PSA has this on sale for $149 today only. Is this a decent optic? Just want to make sure I'm getting my money's worth. Is a lot of people who have EO Tech, and other Vortex optics.

I have shot one and it kind of reminded me of a budget version of the Aimpoint PRO as far as size goes. By which I mean, in my opinion it is kinda bulky.

Its probably the cheapest optic I would consider putting on any rifle I have. Compared to the other optics in its price range you could probably do a lot worse. I myself am partial to the Vortex Sparc AR which is more of a micro dot and can usually be found for $175-200. Also the Primary Arms micro dots get a lot of love and are priced in the same ballpark.

So short answer: while not a bad optic, its a bit bulky and for similar $$$ I would go with the Sparc AR or Primary arms Micro dot.

I have one on an AR pistol and it's a good optic for the price.  I prefer the controls on an Aimpoint, but for $150-180 the Strikefire II is what I'd recommend.

Plus, if it gives any problems, Vortex has an unbeatable warranty for their stuff.
