Barret?

 

There's only one optic under $100 I would buy and you're already waiting for it lol. You can ask Matt about what cheap optics will get ya. I prefer iron sights for under $400.

The Aimpoints I'm looking at are in the $700-800 range.

Yep

 

At one point in time that price wouldn’t have made me blink. Right now just can’t spend anywhere near that.

I do t normally go the cheap route on things for myself but the past couple of years have drastically changed that for me.

 

If you set aside pay that red dot money for irons, you have something to shoot while you set aside money for a combat proven optic.

 

You no likey ACOG’s

 

The ACOG is the most durable, combat proven optic out there. I love them.

It's also $1000-2000 for one

 

I tell most people to go with an Aimpoint if they want the best red dot, ACOG for best combat fixed-power and Vortex Razor or Nightforce for best LPVO

 

My vortex seems to treat me fine but I know they get alot of crap on the gun pages.

 

I like acogs and have a few eotec’s

 

Maybe for their lower lines, but the Razor line is one of the best in the industry.

I want to swap out my range/hunting scopes for Vortex Viper PSTs or Primary Arms Silver Line scopes.

 

You're welcome! Thank you for the compliment and the business!

 

I like Eotechs for their reticle and I used one for a little while on my M4 and on an M2 in Afghanistan.

I was issued an ACOG TA31F when the Army issued me an M4A1 in 2016.

 

I’ll probably just snag Bushnell. Just found a good price on fleabay for someone selling a bunch of new ones. Will just need the riser which is cheap enough on Amazon.

 

I think it uses the Aimpoint T1/H1 bolt pattern, so you can use risers for that and the Holosun 400-series.

 

I just have the basic Strikefire II red/green dot. Cheap plinking rifle isn't getting high dollar glass. Lol.

 

You have one for sale?

 

I feel the same with plinking guns, but I usually keep iron sights on those.

I put medium value scopes on my range guns. The only serious gun I have is my camo AR15, so it got a $600 red dot. My long-range/hunting ar15 has a low-end Leupold scope.

 

Maybe I have two
