I just picked up a used PS90 and it needs a little help in the optics department. It's got a Vortex Strikefire in a Larue mount on it right now. It kinda works, but it's a chin weld and there's gotta be something better out there. I'm also going to work on the flashlight situation on it too. I've got a Surfire sitting around the house somewhere. Obligatory pic:
 Attached FileI will be going the SBR route with it too in the near future. |

Thanks! Decisions decisions.... Quote HistoryBudget? Get the Tros mount and keep using your vortex. =/100yds? TA33 (yes, if you're not aware, loading the P90 up with some EA ammo will get you past 100yds ballistically) No idea but want something all around useful? TA44/33 Personal recommendation would be the TA33. I have one (ar, not p90), and as others have described it, it's the "most red-dot like magnified optic." If you're comfortable shooting both eyes open, you'd be surprised how quick and easy this is, even inside small buildings. But if/when you need to, you've got 3x magnification to reach out and touch something. Add on it's light weight and exceptional durability, take away the horrible eye relief of the TA31, and IMO it's one of the best general purpose optics out there. As with everything though, optics are specialized. If you know you're not going to be needing 3x magnification, then you will do better with an RDS. Which one is largely personal preference. |

Kind of a shitty pic, but you get the idea. The height over bore is absolutely perfect, and I cannot image a smaller, more low profile setup.

I do like the ACOGs. I have a TA34 on my A4 clone and it works well once you get used to it. I tore down the PS90 last night and gave it a good scrubbing. I think the previous owner hadn't cleaned it in a while, it was kinda gummy in places. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: That's a good point about the Tros mount. I also have an Aimpoint PRO that needs a home. I might just have to go with my Aimpoint PRO and that Tros mount. It's going to be 100yds and in shooting with it. Probably 50 yds and less most of the time. I do like the ACOGs. I have a TA34 on my A4 clone and it works well once you get used to it.

I’m running the TROS mount with an Aimpoint Comp M3 (identical in looks to the Pro) it looks like it grew there! https://i.imgur.com/MHwG92W.jpg Quote HistoryQuoted:

I'm not really sure, 5-6 years old maybe. Might be older. Is there anyway to find out? Quote HistoryQuoted:

I run the OEM Black ring sight on my SBR and a TA-45, better eye relief, on my full length one. Both are great. TROS makes awesome mounts for the PS90.

I'm using a Zeiss Zpoint. I didn't like this scope when I first bought it but it's grown on me, and I find it's nearly perfect for the PS90.

That is so much better than the setup the previous owner had on it! It's nice to have an actual cheek weld instead of chin weld. Now to figure out a flashlight and mount and I think after Christmas I will work on the paperwork to get it SBR'd.

Using a T-2 on mine, with a DM mount, works great.
