OP, your equipment choices (sights) for 3 gun are going to be based upon what division you want to go in. Tac Optics is the most popular division, here you will find magnified optics ranging from 1-4 up to 1-6 for the most part (I've seen a 3-9 used with off-set irons at a 30 or 45 degree angle). Tac Irons, you'll see numerous different set-ups for this (I have a dissipator without red dot, buddy has a flat top and carbon fiber handguard with a top rail and flip ups and an Aimpoint, etc, etc, etc. Open, throw a high powered scope and an offset red dot on it.
For uppers, a flat top, 18" barrel with either rifle or mid gas, with a free float carbon fiber tube are the it things now. For the low powered scope, it is really your preference for reticle; there's an abundance of them out there. Your trigger is good, the RRA NM triggers last about 5-8k rounds before they wear out and start to touch off another round or two with every trigger pull. Run it until you can't anymore.
Since you roll your own, a low profile adjustable gas block, low mass bolt carrier group, and low mass buffer and action spring. With the buffer, you can drive the pin out, remove the weights, and put the end cap back on and be set there. You can tailor your handloads for accuracy and adjust your gas block to a quarter/half turn past where you can get the action to cycle enough to lock back on an empty mag. The extra little bit of turn (opening the gas block) will help in reliability. This light weight/adjustable set-up will reduce recoil. Also, get a good compensator. The DPMS Jerry Miculek brake is cheap and effective, I think I picked mine up for $45ish.
Now, you need to get to know what kind of match the ranges like to run, are they full of quick hoser stages? Is it a blend of tight shots at distance and nonthreats in front of close targets? How far is the longest shot and are there lots of long distance shots, what size of targets will be out there?
Go read the Brian Enos forum for rifle-specific gear. That will help you answer some of your questions about what gear is out there and how they impact your match performance. The most important part of 3 gun is not the equipment, but how well you can run your gun. Having a tricked out competition gun that runs on the fine line of reliability and low recoil won't mean much if you don't know your hold overs/unders, how to transition between targets, reload on the move, and getting a good sight picture and trigger squeeze.
