Opinions on the best optics for an AR platform

You are probably talking about an AR-10 . I don't have 1 of those I have an AR-15 with a carrying handle top.


I have a mount that locates through the hole in the handle and everything can be removed and replaced without having to be re-sighted in.
Can also still use the sights underneath.

I have a Redfield Revolution 3-9x50 for it.

I have removed and re-installed the whole thing ( it's only 1 nut that holds it all on) about 4 times and it's always right on the money each time.

I know it isn't very top of the line, but it has worked pretty well for me, and I think it would be even better on a carry handle AR-10.
