Guys.
 
Need a little guidance.  I don't have any experience with the Burris Fastfire, Doctor Red Dot, or the Leupold DeltaPoint.  Looking to add one for a little faster pickup over the 4-16 I have mounted on my 6.8 AR.  I have the scope mounted in a Burris PEPR 30 mm mount.  What red dot would you recommend and what mount.  I sort like the GG&G Long rifle mount that attaches to the scope.  What do you guys think of this mount or would you suggest something else?
 
Thanks,
Tim

I know  SWFA is a surefire dealer but I cant seem to find the product on their site but Surefire makes some back up iron sights that lay 45 degrees to the right for a back up system.  You have to consider size of the optic because adding too much can get clunky. If you need a back up system of sights it likely needs to be turned on ready to go  --- right now  ---- like a Trijicon tritium fiber optic sight. So if I wanted to go to a sight like you are considering I would want this or the Surefire iron sights:
GG&G 45 Degree Offset Accesory Rail GG&G 45 Degree Offset Accesory Rail
Stock # - GGG1526
$24.95 
Trijicon RMR Dual Illuminated Sight Trijicon RMR Dual Illuminated Sight
Stock # - RM0433
  • Black
  • 7 MOA Amber Dot
  • Comes with RM33 Picatinny Rail Mount
$550.95

Well, its primarily a coyote and deer rifle.  Does that change your thoughts any?  Ultimately, I've put a scope on it I had.  Saving for another scope.  Just cannot make up my mind what I want. 
For sure a 30mm tube but cannot decide what power range I want.  Seems something with a little less magnification would be more appropriate but again, cannot decide on it yet.  I like the idea of a little more magnification with the a dot sight of some sort on the 45 for a quick shot.
