need info on rings

You may want to look at the Vortex Strikefire as a lower-cost dot sight. It ain't an Aimpoint or Eotech, but not a bad value.

Now, I am always careful to state that my thoughts are my opinion. Try to make it clear I am not an expert. Don't know it all. Room for other opinions. Etc etc etc.

BUT

Do NOT buy a *** sight that looks like this picture. You will see the same design with about 10 different brand names stamped on. I would bet you $1 they all are made on the same crappy tooling at the same crappy plant in China. The quality and durability is dogshtink. You'd be better off rolling up a $50 bill and taping it to your rail as a peep sight. That way, when it didn't work, you could take it off, unroll it, and still have $50.

Not my opinion. FACT. :D

Good luck with your builds!
Vortex reviews seemed favorable for the cost. I do not want to spend much more and I certainly do not want to spend less at least for the quality that I saw, china china, and china. Vortex may be the way to go unless someone else has any other suggestions. thanks again everyone.( p.s. looking for any other opinions, options, Etc. Etc.)
 
I have not used the Vortex holo sight, but I certainly would not hesitate to do so if I needed another holo sight right now. I just ordered a 6-24x50 PST and am a fan of the Vortex line overall.

If you are going to use a QD type mount for your scope than I would absolutely go with an one piece mount. I think that the bridge between the front and rear rings is pretty necessary if you are going to be taking the scope off and on. I would be of the opinion that it will just keep everything more stable.

I will give it a few days before ordering the vortex just in case someone comes up with something else to look at. Thanks everyone
