Suggestions for AR sight

[inspectorgadget]

Hey guys,

I am looking for some suggestions. I am looking for a red/green dot sight with drop compensation. If anyone can help me out here I would really appreciate it.

Thanks

Eotech.

Aimpoint will be offering one in the future as well.

Eotech probably great but outrageously expensive compared to an Aimpoint. OP should put in a price range to make a valid comparison.

I'm not sure where you are shopping but everywhere I have looked the eotechs tend to be cheaper. Now on the red/green It could go either way. But my preference would have to be with eotech. That 1 moa dot paired with 65 moa ring does not leave just a whole lot to be desired in my book except for maybe longer battery life. Which aimpoint beats hands down.

I got the EOTech MPO package from sportoptics.com for around $800 it came with the EOTech 557 and 3x magnifier with flip to side mount, they do not have that one anymore but they have the MPO II package for $870 that comes with the EOTech EXPS3-4 and magnifier EoTech Multi Purpose Optic II Combo Kit EXPS3-4 & 3X Magnifier w/ Flip to Side Mount. The package is pretty cool but everyone is different, what I really like is the reticle on the EOTech, looks pretty standard non magnified but has the tick marks when magnified.

Another place to look is www.valhallaarmory.com
They do a lot of starter sets and every Thurs. send out a "Thor's Day Special" email with stuff priced to move!

My gun shop of choice is www.cypressarmory.com
I haven't found anyone that could touch John's price on my EoTech 553.

EOTech or Aimpoint.

ACOG's dont use batteries, they are on the pricey side... alternatively, I have had a good experience with the Vortex Strikefire... It has both Red AND Green dots and is less than half the price of an Aimpoint or Eotech...My 2 Cents.
