Now I know I was not in error based on these discussions, but that the sight has parallax error when moving the dot right or left of center.

I would have to see scientific proof of this before I'd agree that this is anything but [BS] or shooter error. I have NO such problems with mine. Every sight that lists the EoTech says the same thing, 100% parallax free. Try putting the gun in a shooting vice aimed right at your target. Then move your viewing angle so the dot in not in the center of the window. The dot remains EXACTLY on the target.
