| I saw someone on this forum who'd simply clamped their red dot to the carry handle but I can't imagine it staying on very well in the heat of a game. The alternative is what most people have done is get an AR15 riser rail and tap a hole into the carry handle where there normally is one on the real deal. 2 minutes with a drill no problem. |

| cheaperthandirt.com will give you some ideas. they have inexpensive ar15 rails and optics, and accesories that will work with the alpha black. like grumbacher said, you may have to do a little of your own work to get some things to fit. just remember, if you go with a longer barrel, you will have to adjust the air to get the same performance |
