So, iron sights or scoped?

Sounds good. If you're not using open sights, I wouldn't think the sight radius even matters.

16 inch with mid length gas system.

As far as 9mm or 5.56, I say get both. One now and one later.

I have a .45 acp, pistol caliber AR clones are a hoot.

Also like to shoot my 5.56 and I run Wolf to keep costs down.
