use iron sights until you are proficient with the AR. Put the $100 away until you have $300-$400 and then go to Eand E and get a used Eotec. You will keep that set up for a long time.

I appreciate the advice. The only problem I have with Iron sights is the reaction time lost with having to line up 3 points instead of 2. That is why I tried to budget in 100 (or less) for at least some cheap system.

Around $100 isn't going to get you much in the realm of scopes or red dots. You could squeeze a decent front and rear BUIS out of that if you shop around. There is no decent scope/mount/rings combination for that much that is going to be that great on an AR w/o worrying about it holding zero. As for weapon mountable NV, you will need MUCH MUCH MUCH more than that. Getting used to irons is the best way before progressing any further. Spending around $100 for any sort of optics would be a waste of money IMHO.

Well, I'm no fool, so if the second opinion agrees with the first, I guess I'll just have to budget a little more then!

That might just be perfect, I appreciate it! The Primary Arms red dot is about the only optic for around $100 that's worth spending money on. It will let you see if you like red dots before investing in something like an Aimpoint, it's reliable enough for range use, and the seller has excellent customer service and is very up front about what he sells. Forget getting anything with magnification or especially nightvision for that kind of money; it will be junk. |

And for top of the line NODs (like a intensifier/thermal hybrid) add two 0's. |
