Please recommend budget optic for HD on an 11.5 AR

[mrfabulous]

There is way too much info on this site.

I'm building another AR. This one is an 11.5 CMMG flattop upper on a Stag lower.

It is primarily for HD or more realistically, short range shooting. Between the stamp and eveything else, my budget is shot. I got the BUIS figured out. I like Troy.

Please scoot me in the right direction for a versatile optic to supplement the BUIS under 200$. Reflex sight? This rifle will likely get banged around so it can't really be flimsy. There are a million different options for these rifles, I'm freaking lost. Again, I'm not rich. I understand the need for top-notch components but I just can't afford them.

Thanks for your time!

How about a trijicon reflex sight for cqb, look at ebay or AR-15.com.

if it is going to get knocked around watch the EE on ar15.com for a used Eotech or Aimpoint.
