| I'm looking for a holographic or red dot for my AR15. I'm looking at aimshot and sightmark holographic sights and comparing them to EO techs. I am no expert on red dots so I am turning to the hive to help. Are EOs worth the price difference. I see about a $300 gap between them and I just do not see it. Can you guys give some insight? Thank you. |

Buy once, cry once. If you intend any hard use at all, it's totally worth the extra money.
If you are just going to plink from a bench then you can probably get by with the cheapie. -eta- My eotechs have held up to a beating from predator hunting and three gun matches. The first time you accidentally slam that cheap sight into a wall, tree ,truck,etc you will see where the extra $$ goes. |

Quoted: I would use it for plinking and hunting. I tend to baby my firearms but accidents do happen. I am leaning towards the EO. I'll look in the EE and at the next gun show coming up. Thank you for the info guys. The past few day on EE I have seen great deals with Eotechs. |
| EO have unique advantage you don't have to find the dot, no matter where you look the dot is there. Not so with most red dot sights, just watch chicken pecking most red dot user to trying to find the dot. EO have huge field of view. the only down side is the EO are big. |
