The scope mount can be tuned and the rail one is not adjustable. If the bubble is off slightly from the marks then just remember the position. I have 2 on mine and they don’t match exactly but I know when its level from practice and a Quick glance.

I’m hoping I am still on the list. When I ordered my AAA from Tony I chose to pay in full up front. When he cashed the money order, that was a binding contract and he delivered everything I could have expected. If for some reason I’m no longer on the list, I will be bumbed but I’ll get over it.

Water slows everything down fast, so a solid projectile would be the optimum spear. I’m sure it could be done on an Airforce platform.
