I had one on a Saiga AK clone; used a Belarus made QR mount. The Bushnell never failed over 1K rounds; it did it's job. BUT, for extended shooting it sure got heavy. I think the red dot alone is near 1lb. With a full 30rnd mag, it was well balanced, but on a near empty mag it was too top heavy for me. Maybe a Mini 14 would do better. My next red dot attempt will be an hallograph type, maybe.
