The sights in my screenshots aren't pointed directly at bright sources, so it may give the illusion that the "dirty" glass is part of the ingame shadows

That's strange. Mine looks very dirty:

The screenshots are from a 100% unmodded Payday on high settings

The sights in this guide seem pretty clean and clear, unlike in the vanilla game. Can you please provide us with a link to mod which replaces their lenses?

Didn't knew about the autotag with the Theia (even if I'm using the skill with more damage on special tagged enemies). I don't really like it, because i like to use sniper rifle also for close to semi-close combat (i know i'm crazy or stupid !) and with that magnification you can't use it this way. But always good to still learn more about this game (and I play a lot...).

I like using the Theia because it auto tags specials. Pretty helpful if you have the spotter skill and drag your sight across the screen to tag all of the specials before taking one out.

Uncommon but very usefull guide, thx for the well done work. I will give it a try to the Solar Sight instead of the Speculator Sight for the R93.
