I got one of these for myself for my B'day...
http://www.vortexoptics.com/product/vortex-spitfire-1x-prism-scope-with-drt-moa-reticle
Mounted it on my 9mm SBR and have been giving it a try this week, so far I'm favorably impressed. The reticle is daylight visible with no power, and the red/green illumination works well for any light conditions. It doesn't have the battery life of my Aimpoints but for a cheaper alternative I think its pretty nice. They also offer a 3x version, but I like 1x better.
I got a great deal on this one, and if I came across another at the same price, I'd own two.
