Here's my remission of sin.

Image

Arma 3x Magnifier + Side Swivel Mount
You can adjust the magnifier so that the red dot is sitting right in the middle. It sits ALMOST flush with my Aimpoint, but when you look through the magnifier, the red dot sits a tiny bit higher than the center point. I'm not too concerned about it; it's a minor detail.

I was worried that the side swivel mount won't be solid, but it looks pretty solid so far. The spring tension is satisfactory also. I shall field this piece soon, and see if it was worth spending the money for.

I apologize for the picture quality. My camera is down at the moment.

Gorgeous rifle, minus the pink. I'd be willing to bet that all the tards who hate "puny red dots" have never fired a real rifle with such a puny optic mounted on it. The weight savings, excellent sight picture, and nearly infinite battery life are such a waste. ^-^

i actually like smaller red dot's. i was assuming it was an aimpoint. most of which are extremely overpriced.

Overpriced compared to what? Cheap optics made in China? You obviously know more than we do, so fill us in on the secret.

i see aimpoint stuff for 150-200 bucks which I think is overpriced compared to a chineese thing for 40 bucks that does the same basic task for a smaller price.

In airsoft, this is true. But I'm pretty sure the one in the picture is a RS aimpoint. Besides, you can get those T1 sights just as cheaply if you keep your eyes open.

The rifle looks amazing. The red dot suits the rifle well.
