Lower 1/3 co-witness (which is what your setup provides) just refers to where your irons will appear in the field-of-view when looking through your optic (in the lower third of your glass), as opposed to “absolute co-witness” wherein your irons will be in the middle of your optic’s field-of-view.
the 1/3 is my preferred setup, and seems to be the more popular of the two - your current setup allows you a less cluttered view when looking through your optic, but still allows you to use the irons if necessary - I personally wouldn’t change a thing.
I was just quoting Mr. Roadking. To be fair, VLTOR’s site says that in the description. I think it’s completely BS. Just another stupid marketing scheme…
ventedda - no worries. it’s funny how one thing leads to another though
roadking actually said that it was designed BY the SEALS, not just designed FOR them.
anyways, it was Navy EOD down in coronado that it was designed for; EODMU-3 at least has them.
Well, not to get into the personal remarks, but MM would know what he’s talking about and Roadking hasn’t had the greatest track record of posts as far as accuracy goes in my book.
I wasn’t being a smart ass, I just made my original post because saying it was designed for/by the SEALs was non-sense. My previous post was because I have read many threads where you have asked questions about products, but at the same time posting in other threads about how one is much better than others and which one you would prefer, information you most likely learned in the thread you started asking similar questions. Simple facts, the link also says nothing about the SEALs, it does say it was under contract with the US Navy though, SEALs was an assumption unless you had a link to back up the SEALs claim.
I havent posted on this thread for months, I learned to sit back and listen and learn and speek only from experience, I do have experience in the CASV-EL because i have one on my M4 and read alot about them before spending the money on buying one. I am only speeking for what i have learned and have had experience with. Again I do not post on this site anymore unless i have hands on experience. As far as seals i did read somewere it was desined for the seals cant remember were, If i find it i will be sure to post it.
