What do y’all suggest is better, flip up iron sights or a cheap red dot? I bought a $35 red dot from Amazon but I sort of like the looks of the flip up sights. I have the flip ups on my AR10 and I’m satisfied, and I have no experience with red dots.
This is for my new cheap AR15 that I don’t want to put much money into. Not intended to be a long distance shooter so 100 yards max distance needed and realistically more like 50-75.

BUIS (back up iron sights) cost might surprise you.
Magpul sights will be ~ $150+
That being said, I would rather have BUIS over a cheap red dot that might not work when you need it to.

You really need to spend more than $35 for a red dot. Those cheap Amazon sights are for airsoft and air rifles. Holosun (China) and Sig (China, Philippines) make very reliable red dots for not much more.
