    Red dot magnifiers

    I’ve been looking at a magnifier to pair with an aimpoint, specifically the Eotech G33. I saw that Vortex has one too, curious to how it compares or even other magnifier brands.

    I've been completely satisfied with my G33 behind both my T1, my PRO's, and any of my Eotechs.

    Got a Samson 3.5x last week because they seem to be on closeout everywhere, I paid $206 shipped, and I am completely happy with it,

    Great glass, awesome FOV, mount is pretty nice too. It's quick flip to side and also QD.

    Might be worth a look.

    I'll have to look into it, how is the eye relief on it?

    I want to say it's about 3", maybe a little less.

    Try one before you commit to spending money. Some folks have experienced the magnified dot looking more like a whispy comma than a clearly defined aiming point. It might be from astigmatism, but I'm not sure.
    Where violence is the local language, be fluent.

    I looked through a buddies g33 he had pairs with an Eotech and it wasn’t bad at all. I think the eye relief would take some getting used to, you need to be really close for that one.
