Does anyone have any suggestions on what type of red dot I should get? I'd rather not spend more than $300 on it but I want a good quality scope. Thanks!

Now that Primary Arms has the same kind of no-nonsense warranty I have started moving over to them because the quality is comparable and I really like the reticles they offer. If I had a budget of $300 and wanted a 1x optic I would probably go with their 1X Compact Prism Scope because of the etched BDC reticle.
