I wondering if the Eotech magnifier will work with the Aimpoint or vice versa with the use of different mounts and risers to get them to the same level?
What do you guys think?

Yes they will work if you use LaRue mounts for both.

It can be done in two ways

1) Eotech in a LaRue Eotech Mount then use Short 3X magnifier mount from LaRue and mount it on a little piece of rail at the back of the Eotech Mount.

2) Eotech in a Larue Eotech Mount then use Tall 3X maginifier mount from LaRue mounted behind the Eotech on the receiver rail.

Hope it helps

I'm going with set up #2 so I can use the magnifier for my Aimpoint as well.

just my .02 cents but, man i bought a aimpoint 3x mag for my eothingy used it a couple of times and back into my gear pocket. 1 moa center dot will reach out to man size targets to 400yds no problem consistently. mind your hold over and windage.

i'll still keep my 3x, nice to have just in case i wanna do some varmit hunting.

damn i do wish the battery would last longer ...... but give and take.
