    Good price on an Eotech 512 or wait?

    Hey all

    So optics Planet is having a 15% sale and with that I could get the 512 for $365 with free shipping and also no tax. There’s also a $75 mail in rebate with Eotech making the purchase $290. I was wondering if you guys think this is the best price for this optic or should I wait for maybe Black Friday or cyber Monday? Rebate offer ends 11/30.

    For under $300 all said and done, sounds good to me. I may be picking up a second EXPS so anything under $400 for me would be a win.

    Whats another 5% get you on a 20% off sale? Want the hassle of waiting just to see if you might get a 5% or is the difference minor enough to get it now and be done with it? We're talking ~$20 difference.

    I wouldn't do it but I am not an Eotech fan. I have had a few and the 512 is a pig. Why do you think it is on sale with the rebate?

    Interesting, why do you dislike it?

    There's a whole slew of reasons people would choose not to do it. Read back through the optics forum threads. You'll see. I'm still comfortable using them. Sample size of 1.

    I think that's the cheapest you'll see them... even if you wait for black friday, I doubt they'll have any left in stock after this sale and the rebate.

    I snagged a Comp m5 with 15% off... solid deal

    On my LE6920 I have a Vortex Sparc AR red dot I got for like $180 shipped. That’s solid for me so far. I wanted some variety for my new build so that’s why I considered the 512 but I’m not opposed to anything else as long as the price is right.

    If you’re into Eotech, I’d encourage you to look at the EXPS/XPS. The battery mounted perpendicular to the line of recoil id thought to be more durable. Models with the batteries inline with recoil have had problems with connection. I have a 512 that hasn’t had any problems but it was rebuilt by Eotech prior to being issued to me.
