DNP Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Placing this here for visibility reasons. Not as many people frequent the optics or the sales sections. Followed the link to Impact Guns from the main forum page. They have the 512 for $364 plus shipping right now. Anyone seen that cheaper lately? Seems like a pretty fair deal. Follow the link if anyone goes to purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 That's a smokin' deal on that sight. Snatch that while it's still there. I nailed mine in 2010 at the Ft Belvoir PX for a little cheaper - but EOTech was having an instant counter rebate then, and the PX doesn't charge sales tax. I've honestly never seen a 512 cheaper than that, brother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planeflyer21 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Chief Supply had them at 25% off, which is when I got my second Eotech 512. Ended up being $334 with shipping. But it took 4 months to ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 The 512 is one of the best models they make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue109 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 I was planning on selling my little armasight reflex to fund another 512. already got the QD lever for it. I've tried different RDS and always come back to eotech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planeflyer21 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 I got the GG&G QD for both and their lens cover/sunshade on Liberty's 512. Need to get that cover for the other one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FaRKle! Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) I guess I'm the only one who's had mixed experiences with EOTech's AA line of sights?I had a 552 and went through drained batteries while off and oxidized contacts. No good.XPS/EXPS or bust! Edited January 26, 2015 by FaRKle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a 552 and went through drained batteries while off and oxidized contacts. No good. XPS/EXPS or bust! I think you got a bunk 552. Remember that 512 you found for me on LightFighter? It ran on the same Li AA batteries for 2 years... My brother in law stole it from me, replaced the batteries with the same, and it's still running the same... That's been about 5 years, and it's maybe on the 3rd or 4th set of batteries. I agree though.... The XPS and EXPS are phenominal systems.

planeflyer21 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 so happens I have a cover I pulled off mine. all yours buddy. Thanks brother blue! I think you got a bunk 552. Remember that 512 you found for me on LightFighter? It ran on the same Li AA batteries for 2 years... My brother in law stole it from me, replaced the batteries with the same, and it's still running the same... That's been about 5 years, and it's maybe on the 3rd or 4th set of batteries. I agree though.... The XPS and EXPS are phenominal systems. The batteries initially installed didn't last very long. Put in some Energizer AA. Those died soon. Then put in some Duracell, with some spares in the rifle case. Been going for a year now. The key is to carry spare batteries, then you'll never need them.

blue109 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) I bought a bunch of energizer lithium AAs on black Friday. bestbuy had them pretty cheap. 2 in the sight. 2 in the grip. 2 in the stock. ought to be GTG for a while. I think its rated for 1000 hours on lithium. Edited January 26, 2015 by blue109 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rsquared Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 I've still got the original batts (2 years) in one of my 553's that I have on my OSW (FAL). But I also don't run that one very often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
