They as good as ended his career with that. You don’t think every sailor hasn’t already heard or will hear at his next command that he is so ignorant he can’t even fire a rifle right? If he’s that incompetent they shouldn’t have let it get so far that he got a command in the first place. He’s either so incompetent that he can’t do basic sailors tasks OR they made up a reason to fire a sailor who made a non critical mistake. Do we publicize IN PRINT when an army infantry NCO has a negligent discharge at clearing barrel? Maybe locally, but it doesn’t mean he is completely unfit to lead men to war.

Haha I think that could also be it.

This is a staged photo and that mag looks full so he probably just pulled it up quickly on command and started firing. Which would also explain his bad stock placement. He rushed for this photo op because everyone likes to look like a bad ass especially when there are cameras around.

Yep, and I agree an 11b or equivalent who doesn’t know his ass from the front of the sight isn’t fit for duty, but this guy is a naval officer and was probably just stoked to look cooler than normal, and someone could have just as easily been playing a joke on him to see if he would notice. We play pranks on people all the time asking for PRC-E7, or grid squares, or blinker fluid.

I doubt it’s true it’s the reason he was relieved of command, but to even think it was a last straw is crazy because if he was really that bad of a leader they wouldn’t need to use something as trivial like just a funny picture to some among the gun owner’s who know what they are even looking at.

US Army Aviation and two deployments with the AF. I was never even issued an optic as we only had a handful per company. Can’t touch what Uncle Sugar doesn’t allocate. The only time I touched a weapon that wasn’t a helicopter was during annual qualifications.

Nothing happened, and nothing could have happened other than him missing a practice target by a mile. It doesn’t even show him aiming at something in particular, just looking down the barrel. Ammo can kill you, not having a working optic is not a safety issue no matter what direction it’s installed. Did he check the chamber to see if there was a round? Did he flag any other sailors? Did he keep his weapon pointed down range? Every single person around him let him shoot the weapon like that, they obviously didn’t feel too unsafe to be around him. None of them even seemed to noticed it was on backwards either. How can you tell it’s backwards from this picture of him?

Is anyone replying in this thread a US military armorer? I’d love to know who gave him the weapon with the sight installed backwards. I was never allowed to touch an installed optic other than to sight it in. I was never in the US Navy, but in all my training I never got a class on anything but an iron sight for the M16, M4, and M9. How would someone who isn’t a master at arms and probably qualifies on a weapon once, maybe twice a year going to know that someone else installed the sight on his weapon backwards? You don’t even know that it was his issued weapon and not someone else’s who also shot with it backwards.

Personally, I love this for ALL of them.

Thoughts and prayers. Did you not get yours?

Too bad, so sad :(

I did give him some slack. I emailed him dec 11 and he answered back immediately for several replies. I gave him a week for the troubleshooting with no reply, and then I gave him 5 days after I emailed for a refund with no reply before I ever posted on here. I don’t understand why people are so defensive. I wasn’t bashing the guy or anything, I’m more upset that I’m out $17 than not being able to use an app that is nothing special in a sea of apps.

I’m very glad that you’re happy with your purchase.

I don’t have any problem showing proof I have purchased Sync Pro.

I attempted to request support first and received a quick initial reply about my problem. Never got an update so I requested a refund in the same email chain and still haven’t heard back. I then went through the Google Play refund process and they said they won’t refund me either.

So I’m just out my money. No big deal, and I moved on. I just posted so if someone was looking into paying what I think is a ridiculous price for a year of ad free and some features, there was some good feedback.

I made sure it was done under the right Google account.

Again, not a troubleshooting thread. The “PSA” was that I spent $17 on an app and no longer have access to that service. I can’t access the features of sync pro. I contacted the developer to either fix my problem or when they couldn’t do that get a refund. I paid for a year and didn’t even get 6 months of use.

Thanks for the troubleshooting

Good to know

Thanks! I’m really enjoying it.

I appreciate the troubleshooting. Unless it was a pre selected option I wouldn’t have enabled that in any version.

I certainly don’t disagree that it might help someone else.

This post wasn’t meant to try and troubleshoot though. I attempted to go through the developer and Google to get something fixed and neither helped so I made a public post in the community to try and make others aware that they may not get what they paid for or support to fix issues.
