I'm looking at buying one for an alternative to the iron sights on a Mosin Nagant... would be mounting it where the rear sight is, wanted to do a scope there but the eye relief would need to be like 12 inches... just want to know if anyone knows much about these and whether it would hold up to that kind of recoil.

For mounting as a scout setup, I would recommend a pistol or LER scope over the red dot. I had a scout mount on an sks for a while and tried both a tru glo red dot and a pistol scope (1.5x) and far preferred the scope. I was just as quick on target with it, and could still use it both eyes open.
