Are there any optics around for poor people?

I want something that looks cool and is cheap for my norinco AR. I see some optics that look cool and such on ebay?
Has anyone ever played with some of the ebay cheap replica options? Airsoft stuff? Experience?
I can't afford anything good as I just spent $2500 on a g17 gen 4, cqa and 2cases of ammo.
 
airsoft replica china three things i avoid what are you looking for red dot or a scope, redfield vortex bushnell ar series are good choices that wount break the bank if you are looking for a red dot bushnell trs25 is a solid cheap option vortex sparc or strikefire i personally would not put anything below what i mentioned on any gun i own

I got one trs-25 for sale and it's 3 months old in mind condition. PM me if you are interested. I am in Comox BC.
 
Bushnell AR Series:

Was looking at the bushnell ar scopes.

How much cheaper can you get with a bushnell trs red dot?

Look for vortex strike fires as well
 
The trs-25 is perfect and wont break like those knockoff rds. I know from experience. NC star is one of them.
Question, what distance will you be shooting? I know if you have a 5moa dot, shooting over 50yds and wanting small group sizes could be an issue. I went with a HD7 since it had 4 reticals, small dot, auto shutoff and auto light adjust (Nice to have shooting indoors and out in sun) plus the cost is only $300 or less bucks. However its much heavier than the trs-25.
 
Bushnell AR scopes or the Nikon AR scopes. I believe both ranges have 4X scopes (i.e 4 power magnification) and are cheaper than the Vortex. If you check Plain sight Solutions forum you can see the prices of the Bushnell AR series also Frontier Firearms stocks them. The following is a good review of the 1-4 which is a first focal plane scope http://www.gunsumerreports.com/review_bushnell_ar223_1-4x24_scope.php

Any reasonably priced reflex sights that will handle the recoil of 12 gauge? I already have the Vortex Strikefire and TRS-25 for AR's. Want to try a reflex sight on my shotgun that can handle the recoil and not break...

I was thinking about the Burris Fastfire III, $276 w/picatinny mount on Amazon.ca. Anything less expensive in a reflex sight that won't shatter on a 12g?

One is on my turkey gun the other on a lever action.
