Lone_Bullet Posted February 14, 2021 Report Share Posted February 14, 2021 Hiya It used by to be HurricanE and some G&P's, but that was ages ago. I got myself a Vortex Sparc some time ago and, whilst a good option for €200, it has a hard to find battery option. Can you guys recommend decent clear optics for airsoft at around €200 that use AA, AAA or CR2032? Not so much CR123 as that's hella expensive at €5.5 a pop and they don't run that long. Looking for micro sized and/or Eotech style. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
badwitchproject Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 I've not used these but I've heard good things about this brand and I've been meaning to get one to see for myselfhttps://www.egtactical.com/home/275-419-a-aevolutiongear-2020ver-exps3-0-sight-l3-eotech-marking.html#/41-color-fde Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 CR123s are really that expensive in Belgium? Over here you can get 10 posted for £15 on ebay and that's with a 1 second search. Probably cheaper deals out there. And that's branded Panasonic, Energizer etc. As said, the EG Tactical/Holy Warrior are the only models worth looking at for the Eotech look. I think the Vortex line is the sweet spot at that price point but you could look at Vector Optics which are cheaper but offer CR2032 battery options. There are probably a few Holosun and Sig Romeo models worth taking a look at like the Romeo5. Link to post Share on other sites
Wingmann Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 Vector Optics are nice indeed. I have four different T1 style and they work perfectly fine. Link to post Share on other sites
Mintsauce5 Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 I've got the vortex sparc ar which runs off a single aaa battery , great optic and the vip warranty is a bonus Link to post Share on other sites
CatgutViolin Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 The rise of cheap micro dots intended for real steel has helped out airsoft. You can now get a Holosun or Sig red dot for $100-150 USD. I have a couple of Sig Romeo 5s. The Romeo 5 uses a CR2032, but there are also variants that use AAAs. It also deactivates if it doesn't detect motion for some amount of time (not an amount I've run into during an airsoft game) so if you leave it on it won't run dead. Sig also has a good warranty. Otherwise I've had good luck with the C-Mores sold on Aliexpress for around $30 USD. Clean glass, clean dots, easy to adjust, easy to make lens protectors for, hold zero. I'm not sure how Vector's 'modern' stuff compares, but I'm not especially impressed with their PSO- the glass is fine, but the eye relief is touchy, and the tensioning lever broke off after minimal use. Maybe their red dots are better. Also Vortex is great, albeit the most expensive of the options thus far. Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted April 4, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2021 Sorry for the late reply, but Arnies has become settles comfortable in the uttermost back of my mind... Anyway, Thank you for the options, most seem viable. Still itching for that Vortex holo tho Link to post Share on other sites
