Didn't seem to be an issue for the officer.

Dude I would be legit angry to find out my PD was wasting my tax dollars on $600 meme mounts.

Meh.

Supported with truck
Optics
Only 180 yards

Were it off hand with iron sights it might be worth noting.

Aren't tall mounted red dot's a new trend?

I'm sure I've seen a YouTube or two talking about them?

Don't you have to have the 'sculpted style' mount to be cool?

Nice shot. Yes, it was assisted with optics. But you still have to line up the rifle, and be accountable if you miss. Very doable, with a lot of range practice.

I’m a little torn,
the bad guy is down…good
great shot…..good

he couldn’t get closer for a more certain shot? Lots of things between them, easy shot to miss and take the chance of where the round goes.

regardless, good outcome

Not taking anything away from the officer, I just never noticed a sight that tall.

If you have a high cheek weld...

A little part of me was hoping he used his sidearm.

GBRS hydramount.

It’s meant for heads up style shooting…mainly CQB type scenarios.

That was a damn fine warning shot. Good on that officer's marksmanship.

Thank you. I think it would take some getting used to, but it, obviously, works.

No problem. If you are in that line of work, it has some merit for sure.

Several aftermarket cheek risers out there that people are running with it too.

A 2 moa dot at 180 yards is a pretty good poke. Don’t think he had any magnification either.

Like “just another day at the office. Let’s go home and have dinner.”

If he knows his skills, he knows he can make that shot faster than closing the distance.

So if you know for a fact you will not miss, that distant shot NOW is 100% better than a closer shot later. Especially when you consider while closing the distance he or somebody else could catch a round in the meantime.
