Aimpoint optics are very popular in USA. Civilian, police, and military use them. You can't go wrong with them. They are pretty much indestructible with a continuous (always on on normal setting) battle life between 5-7 years depending on model. Their micro series are very popular due to being...

It's not the dovetail that the problem. It the entire system. There are many type of AK 1913 cover rail system in the market. All of them cannot hold zero even if their advertisement say otherwise. That because the slightest movement however small will shift the zero. The side mount rail is...

Good for civilian uses bad for military/duty uses. The auto shut down is not a feature it is a liability. You do not want your optic to shut down without you knowing it. You want your optics to be always on. Always, I can't stress that enough because you don't know when your enemy going to...

It's not the gunsmiths fault, it's the AK. AK style covers are really really bad for mounting optics. In the previous post the only parts of the AK that is stable enough to mount the optic is the rear iron sight or side rails (Soviet era AK74, Dragunov, etc ). Any movement however small it is is...

The scope is absolute useless and it is base 100% on how high it is mounted. Do not buy optics design to mount high.

Without a doubt optics increase accuracy. IIRC up to 80% increase in a US military study. The study was over six years or so and I lost the link to the report. Good optics can cost 3 times or more then the rifle. It's not cheap. Most people don't realize only a few militaries can equips their...

Placing the close combat sights (micro reflex, micro red dot, or iron sight) at 45 degree while the telescope at normal place. This type of setup is very poplar in civilian sector and a lot of US military troops starting to use it...

I've been away due to the holiday season in the USA. Very busy for the last few weeks. While I still have some time, I post as much as I can. Anyway the USA is moving away from Iron Sights. If you look closely at recent US Spec Ops pictures, some of them lack iron sights or BUIS (back up...
