If you have experience with one of these, do you like it, and would you buy another one?

Only ones I have much experience with is the C-More and the Leupold/Gilmore. A friend has two C-Mores on two race guns and they have always been flawless. One gun has tens of thousands of rounds through it and the sight is still working. The other has less rounds, maybe 5,000 or so but it works just fine too.
My EAA Silver Team came with a Gilmore sight but I sold it on eBay for about $140. The person I bought the gun/sight from had used it in competition and claimed it to have gone through about 20,000 rounds. No problems whatsoever other than looking a bit worn.
Lastly, the wife of my local shop owner, who is a nationally competitive shooter, swears by the Trijicons. For whatever that's worth.

I have two Aimpoints on two different hanguns, I didn't buy them at the same time.
Translation, I liked the first enough to buy a second. :D

I have a Tasco pro point on an AR that has been reliable and a great match for the rifle.
It is a coyote shooter and gives quick acquisition, easy follow and a consistent 3 inch hit area at 100 yards.
The Tasco is not in the class of the units you are looking at, but the concept is the same.

I own 3. 2 on ARs and one on a M1A.
The oldest one (Eotech) is at least 7 years old and hasn't lost zero yet. I have it zeroed @ 50 yards so it is on @ 200 yards (.223). I can keep a can in the air with this rifle and the red dot.
