The Tactical Rifleman considers the EOTech Greendot as the best CQB WeaponSight... "If you are watching the gun industry, like at SHOT Show next week, you’ll be hearing that EOTech is back in the “Good Graces” of SOCOM. Why? Well, because after all the tests, and all the years of bad media and recalls; EOTech is still just BETTER than the other red-dot sights out there."
WhatAreYouBuyen checks out a US$35 EOTech replica, and it looks like it's a real good one that you might want to use this with your airsoft gun...

Whilst many in airsoft are just replicas of the real deal gear, acccessories, and guns it always a question if they are good copies. In many cases they are not but some are do it quite good in terms of external features. This also happens to optics as well in which they look good externally but rarely maintain the zero.
The Wise Men Company compares the affordable Holosun 510c to the more expensive 512 holosight from EOTech in this video... "Both of these optics are great just for the record but Holosun 510c has the EO Tech 512 beat in a number of areas. These two optics do use different technologies. The Holosun 510c is loaded with features that a lot of paying customers desire from an optic and it is all at lower price point compared to the EO Tech 512.
EOTech took a big hit with regards to the issue of the POI Shift, issuing refunds to owners. The issue means that when due to conditions such as environmental, the zeroed in EOTech loses the zero. In this EOTech review by Garand Thumb, who loves EOTech due to is reticles, will have the company redeemed itself?
