Rifle Sights come in all shapes, sizes and of course…prices. If you are new to firearms, purchasing a sight for your rifle can be a bit confusing because of all the options. I recommend starting small and working your way up to bigger and better attachments. There are a TON of different types of attachments for your rifle on the market and I suggest to do a bit of research on the types of attachments you might want for your rifle. I also recommend that you start with a scope or sight because these attachments will help your aim tenfold. They are easy to install and usually need little upkeep to maintain.
So, to start of with, here are a list of electronic sights that do not cost much but, are highly rated. These sights are a great starting point in customizing your rifle to where you can use it to your best potential without much hassle.

Summary
Here is a great starter reflex sight for the right price and quality. This is your basic reflex rifle sight that does everything it’s supposed to. It has a couple of different color settings and four types of reticles for a targeting cursor of your preference. I usually prefer the circle dot. It helps me center the target better. Once of the best things about this sight is that it can fit any rifle rail type – Picatinny Rail and Weaver Rail systems.

Summary
This reflex sight is pretty close to the previous entry – 4 reticles, 2 colors of red and green, and waterproof. The quality is pretty similar. A couple of things that set it apart though. It does have a sleeker design. Plus, the brightness and color adjustment knob is a bit thick. This is a good and bad thing. It makes the attachment a bit wider which can hinder you if you are looking for a more slender rifle sight but, it also makes it much easier to adjust settings on the fly. This sight was also made for picatinny rails.

Summary
Check out this telescopic-looking reflex sight. It has a more traditional look to it but has most of the same features as the the other red-dot reflex sights on here. Brightness and color adjustments are easy due to the knobs to the top and side. The sight also has covers which help protect it when not in use. This sight only has a dot reticle. Great started red dot sight if you are looking for a red dot sight with a telescopic look and feel.

Summary
Here is another cool red dot rifle sight for the price. What made this red dot sight stand out for me was the scratch resistant amber-bright lens that make viewing viable targets much easier in specific circumstances. I noticed quite a difference in low light scenarios where certain items were generally hard to identify quickly. This sight helped greatly with that. Highly recommend.
