EXPS2-2.

Man I can't wait for mine...It will be here tomorrow. I'm replacing my 553 with this thing, so I'm interested to see if I can feel any weight difference, as the EXPS is about half the weight of the 553. I'm doing a class over the weekend, so I should be able to wring it out pretty well.
Congrats OP. Good looking sight and rifle. |

It was a pondering decision between the two but preferred the 2-2. |
| Very interesting that EOTech released a EXPS2-2 version. When the EXPS line was originally slated for release there was only the EXPS3-0 or EXPS3-2 (both NV comp) not 2-0's or 2-2's. Nothing on my pice list even shows a non NV model nor does the L-3 EOTecg website!?! |

Got mine in today––pics will be forthcoming.
I have owned a number of different EOTech models, and this one is the nicest, most 'quality-feeling' model I've owned. The throw lever is nicer than I thought it was going to be and feels solid. It looks a little homely, but I dig it. |

I really like the lower 1/3rd set up––its what sold me on the 553 in the first place back in the day. The rifle I put this on is my duty / patrol rifle, and I like to store it with my BUIS in the up / deployed position so I've always got something to look at in case the RDS goes down or I don't have time to deploy it, and the lower 1/3rd gives a more uncluttered picture through the sight. ETA. Photobucket has been down for the last few hours, but I'll get some pics up when its back working. ETA Pic

I was having trouble with Photobucket when I posted these picks. |

Yup...Quite a bit lighter, and takes up half the rail space of the 553 it replaced. The throw lever is pretty nice too––not that I ever had any problems with the SWAN throw levers on the 553, but this mount feels much sturdier, and it incorporates a lock to prevent accidental opening. |
