M249 - which sight??!
7 November, 2010, 19:49
Hi all,
Looking to spruce my 249 up a bit and add a sight to it. I want to keep it looking authentic British army so any ideas for the best sight to use?
I googled images of British Minimi's and saw a few with sights fitted but not sure which type they were.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Re: M249 - which sight??!
If they're british, they're often ACOGs and I've even seen Eotech's on them.
But the best is an Elcan.

Looks like it's an Elcan then... I've got an eotech I was going to put on it but it just doesn't look right

Elcan C79/M145 is the best bet.

Re: M249 - which sight??!
only sights fitted to british minimis are either a susat or an ACOG not seen any others out there

Has to be an Elcan, SUSAT or ACOG
You need a big-ass chunk of metal optic on top of a big-ass chunk of metal gun
