I can't believe some of you drive 3 or more hours to come to these shoots.  This is my normal club and it takes me about 15 minutes to get there.  Cudos to you travelers.

@Hill_monkey

Here was that ETS Loader I was talking about tonight.  Says it works for MP5 mags

Oh and the MP5 was tits to shoot.  Zero recoil even in a non-braced pistol version.  Plus super quiet.

Weight, reticle, controls.

I really like the EXPS3, but after using it enough nights I've found weaknesses that a different optic could remedy.

Hey friends, there is another night shoot / Machine Gun shoot this weekend.  Its highly unlikely Ill be able to attend this months due to having to set up my daughters unicorn birthday bash party and changing out optics on my night gun this week.

Im not sure on the details of the machine gun shoot pricing part, hopefully @Hill_monkey will be able to provide some info on that.

This is what I'm seeing.

Everything has been approved for our shoot so here is the pricing for the rental, ammo and the guns for the Feb 5th shoot. Will shoot the mg's from 4-6pm. Night shoot activities will start at 6pm. Cost of night shoot is the usual $20.

$100 for 50 rounds on the M60 or 240B, and $90 for 50 rounds on the M249 SAW.

The original MG plan is cancelled, whoever was bringing them is not making it out due to the weather, per Zuccbook.

Night shoot still plans are still good to go.

eta: There is now a plan in place for MGS rental, go see FB

If no FB, bring $$ and or standard factory ammo to shoot

What's the weakness you noticed?  I run an EXPS-3 and I've been pretty pleased with it so far.  I haven't really shot it under NODs though, being I don't own any....yet.  

I just wanted to see if it was something I noticed too or was completely oblivious to.

Buttons suck tbh. It was a pain to manipulate in the cold and the circle ended up obscuring too much of my target at times. Plus the gun overall was very heavy and I shaved off about 8oz.

I've always strongly preferred Aimpoints to EOTechs. Got a buddy who always preferred EOTech. Like you said, I felt the reticle obscured too much target and was just unnecessarily complicated. I liked the single dot of my Aimpoints. Also always felt the Aimpoints were a lot more robust.

That said, since I got NV I did end up buying an EOTech EXPS3 and I do like it better for NV use, especially in the woods; I find the reticle just pops a lot better. I have an Aimpoint T2 also though, haven't used it a lot yet. In fact I think all the shooting I've done with that so far has been on a suppressed CZ452 plinking at steel at night, which is a lot of fun btw.
