I just got an "Optics Ready" Anderson AR for my first AR purchase. I will only be shooting it recreationally a couple times a year similar to the OP. Since I don't even have sights on it, i have been looking at red dots. Entry level budget in mind, which of the following would you all recommend?
Vortex Sparc II
Vortex StrikeFire 2
Primary Arms Advanced Micro Dot
Bushnell TRS 25
Or should i just get some magpul MBUS sights and worry about a red dot later? TIA

My opinion is to get the Magpul BUIS and save up for a high quality red dot to put on the sweet arse AR15 that you'll undoubtedly build down the road.
But that's just me.

I was at the field and stream in Birmingham today and picked up a magpul CTR stock. Retails for $60, rang up $34 at field and stream.
Looks like it was mismarked, not sure if it will ring up for that everywhere. But for $34, I'd grab one for your new AR.

Thanks for the tip. I will check the Birmingham store to see if they will sell another one at that price.

The Ruger AR556 has a 1:8 twist barrel instead of a 1:9. Besides that, the Ruger and smith are essentially the same.
