Steve has never not known guns. Before motorcycles, money, or girls, they have always been part of his life. He was tenured as General Manager of one of the country's largest gun stores and ranges, a buyer in a big box outdoor sporting goods store, and is currently OpticsPlanet's Director of Product Intelligence. He was a US Navy nuclear gunners mate, a private investigator, and is an NRA certified instructor in ten categories, as well as an Illinois CCW instructor. He shoots competitively and has hunted from Alaska to Africa. He thoroughly loves life with his beloved wife, Shirley, and together they live with their three wildish dogs Tinker, TranRek, and Crash Almighty. He is a stubborn stage 4 cancer survivor and isn't ready to cash in his chips yet.

6. Dual Dovetails (DD) Scope Mounting Systems

Dual dovetail bases are the same as Redfield / Leupold style, but instead of the windage screws holding the rear ring to the base, they are omitted, and instead, the rear ring is turned in, just like the front. This does not offer the extra windage adjustments that the standard bases offer, but it is hardly ever of major importance, and the trade-off of a more securely installed ring is certainly worth the trade.
