Lookingfor suggestions for Reddot for AR-15

(1/4) > >>

newfalguy101:
I built ( ok, ok, assembled ) an Ar-15 for my wife using a DPMS lite-16 flattop upper and now I need a scope for it.

I don't need a "super duper best scope ever invented" optic on this gun, I am looking for suggestions for an entry level dot sight.  The gun wont likely get shot much more than a few hundred rounds a year, and I didn't spend a ton of money building and don't want to spend a ton of money on the scope.

Thanks

Vortec has a nice little red dot that you can get for about 120 when its on sale from Palmetto. Or Primary Arms has a nice dot with mount for about a 100.

bkoenig had a vortec listed a couple months ago. Maybr PM him and see if he still has it. lincoln gun show is also this weekend might be able to snag something...

How does the Vortec work in bright sun light? Most of the inexpensive sights I've been around are tough to see on bright sunny days

I hung a little Bushnell TR-80 on my 15-22.  Seems to work well.  Turkey hunters put them on their shotguns, so the recoil of the mighty 5.56 shouldn't be a problem.

I shot my Vortex red/green dot in daylight hours and it was more than bright enough.  Of course the red dot is not exactly small either.
