Ar15 optics

[Hook]

I'm trying to figure out which optics I want on this ar. It's got full dovetails all the way around. I'm thinking a red dot with magnifier but also don't want to spend too much on something that is supposed to be simple. Quick but accurate target acquisition is my goal.

Iron Sights if your vision allows. I can not wrap my mind around how much the good red dots cost.

That's what I'm thinking. Maybe some flip up ghost sights and an el cheapo 50 buck red dot up high

I just put a Trijicon ACOG on mine. I like it a lot and I get a free refill in 25 years when the joy juice is depleted.

The acog's are sweet but I don't think I could swing that unless one falls on my head

I have a EOTech 512. I like it.

What are good red dots? I've never found one I can call good.

I have an Aimpoint that is really nice but it runs off batteries and I felt batteries might get scarce during the zombie apocalypse so I made the change.

Zombies carry batteries in their pockets.

I can look thru mine and still use the iron sights. They fold down.

HD, you make a valid point. The battery issue was just a ruse I used to talk myself into moving this item from my "want list" to my"need list". I'm sure there will be plenty of trijicon acogs laying around when the smoke settles.

I picked up a wallet friendly 3moa red dot from gander mountain today and ran some ammo down range. Pretty happy with the results and it will do what I want it to.
