I have ordered an Ultimak for my WASR-10. Which optic goes with it the best?

I have heard that Aimpoints are the absolute best in this situation.

Which model? I have heard that the Micro T-1 and the ML3 work best.

What do you guys know?

I'd go with the Micro T1. It sits lower and you should be able to co-witness your irons in the very bottom of the optic window. It's also smaller and lighter.

It's really the best optic for that particular setup IMO.

Just wish I could afford one :(

I didn't say anything about being able to afford it hahaha.

I need to make up my mind so I can save up for it. It also gives me the opportunity to scour the web for deals over the next few months =)

I think the Ultimak with an aimpoint micro and an offset light mount is about ideal for the AK. It gives you white light and a fast acquisition sight without adding too much undue weight to the gun. Much better option than a full rail system and larger aimpoint or eotech.

I haven't tried it but I also keep reading that eotechs don't hold up all that well to the heat from the gastube.
