I was wondering who here has actually had a problem with an OLDER revision Eo-Tech? What kind of problems did you have/are you having?
I've got a 552 Revision "C"(
yep, there is such a critter!) I bought it just over 2 years ago from a vendor here on ar15.com. I have it mounted on my AR.
I like the sight a bunch, but...it seems to "eat" batteries when the sight isn't in use and stored in my safe. The batteries will run down, even though the sight is not in use. Now, I don't mind changing batteries, but not when I don't get to use the sight.
The second problem I've been having is with zeroing. I can get it pretty damn close, but when I go to make that final adjustment to make the POA/POI "perfect", it'll make a sizeable jump and I'll have to start over again. When I've got it "close", it gives acceptable results out to about 150 yards...I'd like to do better.
I've also got a 552 Revision "F" on my M1A and have had
NO problems with it at all.
Before anyone jumps in and says, "You shoulda got an Aimpoint!!!", keep in mind that I did try an Aimpoint and I didn't like it at all.
Should I contact EO-Tech and see if they'll do anything(have they done anything to fix the older revisions in the past?) or am I just out of luck?
