Hey,

I am thinking of replacing my Aimpoint red-dot style scope with something more magnifying. I was hoping someone could give me some guidance to what I could look into.



Budget is $50.00 - $100.00

nothing is really acceptable in a magnification scope in that price range... it'll be shitty with a razor thin eye relief.

Thanks for the details, what would you suggest... if it's truly worth it, I would be willing to increase the budget. Just needed to start somewhere. Thanks again!

if you're looking for an all in scope check out a store like lebaron or sail for a reasonable real steel optic.

If you want something like an acog or an eotech/magnifier you're going to be out of luck.

some UTG or NCstar scopes are good enough to be used on real steel at just a bit more than your budget. Those are the ones you'll have to research yourself, I only browsed those in passing and don't remember much about them.

If you can't try it yourself, then it'd be best not to waste your money if you're dealing with magnification.

edit: beat me to it... :P
