Hello, so I am getting a gas blowback rifle soon (pts masada) and I will be wanting an eotech.

A real one is most likely out of the question due to how hard it is to get real steel parts in from the states so I am looking at airsoft clones.

Now, given that gbbrs actually have some recoil to them, I don't want to end up with something that will lose its center or worse, break.

There is alot of eotech copies on the market... but what is a good one?

 
Failing that, I have a hurricane XPS3 clone available. Pm if interested. 

 
EOTechs are easy to come by in the UK. Otherwise, if you ever need to get real steel parts, Brownells are a good place to go - big gun retailer in the states, they have a UK branch so they can pretty much get anything over.

 
If you need something that'll work reliably on a GBBr it's going to need to be built to a higher standard than the airsoft brands put out.  Yeah there's a few examples of cheap clone red dots which people have been lucky with but a few exceptions don't prove a rule; the likely chance is an airsoft optic will lose zero and/or the barely-soldered connections inside will fali.  If you can't find a real EoTech you can afford start looking at Vortex and other base level options for RS .22 rifles and the like.
