A real, combat proven red dot, like say a Leupold, Aimpoint, Trijicon, Eotech - Will cost you about the cost of the rifle, maybe more.
The popular consumer red dots, like say a SIG Romeo 5 or a Vortex Strikefire, run in the $150 range, and work for most folks reliably.
I have no experience with the CT version, but based on price, I would say they are in the consumer class.
I use consumer grade scopes and electronics on many of my rifles and handguns with complete satisfaction. That said, my one "serious use" AR wears a Trijicon.
If price is a consideration, I have 5 firearms now with the SIG Romeo 5 red dot on them, and have been very happy with the performance, reliability and features (motion activated power on and off) for the $$.
