its a great little carbine...actually my favorite, and thats including 2 Mini14s, and 2 high end ARs. using the factory sights, (with the wider trijicon front blade than the other M1As come with)
i can bang steel at 300 yds all day long. i just cant bring myself to put any optics on it, imo its perfect right outta the box.

I'm a fan. I tried it with some HST 165 BTM "Law Enforcement" (sniper) ammo. I won't discuss the accuracy @ 100 yds, except to say that quits a few rifles on the market would be considered accurate if they could match it.



Here it is with my "Ultra tricked-out AK variant" (everything on that gun but an hibachi. sort of "can I find something else to add? project)

Sorry I didn't see the question earlier.

It's just a Simmons 2x pistol scope. I have used it on a couple of "scouts" so far . If it can hold up to my Mosin 'scout" it's tougher than its price would lead you to believe
