I have had good luck at Wild West Guns and the little cop shop on Muldoon.

Their prices are pretty much MSRP (which is the best you will do in town I believe).  

I got mine either on ebay or mail order.

Speaking of which, I just sold my HK USC and I am replacing it with a Tommy gun.  I really like my Eotech, but I do not have anything I can use it on now.  I am considering selling it.  It is pristine.  I think it's the 512.  It uses the N batteries and has no NV capabilities.

But boy is it fun to use!  It's like a video game.  I was thinking about strapping it onto my SP89, but it the screen is kinda small for a pistol.  You really need a checkweld to be sure you can always see the reticle.  It is much better on a rifle.

I think I did see them at Sportsmans Whse.

I was thinking about using it on my AR, but I like the ACOG way too much to replace it.

Anyway, it is like new, with a QD thumbscrew.  I'm racking my brain to think if I ever shot with it or not.  I think I sighted it in.  That's about it.  And Sorry, it's the 502 model.  They look to go for around $250 on ebay these days.  

What have you go to trade?

Feel free to PM me.

Sorry, did I write something confusing?

If you are considering an ACOG I cannot recomend anything higher.  I have the TA31F on my AR and it is simply amazing!  The BAC works like a charm and basically makes the sight function like a red-dot until you need the zoom.  It took about 2 minutes of practice to get the hang of it.

Actually if it uses N batteries and does not have night vision its a 511. The AA versions are the 512 and the 552. The advantage of the AA battereies is much greater batteriy live 1100 hours vs 300.

Alaska Tactical 500 Muldoon Road.  Small shop, but decent folks.

Anyway, mine is a Bushnell Scope like this one;

http://www.bushnell.com/products/riflescopes/specs/51-0021.cfm

It uses 2-N batteries.  

And if it matters to anyone I've found that VARTA Batteries last 6 to 10x as long as any others.  I found them when I was searching for camera batts.  Energizers would shoot 2-3 rolls of film.  Vartas about 25 rolls.  It is simply amazing.

So, I'll put my Bushnell up on the EE with some photos in the next day or so.
