P90 Sights (Ring Sights -10-80)

	Print PDF Brochure

Description

The MC-10-80 is specifically designed for the FN Herstal P90. The sight is a unit power telescopic sight with a black graticule for day use and a open T for night use lit by a red tritium light source. Being NVG compatible it is ideally suited to 24 hour operations.
The sight is available for every type of rifle or carbine in service and can be fitted to standard Picatinny or STANAG mount.
Aiming is instinctive and target acquisition instantaneous. The P90 is fitted with an integral optical sight without magnification, for improved sighting and quicker acquisition of the target. Performance is fully retained in low light conditions.
In the P90 the solid glass optic is potted into a plastic housing designed as part of the weapon interfacing with it through two zeroing screws for elevation and windage. The sight withstands the NATO drop test by dropping the gun onto concrete, sight down, from 1.5 metres without damage to the sight.
The sight has a 10mm aperture and two graticule patterns. Small and large rings lit by light from the target for day use and, for low light, an open T lit by a red gtls enhanced by light from the sky. The open T can be used with the naked eye or for shooting with Night Vision Goggles.
The gtls can be replaced by an armourer when necessary, using a knife with advice from Ring Sights technical department. This is the only maintenance required.

The UK company producing the optical sights is Ring Sights. I struck up a deal with them around a year back to buy one of the units, but found I couldn't justify the price on my measly account balance :S

I would love to buy one now; I'm pretty sure its possible. I guess you've already got the unit, right eltee? From RS, it's around £140 delivered within the UK; not too bad. Less than the airsoft gun, at least

I spoke to Ian Flack last time, but that was a while ago. Not sure who would deal with purchases like that now.

You think it would be worth me buying one?

If I had to pick ONE sight for a real P90, it would be the Eotech Holographic tactical sight. For backup, the iron sight built into the left and right side of the frame is fine, esp. if the front blades are painted with gunsight high glow paint. For real CQB you pretty much use an instinctive "point shoot" technique at 15 feet or less and/or support that with a laser. The real, factory sight might be of great value to many, but if I have to use a sighting system at CLOSE range my personal preference is the Eotech whereas on my real M4 that is intended for mid to long range (if I am in a support or perimeter role) is the ACOG with the built in backup iron sights, plus we add the GG&G "MAD" backup tritium enhanced sight on the rail behind the ACOG. The ACOG has some quirks and limitations (short eye relief, hard to use co-witness sights or NV scopes, etc.).

If you want to trick out your airsoft P90 with a real P90 sight (like what I'm doing...so it is not a criticism) that's fine but IMHO if you want a real world user friendly and effective CQB sight, think about an EOTECH. Mind you, the eotech's can be found used, AND the older models simply called Bushnell Holographic sights are great for airsoft and the frontal glass is strong enough that you don't have to "armor" it against incoming airsoft rounds like you do with the replica eotechs.
