All Scopes

Iron Sights
Adder Reflex
Compact Reflector
Holographic
Looking Glass
Niche Sights (found on certain guns)

Rare Sights (weapon specialty sights)
Scout
Ghost Ring
In general, Compact Reflector is the most well round sight that holds a powerful position across MOST guns, and should be used and familiarized with.
Light Weapons + Scopes
All sights all viable (Compact Reflector and Iron Sights), however personal preference leans to Compact Reflector.
ARN-220
Compact Reflector – Seems to mitigate the recoil you feel, resulting in better recoil control & aim.
Adder Reflex – Close runner up to Compact Reflector, just preference between these two.
LH1
All sights all viable, varies extremely based off shooting style as recoil is hard to control while rapid firing, so each sight has its own advantages. Personal preference leans to Compact Reflector.
M11
All sights all viable, personal preference leans to Compact Reflector.
M26 MATTER
Sights are cosmetic and irrelevant.
V9S
All sights all viable (Compact Reflector and Iron Sights), however personal preference leans to Compact Reflector.
XP-54
Compact Reflector – Clear cut winner, best scope of them all, allows for insane recoil control and stands out above all the other scopes. Extremely versatile in range and playstyles while maintaining dominance in recoil control.
Medium Weapons + Scopes
Iron Sights – Controversial take, but allows for the recoil to be tamed to an insane degree. While target acquisition within the sight may be inhibited, this shortcoming can be mitigated with fast ADS-ing and tracing afterwards. Best sight to control recoil with.
Compact Reflector – Runner-up to the Iron Sights, much more difficult recoil to control initially for the first several bullets of magazine, however tames down afterward. Extremely brilliant target acquisition and profiling.
CB-01 REPEATER
All sights all viable, however personal preference leans to Compact Reflector.
CERBERUS 12GA
Sights are cosmetic and irrelevant.
FAMAS
Compact Reflector – Sight barely jumps while shooting, allows for burst shots to confirm multiple hits consecutively.
FCAR
Compact Reflector – The least amount of visual turbulence while spraying.
MODEL 1887
Sights are cosmetic and irrelevant.
PIKE-556
Scout – Simply better, very good at long range with 4x zoom, and manageable even in CQC.
Iron Sights – Very much viable, however due to its difficult target acquisition, it struggles in range.
R .357
All sights all viable (Compact Reflector and Iron Sights), however personal preference leans to Compact Reflector.
Heavy Weapons + Scopes
Compact Reflector – Easy recoil control, suits the ranged and CQC fights that the lewis operates in.
M60
Compact Reflector – No better sight, exceeds all other profiles.
Holographic – Still a viable sight; an alternative to Compact Reflector.
SHAK-50
Adder Reflex – Best profile and measure for bullet path, as bullets stray out as range increases. Built for precision, and well rounded high capability.
Holographic – Alternative viable sight.
Looking Glass – Adder Reflex but with a little more visual turbulence while spraying.
