| Looking to put a mini red dot on top of a 14.5" BCM carbine. Still haven't decoded which route to go. I'm thinking of either the PA Micro Dot (gen 2) or the iTAC RDS1. Both are $80. Normally the iTAC is around $150-$200. I asked this same question on another forum and people were suggesting the SPARC which is about $200. If I'm going to go that route, I will bite the bullet and get an Aimpoint H-1. Anyone have experience with the iTAC? |
| I'm an EOTech/ACOG guy myself (sold off my Aimpoint stuff), but I do have one PA T-1-type RD (Gen2) because it fit my application (AR pistol). It's a very good little sight. The dot is visible in bright sunlight, holds zero, and mounted right up to the LaRue QD mount. I wish I could advise you on your other considerations, but I have no personal experience with them. IMHO, the PA mini is an excellent bang for the buck. The others are probably fine, too, but I just have never used them. |

Im a huge fan of the Burris fastfire 2, great sight and automatically adjusts dot brightness depending on light conditions. They run about $200 and its a well made sight. |
| Thanks for all the replies. I already have an Eotech XPS so I wanted to try something different. I think I've moved past my previous choices and am now deciding between the Vortex SPARC and the Aimpoint H-1. Kind of leaning towards the SPARC because of the cost savings. |
