StainTrain Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 This thing is miles away from the Specter DR, which is better suited for AR platform. Not a bad price, just understand what you are getting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue109 Posted October 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 My thoughts as well. Looks like a big pig-ish sight that doesn't really do anything special other than being durable. I usually volunteered for the SAW, but I got out before they got fancy optics added on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Ahhhh.... I didn't know about that sight. I thought it was a Specter 1/4x for $600. I almost sold a kidney to some Russian guy... not saying it was MY kidney or just a "donor". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue109 Posted January 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 In case you hadn't heard...Eotech is buying back sights at MSRP+shipping. An aimpoint comp M4 fell into my lap for an insane price a few days ago, and I have nothing to mount it on so I'm considering offing the eotech while the offing is good. hate to jump on the bbandwagon, but I can't pass up an upgrade.http://soldiersystems.net/2015/12/08/l3-communications-eotech-issuing-refunds-for-holographic-weapon-sights/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
392heminut Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Blue, if you don't mind me asking what did you have to give for that Comp M4? I got a new one from a buddy of mine for $400. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue109 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Well, I did an elaborate series of horse trades but the bottom line was about $200 out of my pocket so I'm pretty happy with the deal. Thing must have been collecting dust for a long time because the batteries in the box expired in 2015. Still have nothing against eotech, but this thing is pretty sweet and as tough as it gets so I think I'm jumping ship if they send me an RMA. That cash can be used for some other upgrades Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
392heminut Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Hell of a deal brother! And yeah, they are tough as nails and Tom approved! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pappy1600 Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Never was a fan of EO Tech, always used Aimpoint and Trijicon ACOGS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue109 Posted January 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Got my RMA. Approved for MSRP + $15 on my 512. Asked me not to send it in the box to save on shipping space. have the aimpoint mounted up and I'll zero this weekend.Refunds may take a while. Havnt read of anyone getting a check yet and some folks sent them out a month ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue109 Posted January 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Go to service/repair part of eotech website. When you select your model, a new option appears for returning your sight. Asks you what you paid. Print off the page and pencil in the RMA when they approve you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unforgiven Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 I went and fill out the RMA for both of my Eotech's and got a resopnse for a refund.Will do it while I can.Hope they resolve thier issues 'cause i really liked thier products.

Malig8r Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 Glad to hear that Eotech is doing the right thing. Looks like it's going to cost them a pretty penny unfortunately. I've used them before but only own Aimpoints & Trijicons myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unforgiven Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 Yea,sadly I really liked thier products.The guy at tech support gave me a poor response when I asked him about the ranging points on the .308 model.Points went from 600 to 1,200 but without a variable magnifiier wasn't practical.He never gave me a response on the issues they are currently having.Hope they fix the problems,I might revisit the product line in the future.Might go with an Aimpoint for 5.56 and 1X4 or6 for .308.Which model Aimpoint would you recomend for 5.56 ? How about for absolute co-witness of back up sights brother ? Looked at the Isralies version but the reviews weren't glowing.This will be the only way to get my money back for what I have into these devices.

How about for absolute co-witness of back up sights brother ?I guess that depends on your usage patterns. I like the T1 (NVG compatible) & H1. I think the T2 is overpriced. For the price point the Aimpoint Pro is great (own one and I really like it) although bigger & weighs almost twice as much as the others. I bought a Trijicon MRO and I'm really liking it, great price, great optic although I am still waiting for someone to make lens covers for it.

planeflyer21 Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 Tempting as it is, I've decided to keep the ones I have. They hold zero so far and it appears that if problems occur in the future, Eotech will back their product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
