Why must a red dot try to look like an acog, and take up that much space needlessly in the process?
With most decent red dots, there's plenty of real estate left for a magnifier, but between magnifier and optic, we're talking more money than some upper end glass.
I think you'd be best served looking into a decent scope. Burris and Redfield have some seemingly decent offerings that aren't much money at all. Just remember to invest in as good of a scope mount as you can afford. Scope mounts are certainly a buy once cry once affair.
point taken, and a good (read smaller) optic is on my wish-list. that bushnell is a ******* nail driver however, and until the point comes up where i'm ready to blow 600 on an Eotech i'm happy with it.
