Back 7 years ago I went old school, Colt HBAR with Redfield 4x12 tactical.
Set up for varmints, not zombies, can not get use to a Redot, still fun to shoot.
One thing for sure, the price of AR's and/or their components sure have dropped.
Same mount I have on my Springfield Saint, my Bushmaster has a Colt mount.

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body. But rather, to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming...WOW, What a Ride!"
