Question: Are APC-308's known to be hard on optics like the FN SCAR? Only reason I ask, the two guns are notionally kind of similar in build, and I was curious if anyone knew whether I need to be careful about what kind of scope I mounted. In particular, I've got an old Leupold HAMR with a Deltapoint on top that I love, and think it would be a good match for my 16 inch APC-308, but because the HAMR is discontinued and quite rare, I don't want to bash the scope to death with a rifle that's going to put a lot of wear on it.

Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks!

Hey all, I have an issue right now with a new TD-07 kit that I gifted my wife for her birthday. I have a couple little cats at home that like to chew things, especially cables, and having lost enough headphone and USB cables to these little furdemons, I need a little help finding a more durable cable that I can leave on the kit long term. I know I can use cable harnesses, zip ties and velcro to hold everything as close as possible to the kit, but I was curious if anyone made a braided or twisted cable that was tougher than the standard trigger cables? Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone, I need a little help... I've got an old pair of vintage Juliets from when I used to do a lot of trail biking. TL;DR: I took a massive spill on a bike one summer and cracked the lenses, scraped the side of the glasses all up, and destroyed the ear and nose socks... basically totaled the glasses. At the time, they weren't all that valuable and I bought another pair because they were available at the time, but I lost those at a trade show a few years back... since then it seems that Juliets are now achieving icon status, and I miss wearing mine, but I can't seem to find another new pair to buy at a reasonable price. I'd like to try to find a way to repair my old ones, but I don't have spare parts.

The beat up frames actually look pretty cool, it's real battle scars, but I need the silicone socks and new lenses... and I'm wondering if anyone offers a repair or refit service for them? Figured I'd ask around, see if anyone knew where to start. Thanks in advance!

I've been looking for a heavier double rider for cooler months, and noticed that Cockpit USA now makes the Road Warrior since the last time I looked at their site. Do any of y'all have one of these?

Issue I'm running into: I'm 6 foot 2, about 185lbs. I'm in good shape, athletic build but not necessarily a body builder. I wear a large tee shirt size, and a large jacket in most brands. Cockpit USA says, according to their fit picker on their site, that I'm a size Small on this jacket, which is absolutely bizarre to me since I'm never a small... hence why I'm asking.

Anyone have experience with these? Anyone have any other recommendations for a tall-guy double rider that has an optional shearling collar? Don't mind spending some money on it, but I'd really like it to be durable and high quality. Horsehide would be awesome, but open to other options.
