This is a great choice if you add a low-profile rear BUIS like Magpul. Just remember that 3-9x scopes are usually long, but I don't mind it with my AR.

Having a BUIS does you no good if your scope is not in a quick detach mount. The 3-9x is an okay optic for a hunting AR, but not for a carbine length one that is meant for competition shooting or defense.
Unless you are hunting varmints or other small game, the effective range of a 5.56 NATO AR only needs a 4x scope to keep up. 9x is just more magnification than is needed and adds unnecessary weight.
