It also wears a Sight Mark red dot laser in front of the March scope.

He also said that he had to pay the freight from Finland to the U.S. where in the past he didn’t have to pay that freight. He is telling me that the price is $1400 and $50 for shipping and handling.

All they had were some swings on the side of the building. I asked two guys working the Estonia Pavillion if they have heard of Edwaurd or the Rdgun and they hadn’t. I figured Ed would be a national hero or something.

Question. Does the PVS 14 attach directly to your scope? With an adapter, or does it just screw directly onto the scope threads? – Or does it just butt up against the scope?
