              This will make some differance in a good recomendation..

              Edit: and a price you have in mind..
              It does have a front sight post, i will be mounting either on top of the carry handle or in front of it.

              Under $200 would be great

                    Sippy,



                    Here is the one I went with. It is pretty good in low light. My only complaints are that it is a NCStar scope (did not know that when I ordered it, only bought one other NCStar and it was junk) and the adjustments are 1 click=1/2 inch at 100 yards. That being said, I had no issues sighting it in. The mount is a quick disconnect, I don't like that part. It is close when I put it back on but I have to adj an inch or so. I just leave it on now. The micro red dot is great but I think I want to take it off the scope and mount it at a 45 like the pic that 41 Chevy posted. My thoughts were that I would use the red dot for anything under 50 yards. A few weeks ago I had pigs come in and my greedy side tried to wait until I had 2 heads lined up. Before that happened something spooked them and although I wanted to use the red dot my years of shooting with a scope took over and for a couple of seconds my brain was working against my eye to scope reflex movement. I finally just used the scope and killed one running through the timber. I guess I need to start shooting more and get comfy with not using the 3x9. Have to see. Anyway, you can at least check it out.

                      How about something like this Micheal?
                      This will work with the one above..
                      Im not sure what you meant earlier when you said in front of your carry handle...
                      Does it remove or is your carry handle fixed too?
                      Sorry, Im sure Ive seen your AR posted but dont remember exactally what model it is.

                          A Nikon Prostaff 3x9x40 on sale for under $200 will work fine for what you want to do.

                            I believe Natchez has the Nikons on sale (some models) for 100 off till March something. I would get a Prostaff here for 209.00



                            Or maybe a P223 from Academy for I think 149.00.

                            200 yds isn't that far in regards to needing a lot of magnification to shoot yotes or pigs.
