Scope for SR-25

[Ronan]

For the flammers. True, some scope cost $200+ but that doesn't mean the same one made by Tasco, Barska and Leopold aren't good. If you think dishing out $300-$500 for a scope for airsoft is cool or something else, well thats good for you. I personaly think it's a waste of money that can be spent on the gun (which i'm doing btw). It's not like i'm gonna go sniping people 1km away so why should i buy a scope that can do that??

I found a couple real scope from very good companies for the amazing price of $50-$80 (including shipping). They have a nice 3-9 zoom with a 40mm lens diameter which i think is just enough. On top of them i can mount a close/midrange dot scope.

I'll be able to snipe when needed, and also assault when needed.

Scarecrow, love the paint job Very nice scope also, but i prefer to have a sniper scope with a close-mid range red dot scope on top, something like this: http://img.redwolfairsoft.com/upload...700SO-DT2L.jpg

Ah lastly, not sure why i'm being call a princess O_o I didn't know that dishing out almost 2 grand of the money i earned over summer working my ass off at a desk job qualified me as a princess (if at least it was prince)

And those that you found is probably made from China.

Are you going to tell me that's not made in china? It has ONE ironsight. ONE. WTF?

[Ronan]

No clue, but Barska is a world recognize optic maker. At least so iv been told by hunting friends.

And that looks more like a design feature... not sure why you would need ironsight on a scope like that.

I have that scope and ring set mounted on my .22 because for airsoft, it was too much magnification and not a wide enough field of view... YMMV but I prefer a functional rifleman's scope in airsoft in order to acquire targets quickly.

That being said, in real steel my tactical .308 BA has a 6x24x40 Bushnell Tropy on it and its the cats ass but I am dinging targets at 300m with that thing. Could never use that in airsoft.

So what would you reccomend for a upgraded (durability and precision) CA25 that shoots 350fps? I would like to be able to snipe short, medium and long range targets so i'm not restricted like normal snipers are (long range, no closer than x feet etc etc).

If targets are too close, you can just use the iron sights mounted on the scope instead of removing the optic (losing your zero) , and using your BUIS . The Elcan, and triji ACOG both have them. They're also pretty useful as "view finders".

As for the shitty barska replica.. It's not a design feature.. it's a design FLAW.
