zenmetsu 17 Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 (edited) Hello folks, I have looked around at a few red dot sights and found that people seem to like the Kobras. I was looking at the EKP-8-02, but am having a hard time finding a place to order one from. Folks here in the past said to go through Tantal, but I never got a response at the email address on the site when I made a pricing/availability request. Anyone have any suggestions for a trustworthy source? Also, if anyone can put in a recommendation for something better than the EKP-8-02, I would appreciate any input. I currently have a Saiga-12 and will be converting it to a tactical configuration shortly. Love the gun already, but the excessive trigger pull in the sporter config is pretty bad. So when making a red-dot recommendation, keep in mind that it is for a shotgun I plan on primarily doing trap and sporting clays. Thanks! *UPDATE* Funny how these things work. I did get an email response back, but it looks like those sights have a pretty hefty waiting list already. I guess it is a waiting game to get one. -Jason Edited August 4, 2009 by zenmetsu Quote Link to post Share on other sites
454496 71 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 I got a cheepo red & green sight from e-bay (not the tube type). So far I have shot 200 rounds of Wall-mart Federal bird shot, 30 slugs and around 30 OO buck shot. It is still working and accurate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The quality is crap, but its cheap cheap cheap. I personally wouldn't own one, but if you were going for quality you would have been in the market for a PK-AS...

I am not concerned so much about the price, and the Kobra sights are not that expensive. The problem seems to be more with availability. Aside from that, I would rather drink lava than buy chinese made goods Quote Link to post Share on other sites
