Time to upgrade my pistol scope, not sure if I want to stay with a standard scope or move to a red dot or Acog ? Any suggestions from others?

I don’t have any suggestions, but that is a sweet setup! What is your effective range with that thing? What don’t you like about your scope?

Thanks! It’s really solid at 100 yards, but starts to open up a lot 150-200. It’s a Burris 2-7 , it’s not bad but I’m getting old eyes and need something with better clarity and eye relief, which is why I was considering a red dot.

Gotcha  :tup:
A red dot would provide the best eye relief as far as arms extended vs arms bent etc I would think
But the magnification on the ACOG would be nice though, I’m only familiar with the ones my beloved Corps was issuing in the mid 2000’s and they were pretty badazz on a M16 but I don’t think that style would be as good with super long eye relief.

Man I bet that is a pleasure to pack around in the woods! I need one
