IMHO, depending on what you plan on using it for, I'm not sure it would be that great a match as a 3X site would probably be a little excessive for a pistol cartridge carbine, although to each his own. Keep in mind the Burris has a BDC (bullet drop compensating) reticle that's made for a 5.56 for 100 to 500 yards in 100 yard increments, so it might also be a little busy for a carbine made for CQB type applications.
On the other hand, if age is making your eyes a little weaker than they used to be, 3X might be just the ticket...and while it's not the only site out there with the feature, I really enjoythe multiple brightness reticle settings in both green and red. I've shot it in conditions from dim and cloudy to bright Louisiana sunshine against targets of various colors and so far, it has been able to provide a brightness/color setting that has been just about ideal.
So, it’d be better to put the Burris on the AR. Got it.
I happily admit that the 4095 was an impulse buy. I was just in such a good mood after finally picking up my CCW this morning.
I’ll still be getting an AR, though.
Eventually....
Thanks.
