Optics for a good price

[powder in the air]

So I finally got that ar I wanted and it only has the factory sitea. I do have the rail live that fits into the carry handle. My question is, what is a affordable optic that is better than a Walmart job?

 

[Nemesis]

depends...what are you looking for? a scope? red dot?

I'll second Primary Arms red-dots as an affordable decent sight.

No it's not 'as good as an Aimpoint', but it's much better than the cheap Walmart and Bass Pro sights.

Another second for Primary Arms!

Good sights at a decent price and the customer service is good!

Vortex strikefire. Never seen a PA in person however, in pics the strikefire seems to have nicer glass. My stirkefire worked well for that last year. Just now had problem, however vortex is going to take care of it no questions asked.

Buy once, cry once. Get an Aimpoint PRO.

I dont always agree with buy once cry once, but thats a very good value optic. You could always search for used eotechs or aimpoints. Thts what I did... I always try to never pay retail.

Buy once, cry once. Get an Aimpoint PRO. (If you can find someone willing to sell to a non LEO)

Fixed it for you Jim!

I haven't found anyone that'd sell the PRO to a non-badge.

Maybe I haven't looked hard enough though.

With this being my first ar with another one to come once the weddings over witch is in 2013 I was trying to find something around 150 including shipping and handling. I want to be able to use it for Target, maybe hunting and of course for when shtf. But if I can find one that is good for cheaper well the miss will love that. I also would like it to be some what rugged

Vortex strikefire is about 150 said and done new. My gf has one that she will sell for the right price.

If you want a new one i bought mine from 2 A sales in jessup. He usually stocks them.

Its a tough optic, especially for its price. Ive heard LAPD uses them, supposedly theres a few security agencies too. Pm me if you wanna talk.

Ebay. Lots of Non-discriminant sellers. I just got the Vortex Sparc and am very happy with it. It definaetely didn't break the bank.
