    Scope recommendation for wasr 7.62x39

    I was looking very seriously at the leatherwood 1x30 m30 red dot sight for my wasr. What would be other comparable scopes as far as quality, and close to this kind of price, $75? Or lower.

    Also, i was looking for something in a red/green dot/wide duplex/bullseye/etc with adjustable magnification from 1-4x AND with night vision/very low light capabilities. Looking for something in the 300-400$ range on this one

    Ive been on optics planet most of today, but hard to tell which offers the best quality for the lowest price, and which are priced higher than they really should be (paying for a name and such). Im steering clear of ncstar and barska completely. So, what do u experienced reflex type scope users on ak (and likely powered rifles) think? Oh, and looking for specific makes and models, please. Thank you

      I will look into burris, staying away from ncstar.

      Is ATN good?

        No magnification needed. An AK could barley hit the broad side of a barn past 200 yards.

          I was looking for something on the low end of magnification, say 1-2x or 1-4x. But yes, i have seen thru red dot 1x, good upto about 125 yds for me at the range shooting at steel plates.

                How many rounds have u fired w the scope mounted?
                Does it hold zero well?

                My biggest concern is to get a scope that will hold zero, and work as well as it did out of the box after thousands of rounds. Saw one review on youtube, this guy loves the scope, but i dont believe he gave a round count

                  Saw one youtube vid, looks nice. The guy said he got it for $200, im looking to spend less than $100 w a leatherwood, if i spend anymore than that, it would be for something like an atn mk 350, which i am also looking at for about 400

                    thinking about getting a trs-25 to mount on a 5th gen quick detach UTG for my saiga 7.62x39, is this the set up you are using or do you have a different mount? trophy dot is going for under 100 on amazon would you recommend it I take it since you say it works great? thanks in advance
