Eotech cover

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.

I agree with this. I can also see how a Scopecoat may be a better choice for running any kind of high round course.

Looks like the better option to me.

I do agree, they should offer a plain version.

But if I had to choose it would choose the front towards enemy.

Edit: nevermind, just saw that they do offer the Zombie crap too.

I had them on the 512 I had for years. They weren't bad, but really weren't necessary. I didn't bother with them when I upgraded to a 553. The most use they saw was some paintball, but even with that I don't know how the front didn't get ripped off.

I have Scope coats on my EXPS-3 and G33 Magnifier. I have no issues with pulling them off and throwing them in my case. The GG&G covers seem flimsy. to me.

Appreciate the feedback all. Gonna try the GG&G.

So the question is... Which one? I hear the zombie stuff is all the rage. You could even fill in lines with lime green paint!

Jax, I had the GG&G covers (two of them, I believe, for two Eotech XPS's), and after a few weeks of use, the flip-downs tore from the rubber frame that fits under the hood of the Eotech. The hinges are very tiny, fragile, and not well-engineered to stand up to any sort of real use.

If I had it to do over again, I'd go with some kind of slide-on cover that I could put in a pocket when using the rifle.

Just a word of experience from a fellow engineer (I was at the HD course in Moyock with you in 2011).

Have a good'n.

I have to say Jax, the AR that I have the GG&G cover on has been more of a safe queen since I installed it. I certainly bow to the people with more experience actually running the weapon. What they're saying makes sense.

I guess it's fine for the occasional trip to the range like mine. But if you're gonna "work" it, you may want to factor that. Personally, I think I'll look into a Scopecoat type cover to keep in my bag in case I decide to run the weapon hard and the flip-up cover fails. That way I have covered the "cool factor" and practical all at the same time.... WIN WIN!

I also thank everyone for the input.

I have the G&G's on both of my Eotech's (XPS3-2 and 516,) and they have both been pretty solid even with pretty hard use. I think they made a version that had no writing on the cover if that bugged you.
