however none really worth it at UNcompany or Ehobby?*currentlychecking*

do you people know of other 1.5X and up scopes that can be rail-mounted and not insanely expensive, red dots or not ?

each time I use my AUG with the 1.5X scope I'm amazed at how efficient it is.
I want to mount one on my pistol

please post yer links here, thanks !

Well that last one is a magnifier, so it's not meant to be used alone. You'd need a red dot sight with that, such as an EOTech or Aimpoint (CompM2/4 series are best for this).

Pistol optic, eh? I think you're into real steel only. You've got to have quite a bit of extended eye relief (the distance your eye can be from the lense) to be able to use it on a pistol properly.

Unless it says hangun scope/optic (or better yet lists the eye relief...rifle scopes will be ~2-4" or so...pistol scopes will be 16-20")...don't just go for what looks like it might work. Two of the items in your first post are rifle scopes...with small eye relief.

Also...you want a pretty large piece of glass....not a little skinny tube (which is cheaper). 20mm is pretty small...and at arms length won't be all that helpful. 26-28mm doesn't sound much bigger...but it makes a difference. I think the largest common ones are 32-36mm?

if you want pistol scope, look no further. i use this on my M14 and its great. Plus, its adjustable, so you can mount it on a gun if you want and have ample level of magnification (canadian site as well):

I use the 2-7x scope. works great and haven't had an issue with it yet.
