Nice looking first build.

It's going to be tough to find if you drop it in the sand!

Nice build. Whats the barrel length on that? Pretty cool man. Why did you go with the eotech xps3? Just curious as I am in the process of choosing an optic.

The barrel is a Sig Sauer 16" 1-10 twist.
As for selecting the Eotec, I decided to try it because I have a Aimpoint and Trijicon but no Eotec. Also the EXPs-3 is the only one I could find in FDE.
It has a really neat quick attach system too.
I have a Nikon M-223 scope for this gun as well.

How do you like the eotec compared to the aimpoint?

They are both top end devices. The Aimpoint seems to have a more crisp dot. The Eotec on the other hand has a circle around its dot.
I originally purchased the Eotec to go on my Utas UTS-15, but I thought it might serve me better on the AR.
