Hi guys,
I have an AK I want to put a red dot on. It is getting an ultimak rail and I was looking for some advice or experience with a couple of, possibily "too good to be true" deals I found on the 'net.
TNT Tactical's: 1x32 Red Dot SIGHT WITH AIMPOINT CANTILEVER MOUNT
(it's the 4th one down on the page)

OR
The Vortex 1x30 StrikeFire Red Dot 30mm Sight
http://www.swfa.com/pc-13198-2214-new-vortex-1x30-strikefire-red-dot-30mm-sight.aspx
Both look pretty nice and the TNT one claims no parallax which I like the sound of. Anyone have one of these? Anyone know anything about 'em? Does anyone have another recommendation for a X1 red dot that is under $200 bucks? I know you get what you pay for but I want one that is worth my money at least and I damn sure can't afford an aimpoint! I have never owned a red dot so any advice would be grand. Simply magnificent.
Oh, and does anyone have a dot size recomendation for 25-200 meter shooting? I want the biggest one I can get that isn't going to be hard to hit a pie plate size at 200 meters. Unfortunately I really don't know how the MOA size of a dot works. If it is too big can you not hit crap? Or is it more like a minor inconvenience?
Blah Blah Blah... sorry this post is so long, thanks in advance,
Dan

I use an Aimpoint on a Ultimak on my AK.
