    • Fantastic optic
Style: 518.A65
There's a reason EOTech and Aimpoint are gold standards for laser optics. The 518 provides excellent and quick target acquisition with its large, anti-reflection window and thin surrounding metal frame. Like all EOTech sights, the reticle is parallax-free, meaning that it points where the barrel does, even if your eye isn't right behind it. Lots seem to complain that EOTech reticles look "fuzzy", but that's usually for one or two reasons: 1. The brightness is set too high for your current environment, which causes the reticle to "bleed" light around the edges. 2. You need to see an optometrist. The hologram technology causes those with sub-par vision to see a fuzzy sight. Even though I'm nearsighted (so objects close to me usually look clear), looking through it with and without my contacts produces a night and day difference in the clarity of the reticle. Despite its hefty price, this optic feels like it was worth every cent. Features I love about this model in particular: - The quick-detach system is fantastic - you can attach and remove it from your rails in seconds, and it always seems to hold zero. - The side-mounted brightness buttons allow you to adjust it with your left hand, even when you have your rifle up. ... show more

    • The best just got better.
Style: 518.A65
Been a fan of this brand for years and this new model is going to keep it that way. I've read a few articles on how EOTechs aren't holding at sub arctic temperatures or some nonsense like that, but I don't care. I use this on a 12 gauge and my AK47, roughly 10000 rounds a year. I don't run obstacle courses or submerge it in water, I just go out in the woods or quarries and shoot a bunch of stuff with my friends. I have not used this site farther than 125 meters away, but to that distance I can shoot DVDs out of your hand all day. Easy to zero in and even detaching multiple times it still holds with no issues. I don't mind the size of this, because I'd rather purchase AA batteries than those little ones for the price. Aimpoint fanboys, I don't plan on leaving my gun sights on for 500+ hours without turning it off, so that's not a selling point or an argument. If anything, I feel that not turning it off makes you a negligent shooter and anything said invalid. Great accessory for casual to hardcore shooters. The price is hefty but well worth it. I've seen plenty of the 200ish dollar imitation sights break after being dropped or lose zeroes after swapping weapons. Never had that issue with any EOTech I've ever owned but if I do, I promise to come back and edit this review with pictures/video evidence. ... show more

    • Excellent.

Excellent optic, This seller is selling legit models, first thing I checked when I got it as there are more then a few frauds pushing crap like that. The controls on the side is a nice feature, and the QD mount is also quite nice. It will pull a 1/3 Co-Witness with Iron Sights using the mount it comes with. If you don't know what that means, Google man, Google. It sits tight, and comes off in a hurry if you need and is every bit as reliable as the 512. ... show more

    • It's eotech, they have an excellent reputation for a reason. :)
Style: 518.A65
This is my first holographic sight and I really like it. Worth the money. It's a little fuzy inside, but when outside, it clears up a bit. Very sturdy construction. Very easy to take on and off, and has kept it's zero so far. Having the buttons on the side makes turning on/off and adjusting very easy, even in the low ready position. It has been working out very well in the tac-irons division of 3Gun. ... show more

Looks great on my M4 and works flawlessly. I’m able to hit a 12” steel plate at 200 yards consistently. Mounting was easy and battery life is excellent. The best feature is the one MOA dot surrounded by the larger illuminated ring. It helps you acquire the target quickly but doesn’t obscure small targets at long range. There is no magnification. ... show more

    • Quick Aim Easy Adjustment
Style: 518.A65
The sight comes packaged in a sturdy plastic case and includes batteries. After laser bore sighting the weapon I was able to zero this sight with 6 rounds at 36 yards. I would have preferred the adjustment dials to have a more solid click but that wasn't a real problem. The QD mount is solid and removes easily and it has a lockout button that prevents accidental actuation of the QD lever. I found that it is best to mount the sight and tighten the screw then remove the sight and turn the screw another notch before putting the sight back on. The sight retained zero after detachment and reattachment. The sight glass remained nice and clear even after it was touched with dirty hands. The reticle edges aren't as crisp as I thought they would be but this is my first HWS so I didn't really know what to expect. It has a wide range of adjustment that allowed me to see it on a white target on a sunny day while also turning it down enough to use in my house at night. The sight is a bit bulky but I have it mounted on a rifle with a 18" barrel and the ability to use AA batteries is nice. If i were mounting this sight on a carbine I would probably choose the shorter XPS2. ... show more
