Best sights and scopes for AEGs?

[TheOnlySystem]

Hello everyone,

recently I bought a new AEG, I am looking forward in buying an sight or a scope (or both) and I was wondering which one would be the best for a beginner who has just started airsofting.

A cheap red dot is always useful, it makes aiming so much easier. This is especially true for CQB. There are a vast array of different shapes and sizes for a red dot sight, it's mainly down to personal preference.

If I could only have ONE sight ever again, it would be the old ELCAN. They're like the fat-girl at school who was always secretly kinda hot - they're a bit too big, and all your friends will probably laugh at you if you get one, but you know you're tempted and you just KNOW they're filth in the sack.

Eotech clone all the way for me.

Unless you're getting something magnified theres not much point in anything other than irons

 

For CQB a dot can be useful but the distances are so close its not going to make a big difference

 

Also remember a sight it only ever good if its zero'd

Its a bit like asking, what is the best car to get me to work each day .

 

Ive got most of the common optics. Love em all for different reasons.

True.

For me, red dot FTW.

Most people just start shooting and correct the aim depending where the BBs hit. In that case any optic is just in the way.

They are all more or less the same as far as performance goes. Get what you think looks good.

I like an ACOG.
