Almost bought the AR Mod 1 but decided to use the buy once cry once theory. Noticed on the Leupold website that the Mark Ar Mod 1 3-9 with green firedot is " No longer for sale"
Ilya from optics thoughts ranked the VX-R close the Vortex Razor. I will let you know what I think in a few days.
I love mine. I've had it on an lightweight hunting AR-10 and it works very well in that role. I bought it NIB in May 2018 for $323.99...a seller on eBay had them for $373.99 and I had $50 in eBay Bucks. The only issue was that there was significant light bleed in the reticle (where it wasn't supposed to be) so Leupold changed out the reticle quickly. I was very impressed with their service.
