As someone already mentioned, you will get many different opinions with this question. For some, $2K is a serious amount of money where precision long distance shooting is concern, it may not be enough for certain serious people. If I were to make my own version of interpretation, you can...

You can put $70 centerpoint scope optic from Walmart to plink a target 50-100 yards or add $60-100 red dot sight (Bushnell, UTG, ...) to shoot in closer range. For 22LR shooting, even the cheap optics (sub $100) can give you plenty of enjoyment out of your MP15-22. Of course, you can also put a...

Magnifier helps, but dimming the light can also help regardless the age. When the red dot is too bright, it can create a hollow ring even for young eyes. Others buy crosshair optics or 65 MOA ring around 1 MOA dot (Eotech) to compensate for less than perfect eyes (myself included) :)

Add my vote for red dot and a magnifier option. Last week, my son was plinking clay trap targets all day long with Aimpoint/Eotech and 3x magnifier on AR15-22. At 50 yard, he was almost dead on, one shot-one kill. At 100 yard, we were pressing his luck and the scope to hit at 100% accuracy. You...

I've used several Plinker Tactical magazines and found they are NO LESS reliable than S&W stock 25 round magazines. What ammo (brand and model) are you using? I've found some ammos caused more FTFs and FTEs than others. Federal bulk pack has been so far my favorite (cheap and only couple...

Although little expensive, LAX Ammo has 22LR (Federal in stock). Good luck! 22 LR Ammo

You don't need a riser with EOTech. It co-witness with MBUS 2 BUIS perfectly.

As others said, it depends on your "scope" or "optic". A non-maginifying red dot sight with riser should work fine with your stock iron sights, but it will make the stock sights useless. An EOTech holographic sight can be used with the MOE edition pull-up sights (or Mbus Gen 2) with sights up...

+2. I thought the stock one was pretty good, but PTS isn't just quite that solid. After borrwoing my friends PTS (taken off from his airsoft rifle) for a quick range use for a couple hundreds of rounds, I've broke down bought a pair of MBUS Gen 2 sights at the range. MBUS feels a lot more solid...

I just saw one (standard 25 rounder with the flash hider) in stock at Gander Mountain in Ohio for around $499.
