Does anyone know of a website that I can purchase an Acog style scope without busting my bank account.?
Thanks?

I have read many good things about the Lucid HD7 (?).
IMO the Chinese scope builders spent more money on making it "look" quality than actually building quality in. Just watch.. the Lucid is probably Chinese 
One more thing.. Watch Gunbroker like a hawk. I passed on a brand new ACOG for just over $500 because it was 1.5 power not the 3 plus I was looking for. Should have grabbed it anyhow. |

most of the ACOG clones are just red dot sight.... then why dont you buy a quality red dot?
if you want an ACOG with magnification then save until you can get a real one...keep your eyes open on the EE....sometimes you can find some good deal.... I got a used TA01NSN last year for less than $500

| I don't mean to just pile on, but why are people concerned about getting scopes that look like a more expensive scope? You aren't going to get the durability or quality optics in one of those chinese scopes that looks like an ACOG. Why not just buy a quality 1-4 or fixed 4 power scope? |

A look-alike scope offers NONE of the advantages that make the ACOG unique, so why bother? |

Sort of like a flat chested chick stuffing her bra...it might look good from a distance but sooner or later the truth will be known, so why bother. Never buy an optic for it's looks, only function matters. |

Got a 3x Mini Acog off the EE last week for $550 shipped. Looked as new. Would rather of had lower powered, but for that amount of money I could not pass it up. May I suggest to start saving and check the EE atleast 3 times a day. I do.

Kind of enjoying it myself. Tired of rails. The more rail space I have, the more crap I put on them. Swore I was keeping this one simple. I think it's done.

I went with the TA33G-H. Use what works and what lasts. Screw appearances. |

Well...he didn't explicitly say that. He said ACOG style, he could have meant just a cheaper magnified compact optic. |

(everyone seems to assume so) Or do you just mean a fixed power 2x to 5x scope or something? Because there's the PA 4x, which will come out sometime. And then there's another cheap range alternative someone suggested on their forum when people couldn't wait for the PA 4x. |
