I own an Eotech 553, Aimpoint M4s and Aimpoint ML2. I hate the Eotech but thats just my

opinion. For some reason the dots on the Aimpoints are a lot more pronounced. The Eotech

looks like a comma to me. I would take a look at both and buy the one that works for you.

Im not fighting taliban in the Stan, i have seen pictures of the reticle on the Aimpoints and the battery life is impressive, and the look better to the Eotechs to me, but my point is i dont belive on spending more on a scope than i did on the gun ( unless im a sniper )

Ford vs. Chevy.  Both are good sights.

I have 2 eotech's and zero Aimpoints but if I were going to buy another red dot today it would be an Aimpoint due to battery life.

I own an AimPoint CompM2 and an Eotech. Both seem to be comparable and in the same league. I never did buy into the fanboy nonsense. Look at both and decide for yourself. To buy a new site today I would give a hard look to the AimPoint Pro. It seems to strike a nice balance between quality, price, and battery life.

With the release of the Aimpoint PRO it is a no brainer.

Its cheaper than any Eotech, 30x the battery life, and it won't fall off your gun if you use the stock mount.

i have a 512, a 517 and 2 R-1's

I like the 517

I curently have an XPS-2 and a ML-3.

I like them both.

When I need another RDS, it'll probably be an Aimpoint.

I like the Eotech.  Better sight picture, better recticle, just as durable and used by the military also and you can get a magnifier for it that costs less than the Aimpoint.
