Pretty much every AR platform I own has one on it.

I have none. I put a magnifier in front of a Romeo 5 on one of my carbines, but frankly I don't like it. And I don't really need two 16" carbines with red dots on them. I have a legit scope on one AR, 510s on my newest and an unbraced pistol and I wouldn't mind putting an LPVO on the one with the magnifier, which is my first AR, a VI Witch Doctor..

The Vortex Strike Eagle series are better quality optics and can be had on sale for a few bucks more than the Crossfire at PSA and OpticsPlanet regularly .I been looking at this one.

Think last PSA sale I paid $60 more for a Strike Eagle
Edit: PSA usually runs code “strike” on that series for their deep sales

Agreed KF I bought both the Vortex Strike Eagle and this Sig LVPO from PSA on different sales. The Sig scope went on my Sig MCX Virtus 556. The Vortex Strike Eagle is still in the box and is a canidate for either my Christensen G2 Ca-15 556 or maybe the Saint Edge 556 that I picked up recently. (or maybe even my Sig 716i 308
). Decisions, decisions.But for the money, both are seriously good scopes IMO.

Well it could be read either way. If you are looking at two cars, one behind the other, which one is in the front ?Understood, but way it reads is towards the barrel side of the red dot
Well, I guess it does depend on which way they are facing. Probably this is a result of the way effects pedals are described to be "In front" of whatever amp you're using. In other words it's just a habit.

Interesting discussion! I shoot feral pigs with a FAL, 21" barrel, with a Weaver V3 1-3x20mm scope. I have it mounted in Warne Maxima rings on an ARMS mount, as low as it can be mounted. I needed to relieve a rivet on the rear top of the mount in order to set it that low. The rear factory sight may appear to be in the way, but in actual use, it's not even noticed. I really like this setup and I've had some success with it.
