Here's a question for the guys who have a clue on optics.
The range that is the most convenient for me to shoot my Bushmaster Shorty AK at requires shooters to use the ranges' targets. These targets are about 10" and graduated in 1 inch increments. Obviously targets for use w/a scope. At 100 yds, I can barely make out the target and what I can see, my front sight about covers up.
I need a scope.
I don't want to scope my Shorty AK, that would be going against my idea of what a carbine rifle is all about, but since the majority of my plinking will be done at this particular range, I need some form of optical sight.
I want someting cheap, compact and cheap. It will be used for plinking only. No field use, no need for a variable power, no need for a system that holds it's zero when reattached.
With that criteria in mind, I'm leaning towards the Leapers brand that are advertised by all the discount dealers. Has anyone got any experience w/Leapers scopes? Would they be worth the $50.00 I would spend? Does anyone have any suggestions for a low cost (under $100.00)compact scope?
If I could afford it I would go w/the Elite IR or the AMT 5x33. But I can't, so any input is welcome!
