Why do we have a surplus of ACOG and EOTech pictures but we have hardly any of what it looks like through an Aimpoint? :)... Can some of you Aimpoint owners help me out... I'm in the midst of this Aimpoint/EOTech debate and i'm trying to keep an open mind :).. Thanks for your help! Jared |

Troy's right, this small project turned out to be just a little tricky. Hopefully the pics are good enough but here's one of my M2's with a view through a killflash. I would like to note that the dot and the ARD are much clearer in real life than on film....Er...Pretend film I guess in this day and age.

| Tweak, I suspect it has to do with "traditional" scopes. IIRC my aimpoint manual said that this was how to do it UNLESS you were left handed or something along those lines. The fact is that as long as the axis is correct it does't really matter which side the windage/elevation is on as long as one is top dead center. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. |

It is an outstanding carbine setup. I cant help you with the aimpoint/EOtech debate but I can say this set up has served me well. |

A poster below your original post has a good picture as an example. |

Quoted: The switch is placed on the far side to prevent the switch from being activated/adjusted when the rifle is hung on a 3-point sling. Ah, I can see how that might happen. It's not a concern with my set up so I have the switch on the left where my non firing thumb can turn it on. I ground a notch in the knob (where the dot is) so I could feel the position of the knob at night. Well, at least my Aimpoint is going to SHOT. It'll be on the Valkyrie Arms DeLisle 2000 prototype. |
