I will probably put a red dot on my next AR, I am leaning toward aimpoint pro.
having said that, my current AR has a 1x-4x scope... I am with Wyosmith on this point.. I really like the scope, and at the 1x setting, it is fast and very intuitive. at the 1x setting, the FOV is big, eye-relief is very generous, and head position is non-critical.
My shooting buddy has a red dot sight on his AK, and comparing the two sights, the red dot has almost no advantage in speed over the 1x-4x scope. for precision work, push the scope up to 3x or 4x and the red dot is outclassed.
