In the near future I am going to be getting an ar15 carbine and I am deciding if I want to go with a red dot, irons or a low power scope. Choosing one of those options will dictate the base setup for the carbine. The purpose of this AR15 would be for general use carbine which could include self defense if necessary.
If you were to mount a low power scope to a AR15 carbine (1.5-4x) would you get one without a front sight post? I am aware that the front sight post will "disappear" when looking through the scope with higher magnification, but I don't know if it will with the near 1x. Also if you mount glass to a AR15 would/should you bother putting back up iron sights on it?
