    Which optic for my new Daniel Defense V5 LW

    Newbie to this forum guys. However, I do have thousands of posts on other sights. I have 2 M4's. I have a S&W X Model that is a nice rifle, it had an Aimpoint PRO on it. I have just bought a Daniel Defense V5 LW that I absolutely love. I have temporarily taken the Aimpoint off of the S&W and put it on my DD. I am about to buy another red dot to put on the DD. I am set one either another Aimpoint (most likely a Micro) or an Eotech EXPS2-0. I am going to put the PRO back on the S&W. Then, the DD will be used for home defense as well as range shooting and maybe some hunting, because it may be a little while, but I am going to put a 3x magnifier on the DD, no matter which optic I decide on. I love the battery life of the Aimpoint, and I love the reticle on the Eotech. I have heard that the Eotech's work a little better with a 3x Magnifier, but I don't have enough trigger time using a magnifier to know for sure. Which optic would you would you go with if you were me in this situation? Thanks! Glad to be on here guys!

    An Eotech reticle with Aimpoint battery life would be awesome, until then I'm sticking with Aimpoints.

    Aimpoints are all I have on my ARs right now. Thinking carefully about aquiring an ACOG for one of them though.

    I can not understand why anyone buys Eotechs at all.

    I see them on guns owned by guys who really should know better.
