I started thinking about all the toys one could put on their SG, and what I started with in my head is really starting to become more and more stripped down. The one I have on order has the tri-rail forend, so there is the ability to put something left, right, and a full rail on the underbelly.
And, lets face it, my SG is ON ORDER. I don't even have in in my possesion yet, nor have I even pulled the trigger and sent as much as a bad vibe down range with it. everything I am thinking about could change the second I hold it, and better still fire it.
At this point, I want to take it to the range, fire all kinds of different ammo thruogh it so I know what to expect, and become farmiliar with it. I would love to see myself doing the 200 yard gong hits *nods head to oli* and hitting exactly what I intend no matter what the distance.
The biggest question becomes, just because you can, should you? I know there is a lot of tacticool stuff out there and I am subject to it, but I also want functionality as well as form. I would preferably grab my pistol for HD and leave the SG for defending the safe room.
I would like some form of a light, but I would want to have the lens be red or green to preserve night vision without blinding myself as well as my target. I would want a type of momentary switch to make it only for MY advantage. If I need to look around, I will use a hand held model so I am not pointing th SG at things I don't plan to put holes into.
I would like a green laser, but I have to wonder how useful one is in reality. My thought was that it would be more useful for distance than close quarters to make it easier to acquire a target. The other idea is the phycological advantage. If there is a dot on you, message received.
I have looked at handles, and I have to admit, I am not prone to put one on. Looks good in hollywood, but I see it being cumbersome. If you use one, what are your feelings on it?
I can say without hesitation, that I intend to put a M9 bayonet on it, or at least have one I can.
I purposely bought the model with the ghost ring sights, so I am not thinking about scopes, or laser dot sights, but I assume they have their place. I would rather get used to low tech iron sights as a failsafe backup and think about better technical advantages later.
That is a LOT to juggle, but lets see what you guys have to offer.
