What magnified optic are you running on your ps90 & on what mount?
I've got the 1x primary arms microprism on the TROS mount on mine right now, but I want a magnified optic. |

I have seen people put those baby ACOGs sometimes. Pricey but it seems like a cool solution.

How about the Primary Arms Slx 3x? Works with Acog mounts.

You'd probably want to stick to the ACOG platform mount and get something lightly magnified with a large field of view and also use something like HB Industries Low Profile Mounts to be able to get the optic low enough to not be goofy and tall. I'm using a Aimpoint Acro mounted right on the top rail and it's already pretty high, I can't imagine the weird positioning you'd have to shoot it in if you put a scope mount on top of the OEM rail. I think I'm leaning towards the Trijicon MRO HD with its ring and dot plus a low-profile mount replacing the OEM rail as one of the best setups for the gun.

Aside from a whopping 1.5x for pricey ACOG, what options do I have that still give me a good cheek weld?

I have a PS90 with a red dot in the safe but never thought about a magnified optic. This intrigues me.
Just curious, what kind of eye relief are you looking for? What would the needed eye relief be? |

The I relief needed is still being able to get a decent field of view where my cheek would be which is right behind where the end of the magazine is... |

I don’t currently have access to my PS90, my safes are buried in moving boxes and hoarding junk so I was wondering approximately what the measurement eye relief needed would be?
4”, 5”, more? I was almost thinking an old Colt 4x scope that used to put on AR15 carry handles might work but probably not enough eye relief. |

Going to try the Burris RT-6 on the Damage Ind rail. Might look goofy to some, but my eyes will be happy. Therefore, I will enjoy shooting the PS90 more. Once my Form1 gets approved, and my T3 can gets out of jail, it will be even more fun!

Any chance of a picture with the RT-6 mounted on your PS90?

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Princeton: Thanks How do you feel about it with the scope mounted? With the scope and two magazines, you can definitely feel the added weight. (I added the Damage Ind mag coupler So I still would have a proper cheek weld), But I don't think that's going to really matter in the end because I'll be able to enjoy shooting it more now. Also, it's just a range toy for me. I could understand if someone using this for self-defense didn't want to add all this weight or bulk. I have a T3 can in jail & still waiting on my Form 1 to be approved. It will be even more fun after those two things are complete. |
