It's all going to come down to your personal preference. the best we can offer is our own personal preference, so here it goes:

I wouldn't change your arrangement

I also think you nailed it with your original arrangement.  For under 200 yards, I wouldn't change a thing.

If you ever want to shoot longer distances, you could justify a little more magnification (1-6x, 3-9x or similar) for your 16".  Then you can put the 1-4x onto the 5.56 pistol or 15-22.

That sounds like a solid plan imo.  Crossfire glass isn't good for far away, so 22lr is good.  I dig prism sights on short barrels.

The red dots are your easiest-to-use sights with the best battery life... I'd put them on the guns you would protect yourself with.
