Anyone have more info / experience with this sight? Looks military grade at a good price.

PK-01 red dot sight.


Thanks

Good scope, works really well. Eats batteries quickly though...



i just got one of these...haven't played with it too much yet, waiting for some range time.

It is military grade.

It is one of the more simple models.

You should look around for more pricing options.

Well, is a simple military model better than a more feature laden 'amateur' one?

I'm also looking at the Sightmark red dot which is an AimPoint clone but has had good reviews at just $99.

If you can find a better price on the PK-01 let me know - it's hard enough just finding them at all!

I wasn't getting at that.

You've got the PK-01 at the bottom of the simplicity chain.

Then you've got different variants of PK-AS

You also have the EKP-* sights (aka the "Kobra").

All are military, and all have various improvements/additions over the PK-01.

Sorry if my last post came across as aggressive - it wasn't meant to be and I wasn't taking offense to your reply at all!

Yeah, I know there are (much) better scopes out there but my budget won't stretch to the higher line military sights. I'm considering just going with a fairly cheap and cheerful option until I can build up some funds for a decent $400+ sight.

That's why I'm looking at the PK-01 which is decent, if basic, without breaking the bank. As I said before, my alternative is to buy a cheaper scope such as the SightMark. I have no experience of red dot sights at all so I'm going off internet 'research'. :shock:

Therefore, all opinions are valued!

The PK-01 is built like a tank.

Have fun.

Well darn, the PK-01 I linked to in the OP is no longer available. I can get it here East Wave Products Inc. but the price has accelerated to $245 - more than I want to spend right now.

What do you guys make of this open red dot East Wave Products Inc. made by the same manufacturer.
