Thank you, Rob:  Hi, Love the podcast!!  Perhaps I've missed it. Have you discussed the pros & cons of having vs not having the A-frame front sight? Do custom AR builders still use the A-frame front sight? Also, have you discussed......do I really need a piston driven AR? Have ya done a piston show?  Thanks.....Tom:  Really enjoy the podcast, and look forward to it each week. Before I forget, please enter me in the contest for the new Otis Ripcord. My question is in regard the the Magpul PMAG. I have noticed that they no longer come with the dustcover, as do previous iterations. Is this proof that the feed lips are strong enough to function without protection, or primarily a cost savings for Magpul? I notice that the dust covers are available as a separate option, would I want some for long term storage on a loaded magazine Thanks in advance for your answer, and please keep up the good work.  thanks Craig:  Hey Guys.  long time listener. First time writing in. After listening to the hunting episode. I was thinking. Scary as it is. Thanks to you guys, I built a couple of ARs in the last year or so. And one was a 300 blackout. What do you guys think about hunting , whitetail deer, with a 300 blackout. I read a bunch of threads on forums. Just wanted to know what you thought. Any input would be great. Thanks. O and could you ever do a daily podcast. Joke. I love the show. And can't wait for the next episode. Could you enter me in the Otis giveaway too. Thanks  David D:  Hi Reed and Tony,
