In regards to recoil and reacquiring a sight picture, Armalites don't have recoil to speak of - follow through doesn't really exist with them. Shooting techniques used with C7's and C8's can almost directly be applied to AEG armalites.

+1 when i had my elcan it was great and you dont have to extend your neck right up to the eyepiece too. they are great

Actually it's tritium (trijicon) and fiber optics as a....backup light source I guess.

It depends on what gun you are trying to put together.

You will probably want to put together a CQBR. It has as LMT upper and a regular M4A1 lower. Don't bother with that one you posted.

Also the good thing about the CQBR is that it has a Back up iron sight, so if your aimpoint goes down, you still have your irons. CQBRs work with both aimpoints and ACOGs. Although the aimpoint with a Wilcox mount is the popular route.

heh, duno. I guess you could always Crylon it. And turn it into a CQBR.

The tritium is for night-time lighting, the fiber optics are so that as the ambient light level increases, so to does the reticle intensity. That's why ACOGs don't have any brightness adjustment... they're always at the right level.

I've made my decision. Eotech + 4x magnifier on a FTS mount (flip-to-side). Seems like the ultimate solution. All I have to do now is to wait for an airsoft version to come out!

There are replica EOtech optics. Huang is the guy to see about that. As for FTS mounts and the magnifier, someone here is bound to know where you can find a reproduction of those as well.

I have an Aimpoint M68 CCO replica, an Eotech 552 replica, a Barska SKS 4x scope and I'm getting a Trijicon ACOG. If you're hesitating like I did, just buy all of them. You're not losing since you can always change your setup, you can always resell them ( I know I won't) or you can always use them on another AEG.

The problem is I have too many hobbies already. I collect high-end watches too. So if I can minimize experimental losses in airsoft, that would be preferable. True - I can always sell, but I will lose out on the deal in the end.

My motto: you don't lose when you wisely choose.
