But I still need to decide what sites to go with  :dunno:
Dont know if I want iron sites or red dot scope  :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:   May be both  :chuckle: :chuckle:


Sweet looking gun so far. I like EOTech for an optic when using BUIS (backup iron sights). While Aimpoint's Micro T-1 is impressively light weight and small, I find the overall sight picture to be too crowded with its much smaller optic than the EOTech.

However, you said that this would be a plinking and possibly coyote gun, so I'd probably forego the iron sights all together. I'd probably look into a fixed, 3x Trijicon ACOG.
