I haven't seen mentioned the Vortex Crossfire II 1-4x. I had to call a halt at the amount of money I was pouring into my recent (first) AR build but still wanted a decent scope that wouldn't break the bank. I ruled out the real bottom of the line el-cheapo scopes, lusted after the high end wünderscopes, but opted for the Vortex (illuminated reticle) with a solid cantilevered mount. I honestly couldn't be happier. For a skinch over $300 all-up I feel it represents a fair value for the money.
