I met him at the last Mid Mo SCUBA shoot and he is a great guy. He was at the BRC too. I hope he attends next Sat. Again, nice guy.

Had one. IMHO, similar to the superior Bindon Aiming Concept, as used in ACOGS.
Obsolescent, IMHO, and unlike some ACOGS, unusable with NV devices. Combact and sturdy, though. Unless a screaming good deal is offered, I would either upgrade metallic sights to "Ghost-Ring" type, and/or get an ACOG. |

raf,
I would use it for night time only, and want something as light and compact as possible. And for the cost of an ACOG I could buy 6 Armson OEG's at the price I was offered. |

I understand. In that case, I would opt for Tritium front and rear sights, preferably "Ghost-ring" type. YMMV. Cost is roughly the same, and eliminates the RTZ issues attendant in adding/removing the Armson. Again, YMMV. |

I had one. I ended up sending it back. It was fine outside in bright light, but coming inside or during transitional light it was hard to see. If you were in total dark and your eyes were adapted to it, it worked. But loose your night vision, and it was gone. The tritium dot is very small. The OEG part works well and was not the problem for me, just not being able to quickly pick up or see the dot was my beef.

I have always wondered if you have a red dot, and place the objective lense cover on, you can still see the dot, but your vision is occluded. Would this work just like the OEG? Anyone ever tried it? What is the theoretical advantage of the OEG?

I got mines at a bargin. The first red dot scope I own. The great thing is that since it is small and light. Mounting to any firearms and using it is a snap. However, since it is a simple device from long ago. It is already outpaced by the reflex and aimpoints.
