Hey, folks .... I'm new here and just purchased the 15-22 last week. I'm not all that much of a long gun shooter, but I also have a 10/22 and a mini14. I'm basically a handgunner.
I like the mini, but shooting .22 is much less expensive than the .223 rnd. So, I tho't that getting the S/W 15-22 would solve my problem of shooting several hundred rounds at one time. Plus, the 15/22 is a very kewl gun !
I've spent some time looking at the threads/posts regarding optics for the 15/22. I looked alot at the optic planet site and some recommendations from this forum.
I'm thinking of ordering the NcStar Mark III 3x9x42 (3942G) with adaptor mount red dot pkg. I guess the last bit is a red dot unit that mounts on top of the Mark III, but I'm not sure since optic planet does not show this or explain. I think it's about $165ish delivered.
Sorry I'm so ignorant.
I suppose some folks have different opinions, and I welcome them, too. But, here's what I wonder about ..... does this unit have the red dot dealie mounted on top of the scope? And, which red dot unit is it if anyone knows?
And ... I know this seems stupid .... do I need a rail to mount this scope? I guess I want it above the oem iron sights (or do I remove them?)
I do have other things I want to add to the gun, but this is where I'm starting.
All help is appreciated. Thanx.
