Going to 'trick out' an AK, looking for scope suggestions

[dc dalton]

I just bought a nice AK receiver cover that has a tactical rail attached to it and I am looking to do some 'tricking out' of one of my Yugos. What I'm looking for suggestions on is a decent (but not too pricey) 'quick acquisition' type scope to mount on it. Not looking for some 'long distance' type scope, something that is more 'point, look and shoot' in it's usefulness .... a tactical scope.

I played with one of Pa. Patriots ARs a while back that had a nice one, don't remember for the life of me what it was.

Bushnell makes a clone of the EO Tech Sight , for about 2/3rds the price .

If you want to go REALLY cheap BSA makes a Red Dot sight thats less then 50 bucks

Hey DC...would that fit the Underfolder? I noticed on th receiver cover it has a small moon shaped cutout near the end of the cover on the bottom.

Dave, I have had a few reflex optics lately, an EOTech on my AR and two Bushnells. The Bushnells are excellent, one is on my Cx4 Storm, the other sometimes on my STG-556. These are the two Bushnells I have:

they look pretty cool, even though the 2nd one is a tad pricey

im really starting to like the red/green dot sight i put on my GSG. im rather quick to get from target to target now with it compared to just iron sights. i vote a good or decent quality red/green dot. and since that rail looks like it has the side rails too, why not just add on a laser with a pressure switch, or is that too much evil tacticool accessories for an AK?

I will have to take a photo of my buddies Yugo...he has a scope, light and a damn laser on it....looks like something out of Buck Rogers.
