| I was looking at purchasing a EOtech with a single 1moa dot for a fun at the range optic for various rimfires and maybe a pistol. Anyone have any experience with one? |

DEL-TON had an email flyer sale a couple weeks ago for 10% off and I ordered a 511 (I have a pile of N-cells for my HP calculator) on the spur of the moment. $335 including shipping. I got a chance to test it out yesterday on an AR. I like it a LOT. The 1-MOA dot is very small, the controls are easy to use, and the adjustments are positive. The outer ring is segmented and not a solid-line circle like the EOTech website. I'm a little disappointed in that, but expected it from previous reviews here. This sight seems like it would be a little large for a pistol, regardless of the mounting issues; I would further solicit opinions on this configuration. Seems like a LOT of expense for a rimfire. There are some reasonable $30-$60 red dots out there (but not with 1 MOA dots) that would be a better fit. |
