    Basically looking at some Affordable sights for my AR, dont want to break the bank to much, would rather spend that cash on ammo.

    I'm looking at the Bushnell Acog style optics and the Primary arms Gen 2 AA

    Anyone got any experience with either one? also how is the Co Witness on the Gen 2 can it be set-up with absolute co-witnessing?

    well if your looking to run a red dot the vortex strike fire and sparc a good options. i had a strikefire on my AR and it was awesome held zero.

    i have another friend who runs a sparc and loves it.


    i now have an eotech now but is a bit more expensive that the vortex.

    another good option is the aimpoint pro

    I like the PA.

    I put it on my AR22, but it seems like a solid unit.

    Got a cheapo Simmons riflescope on the 20" 5.56. It's cheap and perhaps the focus could be clearer, but it does the job and holds zero.
