AR-15 Red Dot Sight
Posted on 10/26/16 at 2:11 pm

Just recently purchased a .223 Colt AR-15. Haven't had much time to shoot it so I haven't made any modifications. Been looking at some red dot sights and need advice on which ones are the best to buy. I've done a little research but feel like this is where I could get the best reviews.

Primary Arms Advanced Micro Red Dot is pretty damn good for the money.

Check out classifieds on gun boards. Sometimes you can get a really good one on the cheap.

Just ordered a lucid hd7. Should be able to try it out next week. I'll report back.

I have several Aimpoints, a couple of ACOG's, three RMR's, a couple of Bushnell's, a Vortex and some other off brands. I am an optics whore ever since my eyes got old and I can't shoot irons well anymore.
Here is my two cents... If this is a range/plinker/play gun, buy a Bushnell, Vortex, etc and you will be more than happy. If this is your go-to, no kidding going to shoot someone gun then invest in an Aimpoint or other $400+ optic. The money buys you long battery life by virtue of superior electronics and a quantum leap in durability by virtue of case materials and shock/water proofing. But you don't need a safe full of guns sitting there with Aimpoints on them unless you just have money to burn. I have several because, at one time, I had a hook up to get them at a steep discount. If I did it over, I would have a couple and the less expensive optics on the other guns.
