    Eotech still a no-go or?

    Eurooptic I found had the best deal on the for the EXPS.

    Edit: ignore my Eurooptic suggestion, it looks like the price went up from what I paid, (on 4/11/18) $449, now it looks like they jumped to $536

    OPMOD Eotech EXPS 2-0 on sale at Optics Planet for for $479. The OPMOD Eotech EXPS 2-0 (one or two-dot) is an Eotech EXPS 3-0 without night vision. Otherwise, same chassis and specs. As above, it has a lifetime warranty. Mine is 8 years old in pretty hard use and lost its nitrogen. Eotech agreed to fix it for me for free, but Optics Planet just sent me a brand new one to replace it.

    I picked up my first Eotech last month (EXP2-0) and it is has fast become my favorite. I have been working hard on shooting with both eyes open but with this optic it is very easy. It is probably a net of 5 oz heavier than my prior set up so the additional weight is not really an issue at this point. With all the sales this weekend I would say if you are looking at one to go for it!

    I'd be cautious with europtic. I ordered a EXPS3-4 from them. They have the new Logo picture on website but sent me an old 2015 model. Made me pay shipping both ways even though it clearly advertised the new version. Thankfully I had a pleasant and professional transaction with Sport Optics to get an updated version at a lower price

    Similar experience here but I was talking with them on the website chat feature and they did admit they were the older version. I had been reasearching Eotech pricing for a couple weeks at that time so they lower price seemed too good to be true. I endned up purchasing from Sport Optics and got one with a Dec ‘17 production date.

    Eotech has grown on me even after the thermal drift scandal. Honestly, most of us are never going to use it at the extremes required to cause an issue anyway. And that's coming from a guy who lives in Texas...

    Definitely get the later production ones with the new logo as I was told by Eotech they have done various "rolling changes".

    Glad they owned up to it in chat. I conversed via email where they claimed this was the most recent shipment from eotech with a 2015 manufacture date, lol

    I think it is really a matter of preference. I tried to like the Eotech system, but found the reticle to be so much clutter in my field of view. I much prefer the simplicity of the simple red dot and Aimpoint is my optic of choice. Lots of good options out there, but finally, at the end of the day, to each his own. I had just one too many problems with Eotechs, shutting off, winking out on me, and I saw guys around me using them have failures. Never saw an Aimpoint go down, but they just keep on running.
