That's just an old red dot off one of my .22's. Can't wait to scrape the coin for an eotech before i get out and shoot it. :122245

Re: New toy
I use the EOTech and Ive used the Surefire, both I recommend, but I use them exclusivly on shotguns. Let me know how well they work past 100 yds. I also like the 6.8 but you will probably want to consider getting the dies and reloading over purchasing the ammo.

Looks great. I have a tricked out DPMS with the flat top upper, grip pod, red dot, 5x slide out magnifier.....the works. Love mine. Very fun to shoot to say the least. I hope you enjoy it, and I would definitely recommend the grip pod.
Re: New toy
Those grip pods are pretty spendy. The whole vertical foregrip thing feels foreign to me. I may give one of those magpul angled ones a try, they feel a little more natural to me. I'm saving my nickles now for either an eotech or an aimpoint micro. Not too concerned with a magnified scope for this rifle, I have better choices than the 223/5.56 for long range work.

The boys ordered me a Sightmark dual shot out of Cheaper than Dirt for about $80.Boonedawg wrote:Those grip pods are pretty spendy. The whole vertical foregrip thing feels foreign to me.

All my shootin buds said it wouldnt hold up on my tactical shotgun but Ive put hundreds of rounds through the gun and the Sightmark has held up well. They also have UTG red and green dot sights starting around $30 to $50 but I dont have much experience with UTG.

Check out Slide Fire. Google it. Watch the You Tube videos.
I dropped $349 for it and I can honestly say it is worth every penny if you want to have some serious fun with your AR.
