    A large reticle wouldn't be any good for zombie headshots, wouldn't the smaller dot be more useful?

    Yes, a single AA EOTech with auto dimming and 3 year battery life would be a better way to spend R&D funds.

    I love zombie movies like the best of them but this thing has AFCOM/ASSWEB written all over it.
    The issue is the technology in the eotechs it requires more power, who knows maybe one day holograms and such will be less intensive

    I swear everyone is acting like it took years of R&D to change the reticle and slap one some laser etching, face it this took ery little RD and will make them a lot of money

    Funny thing is that if a brand eeryone here loved did this yall would be all over it.

    If Aimpoint were to change their MOA dot to an MOA "Z" for zombie, they'd be getting the same treatment because it would be stupid. M4C is where bad gun ideas come to get crapped on, good gun ideas get praised, and companies must earn respect.

    A company modifies a successful product to appeal to a certain market, spends very little money do it, and pokes some fun at pop culture while doing it, and some people want to pay for it.

    Companies make stuff people want and those people are free to buy it...or not. Who gives a whoot.

    I get a chuckle out of the zombie themes. I'm not spending money on them, but I get it and find humor in it.

    All seriousness aside, I hear this came out of a small secret order for a DEVGRU team after they learned that the Taliban are deathly afraid of zombies.

    Nope. If Aimpoint was stupid enough to do something like this, I would sit down a send a handwritten letter to them to let them know of my disgust with them.

    Theres a huge difference between and unusable Z reticle and a biohazard one with a 1 moa dot in the center, trust me if aimpoint used the exact same reticle the eotech is people would love it

    They need to make the reticles user tweakable.

    I can see ones with a turban and the 1 moa dot a little below the bottom of the turban being marketed as "terrorist head shot machines" and selling like crazy at gun shows.
