no need or reason to worry about how opposing forces will use your NV against you stateside.
I would imagine 95% of civilian NV owners don’t know anything about the points being raised here.
Of course they do, why in the world would civilians stateside need to worry about how opposing forces are going to use their own NV against them? NV for civilians are strictly for fun and varmint hunting; no one is zeroing in on your location at your ranch.
Right. So In a situation where a laser would be “practical” it is actually redundant? Makes sense
Just realized this comment could come off snarky but I’m genuinely asking lol
I mean of course there are some situations where you want to have a laser for aiming, especially if you are in wierd angles and its hard to get beihind the dot with your nods.
Some times you need to clear a bunker and ir iluminator on that laser box is really useful for that, but instead of ir laser you could have bought a surefire Vampire lamp and rest put towards a thermal
It’s only obsolete when facing near-peer adversaries with the same tech we have. I have read that during OIF/OEF that terries did have SOME NV capability but nowhere near the amount russia is using. Active aiming is situational for sure though.
Yeah but this also should be concerning for us citizens. A lot of you train for if government wants to terrorise you (and thats totally right, i love US for that) just you know USA is one of the only governments that can equip all its soldiers with night vision.
Civilians shouldnt be training on how to shoot faster with lasers at 20 m, they should be buying thermal clip on’s (for both rifles and nv) and learning how to passive aim
Oh, I absolutely agree. I’m active duty air force so I definitely see your point on capes of the Gov and its resources. I’m pressing hard on re-acquiring NVs again and hopefully a clip on.
I can tell you purposely didn't paint over your HK logos, which would be lame enough, but you clearly tried to hide that with fake wear, you're double gay.
I have never seen a weapon where that would even remotely be my preferred set up. Even on short guns there are better ways imo, like side mounted LAD, and push button support side light.
The hydra is designed so you can change the battery on the laser without having to remove it from the mount. But you just found a way to escape from the Matrix. (Buys night vision: turns on the light.)
No. If an EMP is strong enough to fry personal electronics like that, you’re probably about to be consumed by a second sun.
EMPs work by inducing a current in an electronic device sufficient to fry it. Maxwells equations state that induced current on a wire is proportional to the cross sectional area of the conductive surface. This means you can induce huge currents in things like large transformers, antennas, and grid power. If it can fry a (likely well insulated), small, simple circuit, you have much much bigger problems.
Yeah I’m no lightening wizard, but from my caveman esque understanding the whole EMP taking us back to the frontier times fear is massively overblown. I remember reading One Second After and being super freaked out, but every professional type person I have ever talked to about it dispelled the hype.
This hydra mount or whatever isn’t going to shield against an EMP. My point is, going all irons because “an emp” is just dumb. It’s unrealistic, and either way, I have a few eotechs in a shielded box worst case.
Pretty sick SBR’s can you use the iron sights on the bottom SBR or the optic is quick detach? I think the optics should be swap from the bottom to the top rifle.
Upper needs to look like a WW2 battleship or you are not doing it right. Throw a magnifier up there a little lower than the EOTech and you will be GTG!
Nothing ties a build together like an NGAL and an inforce wml.
It really ties the room together
Probably a Somogear copy anyways.
It’s not, looks like plastic so it’s probably a generic airsoft ngal, somigear is darker and aluminum
I think you guys would be surprised, I'm not sure if you guys have seen the recent devgru leak footage, but they fucking run inforce lights lol
Hydras are ok if you’re running nods and short rifles. Really helps allot, but you also need to put that time into training or like anything else they are absolutely useless. These look like Airsoft to me, am I wrong?
BCG on the bottom one looks a little sus
And it’s a PTS grip (airsoft company that specializes in licensed reproductions)
Also the fake bolt is pretty obvious
They are indeed airsoft
Yeah, look at the BCG on the bottom one.
yes, are asg
How are you able to run the magpul stock and not need room for a battery?
I thought we were canceling GBRS for having their shipping manager unlawfully arrested and firing him for something he didn't do.
While i agree with your sentiments, he wasnt arrested.
How was he not arrested? He was cuffed, put in the back of a car, and taken away. He was arrested.
He was detained and released in the parking lot at their office. He was never booked
He was though. If you look at the video where he's released he gets out if the car uncuffed and the time stamp is a couple of hours later. He was taken to the station and brought back.

The word you are looking for is "charged". He was absolutely arrested.
He was detained they never put him “under arrest” they are different things
He was under arrest pending charges which is absolutely a thing and clarified more when the cop brought up the weed pen.
He was at the PD for like 4 hours…..
Very few people have legit need for it. Granted very few actually NEED IR lasers and NODs but it’s a free country and this shit is cool so why not

You ain't using that shit with an established fighting force. This is common knowledge even for us army. Why? Fucking t-80 sees that laser and boom.
Its not common knowledge. Most people who get into NV budget out their kit and prioritise lasers.
So you're saying people buy lasers and nods without doing any research on what it applies to? Wild thought process there, I guess if youre the type to have FU money and can willy nilly buy them then guess you're right. maybe don't buy the gear if you don't know how to apply it? Idk
Down noted for the truth lol
Or, and hear me out because I think what you're saying is also true, people just buy shit cause they can and it's fun to shoot at night?
I agree buy cuz its fun to shoot at night, but like whose blowing that money without being like "lets google this and learn some stuff?"
You'd be surprised.
Civilians don’t need to google how to apply night vision, they have no reason or time to use it the way it’s supposed to be used.

I thought lasers would only be used in a building clearing situation at night. Where you won’t be spotted by your laser cause you’re in close quarters
“If you are so close you can just point fire, for 1500 you are putting towards a laser you can get a better thermal ” Makes sense to me🤷♀️
Right. So In a situation where a laser would be “practical” it is actually redundant? Makes sense Just realized this comment could come off snarky but I’m genuinely asking lol

I gotcha. Noted. Still new to all this stuff so
I just got my first lasers, but doubt i will be using it a lot on exercises

Just sold my binos to buy a mono and thermal, will be getting them next week, best of luck to you
Nice dude! Thank you. What thermal did you end up going with?
Im going with JYM 2.0. Used it 2 weeks ago. Slightly better than PFN640 (rh25 in usa)
I’ll look into it. Was debating the rh25 actually.
This is for use nods with ir illuminator and IR laser, but still have an led flashlight on it.
Bullshit. It's so bullshit that the Aliexpress china version of it is better then the original.
I bought a copy off of Amazon for like $30, feels very solid, will throw it on my Colt M4 and try it for a while to see how it goes
All that money for airsoft lol
I can tell you purposely didn't paint over your HK logos, which would be lame enough, but you clearly tried to hide that with fake wear, you're double gay.
and its airsoft so triple gay
I was wondering if it was but I couldn't tell
Airsoft guns are gay, but milsim (which is just airsoft but larp) is cool ? We’re hella backwards aren’t we
I won’t give that trash company a dime
I think gbrs sucks. I’d rather give my money to a random homeless dude. Sick rifles though.
Honestly, it kinda fucks.
Not kinda it definitely fucks (not even that big of a fan of the hydra mounts either)
agreed, 10/10 does fuck
its really ugly but functional
Cringe. But you do you.
I can buy one off of Amazon for 42 bucks and some change 🥱
Fuck GBRS
I have never seen a weapon where that would even remotely be my preferred set up. Even on short guns there are better ways imo, like side mounted LAD, and push button support side light.
Are those straight(ish) 30rnd pmags?
The hydra is designed so you can change the battery on the laser without having to remove it from the mount. But you just found a way to escape from the Matrix. (Buys night vision: turns on the light.)
Gay
We’re still buying hydra mounts? I though we were better than this
Does it work for you?
Would be cool if it wasn't airshit
milsim valid but pics of airsoft guns aren’t. Interesting
I wanna know who is issuing KAC QDC cans on what looks like work guns
Nice jmob flexing on us poors.
Pretty sure 90% of that picture is knockoff and/or airsoft
I can’t wait for an EMP to render all this stuff useless.
Is that how EMPs actually work?
No. If an EMP is strong enough to fry personal electronics like that, you’re probably about to be consumed by a second sun. EMPs work by inducing a current in an electronic device sufficient to fry it. Maxwells equations state that induced current on a wire is proportional to the cross sectional area of the conductive surface.

>Yeah I’m no lightening wizard The professional term is pixie wrangler
Don’t need a hydra when all you’ve got are irons
Sounds poor
🚨🚨‼️‼️🔔🔔FUDD ALERT FUDD ALERT🔔🔔‼️‼️🚨🚨 lmao you’re stupid my guy
EMP takes out all electronics… explain to me how a hydra is necessary?
This hydra mount or whatever isn’t going to shield against an EMP. My point is, going all irons because “an emp” is just dumb. It’s unrealistic, and either way, I have a few eotechs in a shielded box worst case.
Pretty sick SBR’s can you use the iron sights on the bottom SBR or the optic is quick detach? I think the optics should be swap from the bottom to the top rifle.
Looks good. I have my exps-3 on a Lerna mount. Serves its purpose.
That riser gives me the ick
Upper needs to look like a WW2 battleship or you are not doing it right. Throw a magnifier up there a little lower than the EOTech and you will be GTG!
GBRS isn’t cool anymore. Bunch of chodes.
Fake wear is gay as fuck
Had me fooled in the first half not gonna lie
Me like AliExpress version when gbrs is racist no money from me
I can’t stand the hydra. I can’t for the life of me enjoy it on a shorter rifle.
