there all good. each has it's pros and cons. you'll hear peoples biased opinions on either one. i can search a lot of problems on aimpoint too. i never once had a problem with any of my eotech's so idk. the military uses them both so they both must be pretty damn good sightes.

it also depends on usage...some people get em cuz they are cheaper than aimpoints & price can be a issue...

I can show ya lots of stuff the military uses...cuz it's cheap in bulk...and the more they get the cheaper they are...just cuz the military uses em does not mean they are the end all..

Heck, the military uses ACOG's as wellas Aimpoints...and my old career field was the 1st in the AF to transition from iron sights to a flat top M4 upper & the Aimpoint M68...that's still used quite a few years later...

If you ain't a "door kicker" then you really don't "need" a micro...

Never seen one of em that I can remember....sounds like it's a good one

AR-15 accessories, rifle scopes, red dot sights, aimpoint rifle scopes, Bushnell sells these red dot's & the micro is reported to be a superb value for the $$ Primary Arms

like i said, if the military uses them both, they must be pretty damn good sights. no need to contradict every damn post on this forum.

Dude....just cuz the military uses them does not mean ****...ya have to get deeper than that..

I know a military arms room that has 5 gallon bucket full of broken ARMS mounts...but they keep getting more cuz they are cheap...not cuz they are quality...

Oh and I only contradict posts that I don't agree with & that's not every single post here...

it kinda does mean **** if they choose it. if they wanted cheap bulk they would buy $20 reflex red dots at wal-mart but they don't because they are junk compared to aimpoint and eotech which are way more durable than the $20 sights. they are pretty damn good if out of hundreds of sights the united states military chooses these two sights.

Ok...you are right...I have no idea what the **** I'm talking about...did not spend 20 years in the USAF, did not work/run a Security Forces armory...was not a weapon/ammo/explosive custodian & did not work a Security Police supply......and never ever was I issued **** gear...

i don't care what you did or was issued. i know the military isn't issued the best in everything but in weapons it is fairly high end reliable tough stuff. they don't use $20 plastic red dot sights they choose $2000 acogs because they are tough as ****. they don't drive with cheap *** wal-mart tires on their apc's, they don't put crappy plastic or utg heat guards on their rifles, they don't use chinese made m14's.....why is that? because they need tough reliable gear. not everything they use is hightech nuke proof **** but a lot of it is pretty tough like the sights.
