Reddit reviews AIM Sports Red Dot Sight with 4 Different Reticles

It's the $25 Amazon one. It's not bad for .22s, but I don't know how it'll hold it to a 12 gauge.....

I dub thee: New Palmetto Poly Franken Rifle

• Ptac Mid Length Complete Upper - $310
  
• New Frontier Stripped Polymer Lower - $40
  
• Ptac LPK - $40
  
• 6 position commercial stock kit - $48
  
  Total: $438 plus shipping and transfers where applicable. Boom.
  
  Edit: Free shipping on PSA and Amazon products, Henderson is $11.27 to my ffl on the lower. Total: $449.27 shipped... That's pretty tempting.
  
  2nd Edit: Thanks to /u/Speedkillsvr4rt for the reminder, a budget rear sight. Total comes to $471.68 shipped. We could probably go crazy and add a red dot sight as well but a couple pmags might be a better investment.

Well then you're in luck because I'm cheap and the total cost was about $60. the light and sight work incredibly well for the cost.

Get something cheap. I bought this guy, if you want a red dot sight. If it breaks, I haven't lost that much money and can easily replace, but mine is metal and very tought, used it for a couple months now.

Assuming you are looking for a magnification scope, if you are really worried about durability there are a lot of mods and guides to give scopes and sights to make them withstand bb's. And you don't have to spend 1300 on a Trijicon, you can get a decent 4x for like 40+ dollars. If looks are your concern, maybe like 80-100 bucks. My sniper scope, which cost me about 30 dollars, has withstood a lot of punishing and like looks new. No scratching on the lens or anything. Just shop around, there are a lot of ways to go.

you could probably find an eotech clone for ~$50.

Just wondering, do you have a budget in mind? If you do I could recommend stuff within that budget.

Edit: Anyways, here's what I would recommend just to start you off with:

M4 RIS
Magpul vertical grip
Red dot sight (for faster aiming)
Dye i4 Mask(These things never fog, fit glasses really well, and is low profile enough that you can still use the iron sights. I would recommend a beanie for head protection)
Condor Chest Rig(Not the best quality, but enough for Airsoft, also has MOLLE weaving so you can swap out the pouches for other MOLLE addons)

I would not recommend a sniper rifle because they need a lot of costly upgrades in order to be effective. Also playing the role of a sniper in a game is boring, you just sit back and shoot all day. You may get a lot of "kills" but in the end of the day, you're just robbing yourself of the fun/adrenaline rush of being on the front line.

Also I would not recommend a pistol until you really feel like you need one. Most of the time, especially if you play CQB, you're not going to run out of ammo any time soon, and your primary isn't going to suddenly die on you for the most part. If you do decide to buy one, I would recommend a Tokyo Marui pistol, even though it's plastic, it shoots the best out of the box and is super accurate, has crisp blowback, and they make unique pistols that other manufacturers don't make, also avoid the M92 like the plague, it's a lemon design.

Yeah, I have an AEG. Is this the sight you are talking about? Are they bright enough for shooting in the sun? Are they metal?

Thanks for your help.

Is this for like plinking?

I have a red dot sight

It works just fine and pretty cheap

if you're going to buy an optic, first determine if you need one to begin with. Iron sights are perfectly serviceable, though getting a proper cheek weld can be problematic with a paintball mask or an unfitted/untrimmed mesh mask.

spend $20ish and buy something like an aimsports-elcheapo-dot and take the time to zero it.

If you wear glasses, or have an Astigmatism affecting your vision, the dot may appear blurry or 'starburst'. to mitigate this, use the lowest tolerable brightness that you can still quickly acquire. If you still experience starbursting, you need a better quality optic.

I highly recommend looking into the lower end of 'real steel' quality sights such as this Bushnell for $70

to zero, clamp your gun in a vice and shoot at a piece of paper a few times on semi at the range you wish to engage at. use the hex wrench to move the center of the dot over the center of the group of holes, then draw a dot on the paper and shoot for the dot. if you hit the dot or close enough, its zeroed, otherwise, repeat until it is.

Isn't it the $60 one in this list? Because as far as I can see, those are exactly the same as this and this and this and this. I hate to be down on your new toy, but in my honest opinion, even plastic open sights are better than a sub-$100 optic on an AR.
