Yes. On my M, I've got Romeo5. 2. P Sport
A utg magnifier is in my possession. It's not perfect, but it gets the job done.
You'll need a picatinny rail to mount this on, depending on the make of your AK47. The AK-47 from American Arms has a short rail that can be used to mount an optic.
It's possible that the image is from a stock photo collection. I got a Romeo 5x for my birthday. The battery is the distinction between 5 and 5 x. Instead of using a flat watch battery, the 5x uses AAA batteries. It's a lot more convenient to use. On top of that, 5x makes sighting easier. The reticle distinguishes 5XDR from 5XDR. Choose 5x and you will be pleased.

This red dot has made a big impression on me. I'm a bit of a wuss when it comes to making decisions, and I was torn between several options. However, a friend of mine insisted that the Romeo 5 was the best bang for the buck for someone new to ARs like me. For some reason, I couldn't get past the fact that I wanted a red dot that ran on a standard battery for a real-life, long-term SHTF scenario. Maybe it's a silly thing to be concerned about, but it's my money after all. Anyway, after weeks of reading reviews, specs, and price shopping, I realized I had never even looked for an AA or AAA Romeo 5! But, thanks to a simple Google search, I found this guy, and I couldn't be happier. This 5x version is well worth the extra money in my opinion, and I now understand why my friend wouldn't stop telling me to get a Romeo 5. It's sturdy, simple to use, and adjust, and it came perfectly aligned right out of the box. My Magpul pop-ups, which were exactly what I was looking for, are proof of that. If you're reading this review, I'm guessing you're undecided as well, and for what it's worth, I'd recommend this over and over again.
I chose this one after looking at a few reviews and videos. On my S, I mounted it. W M& P 15. I used the spacer that came with the kit to make it a lower third co-ordinate. witness. Overall, it was simple to install; just be careful not to "torque" the small screws to the point of breaking them off (if using the spacer). When I first turned it on, the dot appeared to be a jumbled mess (I believe this was also a problem for others). I took out and replaced the battery, which seemed to solve the problem. I had it sighted in at an indoor range. To sight it in, it took about 15 rounds at 50 yards. This model uses an AAA battery; it costs a little more than the one that uses a 2032 battery, but I prefer the AAA model. The battery cap, as well as the elevation and windage adjusters, are easily accessible. The Red Dot (2 MOA) has a good number of brightness levels (level 5 worked well for me) and is easy to use. After about 2-seconds of holding either button down, the Red Dot turns on or off. 3 seconds) and automatically turns on/off after a period of inactivity, both of which are useful features. The overall size is satisfactory, and eye relief is not a problem. With a price tag of under $200, this Red Dot is a no-brainer. Apart from the made in China stamp I noticed while installing the spacer, I can't think of anything negative to say.
While there is still some starburst due to my eyesight, the dot is much more crisp and easily discernible within the bit of starburst. Would highly recommend.
A return was accepted by the seller, and it was promptly replaced. br>br>When I got the replacement, I put it on my shelf. After several months, I finally got around to looking at it. My blunder: (I should've taken a closer look right away. ) The replacement, however, has the same issue.
Mine was delivered on Sunday and returned on Monday; the unit was defective, with a red line running from lower left to upper right just above the dot, and a deep red tint to the upper quarter of the glass. I contacted Sig Saur customer service, who advised me to return it to Amazon because they would not touch it. It was told to me that too many are being repackaged and sold despite the fact that they are defective.
This is an excellent optic for the money; for my eyes and my eyes alone, it alternates between a crisp dot and a slash on some days. It looks great, turns on automatically, saves brightness, and has a triple-layer protection system. It's a's, and the glass is crystal clear. I installed it on my DD ddm4v7 and, as I previously stated, I am very pleased with it. There are clearly better optics; it all depends on how much you want to pay, and for what I paid, this was well worth the money.
To be honest, I was a little hesitant about purchasing this from Amazon, but the price was lower than Sig's website, so I decided to take a chance. This is a fantastic deal that actually works. Clear Glass, and this thing is amazing for the price; this is my second one, and I don't think you can beat it for the price. Instead of having to undo half of the optic to change the battery, using an AAA battery makes it so much easier. Love it.
Whatever anyone says about buying "cheaper" red dots and how you need to run an aim point or an eotech for perfection, I'm not buying them. This red dot outperforms the Vortex in terms of battery life. On all of my firearms, I will always use sig.
