Is there any rifle scope, such as a 3x9, (not interested in Acog,) that has a relatively short eye relief?

I have a Tastco lit reticle (which came with the rifle) and it is an ok scope but the eye relief is 3", and I like to shoot with the butt stock collapsed rather than all the way out.

Thank you

Careful, get that scope too close and you will end up with a black eye.

Why do you want one with the eye relief so short?
