Laser sight vs. Red dot sight

AJ457 · January 27th, 2011, 01:34

The EOtech really doesn't look that big in the pictures though. Mind you I should probably try to get rough measurements with a ruler or something when I get home to see the general size. I currently have an Aimpoint that is massive on the poor MP5. I got it for free with a broken DPMS A17 (P.O.S. from Wally world) that I wanted to mess around with. Is the EOtech something along that size?

If I can find my camera I'll mount it and take a picture for ya.

If you're putting an Eotech on a MP5, get the 551 or XPS models.

Red: That would be much appreciated!

Scurvy: I was checking out both of those models and they don't look any different than the other ones. They're being displayed on M4s and SCARs so I don't know.

I found this pic:

Mind you, it's not as big looking as my NV scope mounted on my A5...

Yes, I've gamed it this way a few times.

That NV scope looks a tad.......large lol but thanks for the pictures. I'm going to go with the Tasco red dot once I find out if my gun needs a new battery or needs to get fixed. Aftermath is a fairly useless company for helping to troubleshoot lol Much appreciated gents. If there are any other suggestions though by all means post em up, my mind is never closed to new ideas.
