yep its an aimpoint red dot. I forgot if its 2 moa or 3 moa.
The myth about the AK not being accurate is a bunch of bs.
I remember last year we had the ak out at the whittington center and a guy pulls out his new ar15 to shoot, that SOB did nothing but jam on him. I kind of chuckled and said, you should have bought an AK.
AR is just a city cowboy wanting to play a soldier, basically, to many video games.
As for weight, whats wrong? Have a long walk to your tree stand
