Give us more details. The minimum people will need to start giving suggestions are the basics

What type of gun?
What model EOTech do you own?
What will it be used for? (i.e. Only at the range, HD, hunting, etc)
What are the typical distances you use?
What magnification are you looking for?
What is your price range?

What type of gun?
M&P 15

What model EOTech do you own?
I think a 512 but not too sure. Ill check when i get home.

What will it be used for? (i.e. Only at the range, HD, hunting, etc)
Mostly range use. A good friend is a Swat sniper and 2 other friends and my cousin are police officers so i shoot alot with them.

What are the typical distances you use?
100 yards maybe 200 at most.

What magnification are you looking for? 2X-3X would be good.

What is your price range?
Price really dosnt matter but id like to stay around $500-$700.

Since you're already running Eotech and have a good budget, you might want to check out the new G33 magnifier they have coming out soon. Shorter, lighter, an adjustable diopter and an improved flip-to-side mount. Might be worth a consideration next to the previously recommended Aimpoint 3x.

This is a good magnifier, but in another month or so, Eotech will be releasing their G33 magnifier, which will be the same price as the G23, but reportedly much better.

I did not know eotech was coming out with a new mag. I would check that out too.
I have an aimpoint 3x that I run behind a t-1 and it is of great quality. Clear glass, and all. I love it.
