LAZY EYED SNIPER said:I've had my 'Limited Edition' OPMOD (Optics Planet MODification) EXPS2-0 for a while now. I'm still not sure what Optics Planet changed other than adding their name to the side if the housing, but I couldn't ask for a better holographic red dot sight.
Here a couple pics of mine before mounting...
... and mounted on its host, my Spike's carbine...
The 7mm raised based allows for a perfect lower 1/3 co-witness with my BUIS and the 1 MOA dot is exceptionally clear. It makes a huge difference down range when the dot is only covering the bull instead of the entire target like larger 3 or 4 MOA dots. With no magnification, the EXPS2 exceeds all my expectations and allows me to put up groups that rival those made with my 3x power scopes.
I put 30 rounds of 55 gr. Federal XM193 into this target at 100yds...
I normally prefer less expensive options when it comes to optics, but for EOTech I make an exception. This EXPS2 is definitely worth the money. It's a great option for anyone looking to upgrade to a top notch holographic red dot sight.

Norinco makes an SKS 'Sniper' model that comes with with a raised scope rail installed on the rear of the receiver. My LGS has a Yugoslavian SKS 'Sniper' model in stock and I think it's going for under $400.
