Out of those pics. I'd chose the UTG, for same prices you can find some red dots off of Gander Mt and Cabelas...I got a barska for $39.99, 42mm red dot.

you should have considered the sight mark holographic with four reticle options and seven brightnesses. Mine cost me under 40 bucks a peice both my "tactical" style rifles have the. And they work great.

Best for the money and daylight brightness is the TruGlo Dual red/green reflex sight. Also you don't need to use a riser on an AR unless you have issues getting down low enough. There is a distinct shooting advantage if you mount the red dot as low as possible. I generally mount my reflex red dots directly on the rail as do most speed shooters.

I considered the Sight Marks, but the Bushnell trs 25 has awesome ratings and after checking out Nutnfancys review of it on youtube I had to get one. Plus, how many reticles do you really need? I tested all 4 reticles on the Ebay sight I'm returning and found I preferred the dot. The others were just a waste.

I'm going to use a riser so I can co-witness with my sights.
