I spent some real money on this PS90 and it has the worst iron sights and want to put a nice optic on it that isn't the cheap red dot. Or maybe I do if it will work?
What do you think? What would you recommend?

I went from an EOTech Holo to an Aimpoint Comp to finally settling on the FN mini red-dot.
I found the regular scopes too high above the bore - 5 inches or so - for my ability to remember hold overs/unders at any range.
As a range toy, zeroed at a specific range where you will be doing the majority of your shooting, they work great.

The regular scopes were more "comfortable" and quicker to aquire, but I had to add a mag coupler to raise my cheek. While this gives you 100 rounds on-board, it makes for a larger/heavier package.

The mini red-dot with mount is a bit lower, but still not ideal for vertical accuracy - still way above bore. It is what it is. Keeps the whole package much smaller and lighter.

I know what they need for better accuracy and no special mounts. But I don't think they make it. A para-scope optic that sits normal on the rail but drops down on top of the barrel. I bet it wouldn't even look that weird either.

I have a RMR on mine in a low profile mount. Love it.

Whatever optic you go with I'd recommend a Tros ultra low mount...

I am using an Aimpoint T-1 on mine with the factory mount. Very happy.

TROS is a good source for most things PS-90. They did the SBR conversion on mine.

You don't have the back up iron sites on yours like mine did. I bet yours came with a old Trigger Pack too? I've heard good things about those.
