Need suggestions on an ar-15 red dot

[andrewjs18]

G/fs Dad's b-day is coming up and he has expressed how he'd like to put a cheap red dot on his M4.....

so, my question to you rifle gurus is what cheap, red dot sight, would you get for an M4 with a removable carry handle for under $75?

Thanks,
Andrew

I needed a cheapo too, so at the recommendation of a friend who's really into ARs, I got a BSA GD30 (You'd want the RD30 for red). It's no frills, just a dot with 11 brightness settings. It holds its zero just fine. It goes for about $30 at WalMart. Not sure if they still stock it.

Sorry ... I guess it's not a "red dot" but it works. Not sure which model it is though.
