Note that the BP-02 mounts are fully adjustable if they're too loose to start with. The way you adjust them is you take them off, turn them over, and press the clamp down on the shaft. Then you can turn the screw to adjust their tightness. The screw will lock into a groove and not turn independently once the clamp is released. I had to do this on both my PSO scopes for my PSL.
If I were to choose a red dot, I'd probably go Adco. They have some very fine products that work and hold up well. They're more expensive than some of the budget brands, but the 3 MOA dot ones are just nice. I can also tell you from experience that their dots are more than bright enough to be seen in the brightest sunlight.
I'm rather critical of the LaRue Iron Dot because of its obscene cost. At $400, it costs more than most AK's by itself. The ability to co-witness the iron sights is not that important when you factor in quick release lever lock mounts, and its 4 MOA dot and small lens area are substandard. My conclusion: overpriced junk. For around $200 you can build a BP-02 or UTG + Adco setup with a better dot.
