I have a Imbel FAL and put an Ultrdot MicroDot 1.5x - 4.5x20 scope on it http://www.ultradotusa.com/ultradot_dist_blue_007.htm with see-through mounts attached to a cover. It turns out I didn't check the Eye Relief specs which are 101/103mm (1.5x/4.5), which makes it difficult to acquire quickly. If I don't index cheek to stock just right, I can't get a sight picture, even at 1.5x. I'm no scope expert and just have red-dot 1x sights on my other rifles/carbines (AimPoint CompM, etc.) and didn't/don't know enough to pick scopes.
I'm looking for another option that has 1x - 3x mag capability and a red-dot, but with Eye Relief that allows faster acquisition. I'm still interested in a see-through mount as well.
Any recommendations appreciated. As always, cost is an issue, but reliability and performance are, of course, essential.
