Well finaly my SG-1 should be coming tomarow ;D
Anyways I was just wondering what typed of scopes you might recomend, like what exact ones. Im just looking for a sort of in expensive one, it doesnt need all the wistles and bells, just maybe a 3x magnification scope, something like that. Also, are the hunting scopes they sell at dunhams trash? Thanks for the help

Go for a red dot. For a stock SG1 (I don't know by the info you have supplied me if it is stock or not), hell El has a red dot and he has his upgraded to 400fps. Go for a red dot for now.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that its upgraded to 350 fps, but I think it seems right to go with a red dot so I'll stick with that.

Nine times out of ten in airsoft, you want to use a red dot, holosight, or similar zero magnification optical sight. there are exceptions. Take Miller for example. He uses a 3-9X scope on his AUG. He rarely uses it above 3x, and when he does, its for spotting. Just see what works for you. there are good red dots out there for $50-75 new. |

I know how it shoots, the scope is really for spotting. I haven't honed it in where I can use the scope effectively as of now. |

I have a 3-9 50mm scope on my upgraded aug(prolly around 420-430 fps) i use it a ton and only shoot with it at 5 zoom at the most, it is really nice havin a scope that is 3-9 though cuz i can zoom in at 9 and spot ppl before they can spot me. I snipe people a ton using the scope. I have it sighted it in by using targets at diff ranges and adjusting the scope and my hop up and the bb goes right at the crosshairs everytime(it also helps having a scope since i have a upgraded tightbore barrel too).  |

You can see Millers "AUG of death" in action by clicking on his vid clip in scheduled games, futureball game  |

I'm waiting on optics until I can cough up the cash for the real thing. Probably a Bushnell or EoTech holo site. Most of the people I talk to rate them much higher than ACOG's and Aimpoints, and not to mention the fact they can be had for a much lower price.
