I'm trying to decide which optic will be best for the Lite...  What have you guys been running or planning on running?  So many options but of course limited funds....

What is your end goal for the weapon?  Do you need magnification or do you just want a red dot?



With so many options out there it really depends on what you want to use it for.

Yeah that really is the big question that is facing me.  I feel the weapon might deserve some magnification because of how well it shoots.  I just need to get both.

I already have an Aimpoint M3 waiting for my PredatAR 5.56. But, I will probably get a low power optic with a LaRue QD mount as well. Maybe an ACOG, not sure yet.

You could always do an ACOG with a micro aimpoint, or something 3-9x and an aimpoint that you could just swap out.

We have the Lite in the 20'' variety. My boys have decided on the ACOG-TA31RCO-A4CP. I told them they both needed jobs. But they have been doing well in schooll so I guess i'll have to pay up , and who am I trying to kid anyway its what I would like for it also. The only one we need to fool is the wife and thats not an easy task but we will have to see what we can do

Have both T-1 and an XPS3. I am thinking T-1 because of size and weight but I like the large field of view and easy to track and find reticle. So both.  Right now Im running BUIS LaRue branded Troys.
