Default Re: Scope for an AR-15

Check out eBay. I bought them there for around $145 delivered. It may take a while to get one at the lowest prices though. Even $165 is a pretty good price, if you don't want to wait your still still doing good @ $165.

Get good mounts, you will need higher than standard mounts to properly line up unless you have a raised flat top AR. The Armalite style one piece mounts are nice, very sturdy and have the proper height. I believe Model 1 makes a good version of that mount for a good bit less than the Armalite (about $65 vs $100).

Your other option is to use decent rings and a riser to get the proper scope height.
