….. or is it Aimpoint vs. EOTECH? That’s a personal decision that I alone must make, and have!
As a noobie to the forum, I’ve read the threads ranging from ammo to magazines to optics ……. Availability vs. backorder……. Mfg vs. Mfg . . . . .223 vs. 5.56 . . . 1:7 vs. 1:9 . . . Pros & Cons . . . . Do I “zero” in my AR @ 25 yards, 50 or 100? (NOTE: I still remember the 1000 inch line @ Edson range from 35 years back - some things you just don’t forget.) The list is endless, as well as the ones exercising their rights of FOS under the 1st A. This forum provides a wealth of information, reviews and opinions, all of which has been helpful in my purchasing decision(s) over the years. •S&W M&P15OR 16” 1:9 •EOTech 516 & 3X.FXD •Magpul MIAD & a full complement of 20 – 30 round Pmags. •Cproducts/Brownells/NHMTG – 30’s •Daniel Defense offset PAK mount w/Surefire LED •Troy BUIS & MRF 7” rail forearm •Prvi Partisan/Federal/Winchester/PMC/Hornady •Pelican case(s) – the thread on cutting the foam was extremely helpful. •Beretta M9 I am now looking forward to my 1st build, and I’m sure I’ll rely heavily on the knowledge and experience of the members here. Thanks AR15.COM . . . . . Semper Fi |

You may want to check in the optics forum but my choice is an Aimpoint.
The battery life on the Eotechs are horrible and There have been many reports of them just falling off of rifles in use. http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=18&t=420632 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=18&t=421844 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=18&t=421848 |
