I am looking into getting a Eotech.  In the future I may want to get one of the new magnifiers that they are coming out with.  Are all the Eotech compatible with this?  Or just the newer 553's?

I have an ARMS 40L on my Colt M-4, I assume that this will co-withness with all Eotechs....

Thanks in advance.

IIRC they are all compatible but I'm only about 75% sure on that.

According to this thread all EOTech models are compatible with their new magnifier models.

All BUIS should have an absolute co-witness with EOTechs without mounts except the 553 which has a built in mount, with that model and EOTechs with optional mounts they have a lower 1/3 co-witness.

Thanks

And the only difference between the military and civilian ones is the night vision compatibility, right?

don't think in concept of military and civiilan.

just about ALL eotechs are "marked" as  LEO/MIL only.
