Just saw this for the millionth time and was wondering; is the reason people can't type EO tech because they are stupid or because they just can't cope with the change of technology from a tubed sight to something without a tube? It really isn't a rediculous concept-- a reflex sight that doesn't have a tube. I know that's harshly worded but honestly I don't see people saying ATHINGY in referrence to aimpoints, flippymount for LaRue throwlever, or flipydoodad in referrence to a rear BUIS. |
I have wandering eyes, man, that got me in trouble. But not anymore.......  Theres only a few things I need, thats my AR, my EOtech, and my lamp. Oh yeah, my AR15.com

AS THE COINER OF THE PHRASE "EOTHING", PLUS FOUNDER AND ORIGINAL PRESIDENT OF THE EOTECH HATER'S CLUB, I WILL COME CLEAN. IT WAS I. AFTER SEVERAL YEARS OF USING AIMPOINTS TO GOOD EFFECT, I COULD SEE NOTHING I LIKED ABOUT THE EARLY HOLOSIGHTS. BUT, EOTECH DESIGN HAS MATURED. MAYBE I HAVE, TOO, JUST A LITTLE. I NOW RUN EOTECH 552'S AS WELL AS AIMPOINTS. I JUST HATE ADMITTING IT WHEN I AM WRONG .... WES GRANT M.S.T.N. AIMPOINT DEALER/SHOOTER EOTHING DEALER/SHOOTER |

It's my EOTech, I paid for it, I like it, and I can call it an EOThingie if I want to! Quite frankly, I didn't consider it a derrogatory nickname. I tend to lean more towards the creative and literary side of the thinking spectrum, therefore I get bored reading and writing the same word redundantly, so prefer to use alternate wording whenever available. It's just another option in the (already brimming) nickname hat, no reason for insults. Middy, mid, shorty, Dissy, RECCE, SPRbine, Bushy, Oly, LT... None of those cause me to insinuate anyone's lack of intelligence or intolerance.

I need to get used to the magpul it's probably a better stock. The only problem I see with the EO is that it's so easy to use it's hard to call it training. I mean trying to go from right to left hand and then left hand with the Eo tech to iron sights it makes me feel like I've suddenly crippled myself. |
JERK!  Maybe we should start calling AR15's something like [pirate] arrrrr ten and five's [/pirate] |
