I bought the scope secondhand but was told the warranty would not have been good anyway. Of course I could have lied, darn it.
ya never know...ze germans were very crafty back then
Icecube,An AR15 in 5.56 has a large recoil velocity, but low recoil energy. It's not really something to worry about. A well-designed LED flashlight should be able to take 300 Win Mag (moderate recoil velocity, heavy recoil energy).
If I was mounting a weaponlight permanently I would therefore buy a specifically made and dedicated light.
I have a Surefire weapon light that is part of a Surefire forearm on a Benelli M1 Super 90 combat shotgun. It originally came with 2 cr123 batteries in a sleeve, but when they were drained I thought I'd replace them with a pair of cr123 batteries. It works, but after you've shot a box or two of shells the batteries are dented from the recoil.
I've shot plenty of ARs and I was never aware they had any recoil
SF sells pairs of 123As shrink-wrapped together.
