'total annihilation' of North Korea

[woodyz]

Kim's final warning: James Mattis raises threat of 'total annihilation' of North Korea as he reveals President Trump has been briefed on the 'many' military responses available - and hasn't ruled out any of them

Trump has warned that the US could take economic or military action after NK detonated a hydrogen bomb

US President suggested 'stopping all trade with any country doing business with North Korea'

That was likely a veiled threat towards China - which provides 85 per cent of North Korea's imports
Refusing to do business with China would cause huge damage to US firms including Apple
US and South Korean leaders are now discussing 'military measures' to be taken

North Korea detonated hydrogen bomb sparking powerful 6.3 magnitude quake

Blast directly ordered by Kim Jong-Un and was large enough to destroy a city

South Korea launched a ballistic missile exercise late Sunday in response to the nuclear test

I'm thinking an electronic sight/scope on a firearm would be effected/affected. (Sorry every time I write those words I think about an Army engineer major that would always change it when he scrutinized the readiness report I wrote every month for the CG of 1st Armored. But he would change 'the' to 'the' just because he could. And that was 31 years ago. Guess he made an impression of some kind)

The short answer is, maybe.

Holographic sights and Red Dot sights use lasers to work. So, naturally, they should be effected by an EMP.

Many of us are concerned about the real likelyhood of an EMP attack in this country after the pot bellied pig fired off his science project over Japan's airspace this weekend. Anyone care to guess which optic would still function after an EMP hit? I'd think the Trijicon would most likely be to one to keep going because its fiberoptics, tritum dot and no batteries needed.

Co-witness iron sites are always a must on a Saiga, but this topic might be something good to think about before forking out big$$ for one of these scopes. Heck, they may all not work in the end.

Seems like a really GOOD time for folks to learn to use iron sights again?
Even the Acogs only have a limited shelf life, then begin to slowly dim out, and need refurbishment.

I’ve always preferred iron over scope just how I was brought up didn’t have $ for scopes
