Fellas,
I am new to the Eotech world. Long time Aimpoint user. Will be getting a XPS 3-0 soon and wanted to know any info on scope covers for said RDS. GG&G seems to have a decent one but with goofy writing on the front cover. Anyone using anything else or have feedback on the GG&G product? Thanks,

Yeah was interested more in the fixed flip up style but am interested in other options. Thanks.

I recently picked up an eotech used that had the GG&G covers and quick release already on it. The quick release is pretty nice but the covers seem a little bit flimsy. The back flips up on top of the hood but the front only goes up half way, I'm guessing so that it acts as a sun shade. This has me worrying that it will eventually get snagged and torn off. I believe you have to remove and reinstall the hood to put them on as well. My work rifle doesn't have them it's never seemed to miss them. I probably wouldn't spend my money or time on them.

I have the GG&G "Front Towards Enemy" cover on my XPS 2-0 and really like it. Is it necessary, not really. It's like the flip-up covers on all of my scopes except it doesn't "seal" quite as well. It's very convenient and you don't have to keep track of it like the removable covers. YMMV....

I've never owned one of the GG&G flip-ups, but I have seen a couple of them go tits up during a high round class. I use one of the cheap neoprene scopecoats for storage and transport. Then yank it off and leave it in the case. I've been running an EXPS 3-0 for a while and love it.

You know the concept is probably ok but the retarded shit they put on the covers is a deal breaker. Surprised there is no Zombie version yet.
If they'd offer a plain version, they'd probably sell a lot more.
Edit: nevermind, just saw that they do offer the Zombie crap too.
