Lightweight budget RDS needed!

[ucrt]

After dumping much money into my gun,i still need an optic.Not much to spend at this point,i figure a "mid-grade" RDS is better than nothing for now.Looking at a PA micro with the American Defense mount,or maybe the SPARC?If i could spend more i'd get either an Aimpoint micro or EoTech XPS series.The gun is a 16" AR with Centurion C4 fixed sights.Any info/advise for this combo would be great.

=======================================

What kind of AR did you get?
Just wondering...

If you intend to use the AR for anything like home defense:

- Get a Surefire and a decent mount . If you have rail , Vltor Offset.

- Get some home defense ammo that at least doesn't suck . The search feature is your best friend , but PRVI 75grn OTM Match is cheaper than Federal or Black Hills. It's not " just as good " , but it is cheaper. Get enough to test your gun & your defense mag's.

- Save up for an Aimpoint C3 . Searchs will tell you why in detail. Consider a canti mount. LaRue used to be the short answer , but there some other good choices available now.

I am going to dog pile on here. Shoot your fast irons. Spend your "Mid-grade RDS" money on ammo.

^^^This! Also try to hit up the slightly used stuff in the equipment exchange...

Instead of spending 190 on a lower quality optic, save for a couple more months and get a $400 Aimpoint Pro.

This.

Scored a good deal on a new EXPS series EoTech.I just posted pics/details about my build for those who were asking about it.
