Are you even .gov? If not, why should you care? How many people are using optics that aren't marketed for military/law enforcement use on their carbines and rifles anyways? Yet, they probably come in here to take a shit. With the 5 EoTechs Iv'e owned, and the numerous other's I've used, my experience is the opposite as the 87% of people in here claiming their shit the bed upon opening the box. I've beat them. I've dunked them. Ive used them in hot and cold weather. Funny, I was still able to shoot POA/POI at 100 without a problem. Because if I'm spending >$600 on a fucking optic, I expect it to fucking work. If military, LEO, Joe Blow, and the fucking company making the product admits that there are serious issues with it, I'm going to care. If I didn't give a shit about the durability and quality of the optic, I'd buy something that's 1/6 the cost. Yours work? Great. Tons of people's have problems, and they experience issues with them. That's reason enough not to shell out the dough for a defective optic. |

Ive had an eotech 552 since 2005 that has functioned just fine. The issues presented here are clearly disturbing. But i wont be sending mine back as its the only RDS i own. What i want to know is this; if Holosun can put the exact same reticle into a t1 size optic as an LED with a 3 year battery life, why in the hell could a company like eotech not figure it out if not for sheer negligence or incompetence?

Insinuating *defective* at "extreme" temperatures. We don't have extreme temps in TX. 
You can't read, can you? They can have drifting zero at 32 degrees. Hardly extreme. They lose their nitrogen purging and suck in humid air even at indoor air conditioned temps. And an optic left in a vehicle in Texas certainly can reach extreme temps. You must work for EOTech. |

Ha, not that one, but if you're talking about this one: 
My buddy's SBR'ed AK back plate pins got sheared off when he ran it suppressed.  He said he noticed the recoil started feeling wonky, and then catastrophic failure followed. Luckily, nobody got hurt, but ouch!

On the other hand, I could take advantage of the refund and get something more compact. Decisions... Are you SURE it's not crapping out? Turn the brightness down to a level you would use outdoors at night and move the reticle to all four sides of the window. If it severely dims out before reaching the edge or gets blurry before reaching the edge it is already exhibiting symptoms and will only get worse. You obviously need to be able to operate the sight reliably on low power settings and the reticle should not have to be blown out in the middle just to make it usable a quarter of the way into the window. I had a 511 I bought in 2000 that ran fine for years until I stopped using it for a couple of years. When I went back to use it it was REALLY crapped up and basically unusable. Fortunately EoTech took care of me on that and fixed the sight. I still haven't checked that one since I loaned it to a friend and I don't think they will replace a 511 on this program anyway. Not sure on that but that's the scuttlebutt I have heard. |

I like it well enough, but not enough to keep a used sight that I've had for 8ish years When I can get a full refund and throw an aimpoint on the rifle, have a new optic, and know it's not going to go bad. I used to love the eotech, and have defended it for what it appeared to be....but that time has passed. Aimpoint has it right, and I've seen many people actually beat on them enough to know they are money well spent. New current tech optic + Free use of the eotech for 8 years....yeah....I'll take that deal. |

I've been trying out the Bushnell 1-4 lit reticle scope with throw lever for a few months. Does CQB well and allows me to ratchet to 4x and have 300,400,500 BDC. I have windage tables printed on my stock that work well with the 1/10 moa clicks. So far I like it a lot. |

I had an EXPS3-0 and loved it,with all of these problems I tried the Trijicon MRO,hated it with a passion for the optical shift and distortion, tried the Aimpoint T2 and didn't like the small tube for cowitnessing irons and the slight optical shift,the M4S I tried was better than the T2 but still had the optical shift,the Leupold LCO had the most crisp dot but had a weird optical distortion to it. The best one I've tried is the Mepro RDS,absolutely no magnification, fish eye,tint, or optical distortion. It is the best red dot on the market given its price,durability, and feature set. If you like the Eotech style lens this is the sight for you! I picked up an M5 to go with my RDS during the 30% off sale.

From what I'm seeing in the court filing, the issues with Eotech products will also effect even normal civilian end users who don't really subject their weapons to extreme conditions/environments. Every single one of their tests saw nearly every sight they produce fail the "moisture seal test" even when they were only subjected to sitting in a box. I can't believe with all the chants of "Fuck Troy" here, we don't see a peep about Eotech who has been knowingly defrauding/selling defective products to the consumer market (as well as their government customers) for nearly a decade.

Went ahead and pulled the trigger on a replacement and picked up a Trijicon Reflex 1x42mm before I've even had my refund approved by EOTech.
Did some reading on the Mepro and the Trijicon. Even though the Reflex is more expensive, I like the tritium illumination and larger objective. Also, has better aftermarket support (like LaRue mount) than the Mepro. The Mepro definitely seems like a good, less expensive option though. |

Ive had an eotech 552 since 2005 that has functioned just fine. The issues presented here are clearly disturbing. But i wont be sending mine back as its the only RDS i own. What i want to know is this; if Holosun can put the exact same reticle into a t1 size optic as an LED with a 3 year battery life, why in the hell could a company like eotech not figure it out if not for sheer negligence or incompetence? I have one from 2007 and while shooting it turns off and have noticed a POI problem on winter days. I just got my RMA approved in about 2 hours When did you submit yours if you don't mind me asking? |

[  Lol. I thought ML showed his ass way more in that thread. In fact, I cancelled my order for a Stealth barrel because of his shitty antics. I'm sure he doesn't give a shit but I felt better 
As for Eotech, I've never really been a fan but hearing this makes me think I'm glad I have Aimpoints. |

Does it matter if you haven't experienced any issues yet? Does it matter if you purchased it secondhand but have everything except the original purchase receipt? I really hope that they'll take all sights, considering I bought mine used and it had not paperwork/ box with it 
Well I answer my own question, got an email right after posting that I was approved. So I'm just sending it off in a USPS box. |
