MODEL 557 EOTech



The new 557.AR223 has been developed to optimize the functionality of the HWS. The buttons have been moved from the back to the left side for instant access, allowing a magnifier, night vision, or a back up iron sight to fit closely to the HWS body. This new button position allows the user to operate the HWS function switches easier than ever before. Additionally, a portion of the front base has been raised to allow the sight to fit over standard hand guards found on many M-4 or M-16 style weapons. The 557.AR223 is configured with a new ballistic matching reticle image for the M4 carbine. The battle tested circle/dot reticle will be offered along with a series of 1 MOA aiming dots that are vertically aligned and calibrated specifically for the ballistic drop of .223 caliber ammunition. The reticle provides 4 aiming dots for target distances of 0-300m, 400m, 500m, and 600m.



Key features:

• Vastly improved accuracy and target identification at longer distances

• Ballistic matched reticle image for .223 ammunition (M4) out to 600m

• Modified base designed to fit over standard hand guards.

• Gen I-IV night vision compatibility – with or without 4X scope

• Meets stringent military specifications

• Submersible to 33 ft water depth


Note the side access buttons are designed to operate with the MPO (Multi Purpose Optic)

That's a sweet setup, but my 552/Poorboy combo will hold me over fine. I really dig those side buttons though!

Interesting.  Now, if only they would hook up with Larue for a mounting solution...

Seriously... if only they would make the magnifier reasonably priced and design it to fit in a 30mm mount... That would make me a happy camper.

You can get the 557 and the 4X magnifier for 999 fixed mount or 1099 flip mount..  Seems like a pretty good deal if you are in the market for both.

If only they'd replaced the push buttons w/a rotary switch! (sigh...)

I may consider abandoning my first Aimpoint purchase for one of these instead.
