Scorpion Optics
« on: October 06, 2020, 10:19:55 AM »
What kind of optics are you guys running on your Scorpions or PDWs?  I am looking for something reliable and quick for 0-50.

  I've used a mix of Trijicon MROs and Aimpoint micros (T-1 and T-2). Been very happy with all of them. I like the smaller size on a gun the size of a Scorpion vs the larger M2/M4/PRO type optics I like on larger guns.

I have a Pro on my Saint that I really like. I was thinking the MRO or Steiner DRS1x for this one. I really like my RMR but I am not sure if I want to put one on my carbine. My other concern is figuring out the correct mounting height in order to get cheek weld while buying online.

Sig Romeo 5 in a low mount

I have a couple MROs on ARs but it just felt too big on top of the scorpion

Another Sig Romeo 5 for the win.  For the money it can't be beat.

I have the RMR on mine to co-witness with the iron sites but it feels too low.  It doesn't point naturally without a lot of time on the gun.  I'll likely change to a T1 I have laying around with a see through base and see if I like it better (closer to my AR sight height)

YMMV

Been running a Primary Arms Classic (Gen II), pretty durable and keeps zero. I also keep it on all the time; it's been on for about 2.5 years now.

I use Aimpoints on my other weapons but didn't want to shell out for that on a pistol, and I've been very pleasantly surprised with the PA sight. For $90 it does effectively the same thing as the $750 T1 Micro I run on my main AR...

Trijicon MRO. I tried a few different options and this won out for me. Light, field of view is surprisingly nice. Its a trijicon product, so its reliable and tough. I do wish they came with the newer reticle that is in the HD when I got mine. I wont buy the new one just for it, but i do wish I had it.

That said I also really like the Gen 2 Vortex Huey

Can’t speak high enough of the holosun 510c. Perfect size IMO, reticle has 3 modes, great glass clarity. Too me the best option for the scorpion. If you look through the picture post it’s the most popular option. Price isn’t too bad either ($300).
