The Sig Romeo 5 is a nice red dot at a decent price. heck the Bushnell TRS25 is a nice optic as well. you'll need one with a riser to use on an AR. Otherwise the Bushnell AR scopes are pretty decent, They make a 1-4x that is reasonably priced.

No man made law physically prevents one from doing anything they have a mind to.
For a pistol, go red dot (as long as you don't have astigmatism). Sig Sauer Romeo5 is on all my AR pistols, but Primary Arms and Vortex make similar models.
For rifle, for the price you can't beat the Primary Arms SLx 1-6x24 or 1-8x24 SFP Illuminated ACSS (lifetime warranty).
I'm a Primary Arms authorized dealer, so HMU if you need something. The 1-6 is OOS (dealer allocation) right now, but the 1-8 is in stock.
Guess it depends on what you want to do with your rifle..
If you participate in action style shooting competitions, that reward speed over accuracy,
I could see the attraction to a red dot..maybe in some hunting situations ?
I tried a red dot years ago..(an aimpoint) but didn't like it ..was not able to shoot it with the same accuracy as a conventional scope.
Didn't stay on rifle long, replaced with a conventional scope. Recently, I've started buying higher powered scopes for my rifles, as my eyes aren't as sharp as the were in the past.
Just bought a new scope for one of my AR's.. the Bushnell Elite 3500 Rifle Scope - 4-12x40mm,
found on sale https://www.natchezss.com/bushnell-e...cle-matte.html
Had previously tried another Bushnell, I thought was good for the price..Bushnell AR Rifle Scope - 4.5-18x40mm DZ 223
https://www.natchezss.com/bushnell-a...ack-matte.html
both allow me to see the small targets I use, trying to shoot the smallest groups that I can .
again, your choice depends on how you're going to use your rifle..
Just bought a 2x Prism from Primary Arms and am most impressed! Plan on ordering another in the mourning.
Yeah man lvpo (low variable power optic)
I'm new to ARs, and I just bought one that doesn't come with any sights. If I go with a red dot, do I need a front sight too, or does the red dot stand alone?
I would get back up sights if money allows.
But yes, if you have a flat top receiver and a front rail you can just leave it as is, and slide on a red dot and just use the red dot.
