By adjusting distances and focus as well as the brightness of lights we can get clear reticle.
Thank you so much!
The reflex sight is a cheapo off Amazon. I figure I'll upgrade it when I have a little more experience with the gun and a better idea of what I want.
You can get a decent red dot off amazon for $20-30
Like this one
Obviously the Hellbreaker lower is the centerpiece of this build, but there a few other goodies on here too.
The main sight is an Armasight 4x Nightvision Scope.
The backup sight is a cheap but relatively solid Field Sport Red/Green Dot Holds zero really well after repeated firing, best bang for the buck right now in cheap, sturdy little red dots. It's mounted on a 45 degree angle rail section.
Streamlight SuperTac IR spotlight on the right side.
CMG 4.5lb flat trigger, smooth as ice.
KNS Precision locking trigger/hammer pins in FDE
Obviously a SigTac SB15 pistol brace.
AAC three prong flash hider/suppressor quick disconnect
BCM Gunfighter Charging handle
Weighs about 45lbs it seems like, but once both of my stamps get back I feel this will be an excellent stealth-mode hog rifle.
All you need is a cheap red dot sight (there's no recoil on a camera so your cheap sight isn't going to lose its zero), a short section of picatinny rail, and a hotshoe to 1/4" tripod adapter. You'll have to drill and tap the rail section to 1/4"x20 and once it's all put together and aligned superglue everything together so it doesn't move. I had the pic rail left over from another project so I saved ten bucks there. You obviously don't need 10" of picatinny rail so just cut off as much as you want. For extra cool points use an Eotech
The lens is a Rokinon 500mm mirror lens.
Stop being a pussy and get an optic made for CQB. Or, do you even operate?
the guards that screw/clamp onto your rail will either cost 1.5/2x as much as crappy ncstar style red dot and basically never have to be replaced, barring non-bb physical abuse (such as slamming into a wall).
Lasers are usually frowned upon because due to safety reasons (and insurance reasons) you can't use anything above 2m (<5mW) which don't show up too well. A shit-ton of low quality green lasers don't have proper IR filters, so while the green component is 'safe' the IR part that isnt being filtered is incredibly dangerous AND invisible.
The one on my daughters (red/left) is what I'd call an entry-level sight. It is a FieldSport red/green reflex. The one on her buddy's (blue/right) is a C-MORE Systems Railway (not sure which one, exactly). It is definitely not entry-level :-)
This is a pretty good sight. Lots of different pictures and the reticle brightness is nicely variable.
However, holy hell don't buy it from Evike. This same optic is rebranded a hundred times over- if it looks identical, it probably is. There's probably like one factory in China making these things, and different companies stamp their name on it. Here it is on Amazon for $22
Edit: I took another look at the sight that /u/Adventurepoop linked to, and I was wrong- that one does appear to be different. It offers a different array of sight pictures, and has fewer options for sight brightness. Otherwise I reckon it's the same thing. Up to you if the extra money is worth it for the different reticles. I wouldn't pay more than $23 though- mine got shot out the first time I played with it. I'd hate to have lost twice the money.
Ok...so with the exception that I posted, they're garbage. Not going to nitpick this into the ground, not interested in being 'right' on the internet. Examples of said garbage:

Etc etc etc. this is the crap i'm referring to.
I have a holographic sight on my nemesis, feels good. You do need a nerf-to-picatinny adapter though.

Already got the lexan yesterday, and went ahead and cut out a piece the shape of my RDS lens. It fits very snugly.
Since you know what you're talking about, I have a few questions on the lexan covering. I had to shave the lexan down by hand with a metal file, so there are spots that are kind of lumpy and don't touch the sides of the frame like they should, but it still fits pretty tight in there. Should I be worried about it falling out? Also, should I superglue the sides of it to the frame?
For the next question, you'll have to see my RDS to understand. Here's the link.
As you can see, the right below the lens is a little metal base. Should I cut out a shape of the entire top part of the sight alongside a square base below it, and then glue the lower lexan base to the metal RDS base? The lexan wouldn't be touching the lens, so would this keep it even more protected? Also, if the lexan gets cracked, it seems this way would be much easier to remove and replace the lexan.
Yup way to expensive...
Might as well put cheap red dot sight ($22 and it does fit)

That 10/22 isn't the base model, which variant is that? it looks sweet. My red dot was a Cheapy off Amazon
Do you know if this sight is the same as the one by ncstar?

What's your zip so I can calculate shipping please.
I use this on my CM it's $26 right now with free shipping. Its metal, red and green, four different modes, five brightness levels, and in six months I have yet to change the battery. Here It is in black for $22.
Here is a reflex sight from Amazon. I have one of their red dots on my 15-22/AR15. Its a pretty decent little red dot for less than $50 for the red dot and rise. They have a bunch of different options.

EDIT: this site has a few other options including RMR type red dots. https://monstrumtactical.com/collections/red-dot-sights
Does anyone think this would work?
Field Sport Red and Green Sight
The sight you also linked appears to be a NC star red dot sight so I wonder why its tagged as an Ultimate arms one. It says NC star on yours correct? any chance you have a picture of the sight with the poly carb shield taped on the front?
also I wonder how this sight compares:

I prefer open sights and got one of these
