SKS Modern Scope Options - Opinions?

Looks like anything modern and cool meant for 7.62x39 is gonna be in the 10" range and between $250-$350.

Anybody have any experience wi any of these on an SKS (or AK)?

Opinion? Why spend $250+ on a scope for a rifle that isn't capable of shooting well enough to justify it? These aren't sniper rifles, they are short to medium range rifles that are a heck of a lot of fun to shoot and will shoot the same with an inexpensive scope as they do with one of those expensive ones.

Sniper rifle ? No. But with my crappy (and getting crappier) vision and disdain for those old Mauser style rear sights I shoot better out to three hundred yards with slight to medium magnification optics.

I consider $250 to be mid to low end for optics. $600 and up are "expensive" to me.

I'm not sure what you are asking then. If $250 is low end for you I'm sure any of those scopes would work fine. Most of my scopes are Bushnells that cost less than $80 and I've never had a problem with any of them and the one on my deer rifle is 32 years old and still going strong.

The only scope I have on any rifle cost $60, it serves me well.
IMO scoping an SKS is pointless and using an expensive scope is, well...
I will say I'm not an old fart like a lot of you guys...;) I still have 20/15 vision. Yes, 20/15.

I wouldn't say it is pointless to scope an SKS or an AK. I'd be willing to do so with the right mounts. The only trouble with the SKS is that to do it right, you permanently alter the rifle. You have to use a side mount drill and tap mount as sitting on top of the rear cover is worthless. The AK has the side attachment but I can't find the mounts to go on it.

They can be accurate, just not sniper accurate and they are not designed for long range by any stretch.

I paid somewhere between $30-$40 for the 3-9 variable Bushnell scope that is on my deer rifle and it has been carried long enough that the rifle bought brand new at the same time no longer has bluing on the underside of the receiver where I typically carry it. It's been out in all types of weather extremes. I've never seen the need to buy an expensive scope. I don't abuse them or my rifles.

If your ok with aftermarket AK mounts Cheaper than dirt has them from a few different makers. I run a UTG quick detach with a red dot It returns to zero pretty good.

I'll look into it. I keep hoping to run into an actual mount but as I'm not going to get an actual scope for it, it wouldn't matter much. Like GS455, I can't see for crap to shoot open sight and it is a fun and inexpensive rifle to take to the range.

Some research led me to this this afternoon:

PSL Romanian 4x Military Surplus Rifle Scope, side mount scope, Used.

My only problem with it is the mount. I do not believe this will match up with a WASR-10 side mount. I've heard you can swap out the base but I cannot find a base to swap out with. The price is acceptable to me as it is actual surplus although not specifically designed for the WASR-10.

That would be nice if it did fit I'd grab one for my Wasr-10 too. The Wasr is Romanian so maybe it does fit?

Edit= looking in the reviews a guy did mount it to his Wasr
