Curious…chance to obtain this optic at a very reasonable $$$ and other than the dual reticle I'm thinking it might be a great addition to my MAK-90.  
Currently running a Bushnell TRS-25...Any opinions?

I'm a big Eotech fan (currently have an EXPS2 and XPS2), but they tend to sit high on AKs due to having been designed with ARs in mind.



Up to you if you can live with the optic height on an AK.

Eotechs are great, but as Liquidmetal mentioned, they sit pretty high.

You didn't mention how you have your red dot mounted, but if it's on a gas tube, you might not like the Eotech that far forward, so you'd have to add the cost of a side rail or railed dust cover into your calculations on the Eotech acquisition.

Currently using the ScoutScopes AK2 on top of the gas block….works great with the small Bushnell, but was considering their new drop rail version for the EO Tech.

If I was going to use an Eotech on an AK, I would be using a side mount.  Flip of the lever and the Eotech is gone and I have my irons available to me.  



I wouldn't want to use an Ultimak (although I really like them) because I wouldn't want to put the weight of the Eotech that far forward on the rifle.



Just my preference...

Thanks guys…went ahead and got the XPS2 300BLK, to good a deal to pass up. Is higher than liked, but it's for quick acquisition…not sniper application, so will work.
