Thanks in advance. Am thinking of purchasing one of these and just want to hear what others had to say.

I dont have the particular product your looking for. I have the trijicon night sights on my Dan Wesson. they work great , very easy to see in daylight or low/no light...

Trijicon makes great products.

However, EOTech is the best in my opinion for quick acquisition shooting.

Before you purchase, I would urge you to go to a retailer that offers most of them and try them out yourself. You can also read plenty of reviews on line by simply googling the product name and review.

When I was on ERU (emergency response team) we used a Trijicon halo sight on our mini 14s and it was pretty good out to 100 yards for center mass on a silhouette. Beyond that well... It was fast and needed no battery's to generate the red dot, also had a shelve life of like 20 years if I remember correctly. Not bad but not long reach.

The tri-power was never the big seller that Trijicon thought it would be.

I’ve had three models of ACOGs and they were great (NSN model was a bit dim).

However, the tripower just doesn’t do it for me.
I like my Aimpoints for ruggedness, speed and battery life.
My brothers EoTech 552 is nice and I might try it on my fourth AR.

The EOTech is the better direction.

Standardized on that for the M4geries and SOCOM II. Added the 4x flip magnifier, very quick two eye acquisition with ability to do distance with and without night vision.

The EOTech also survives unscheduled drop-tests very well too.

Yep. Putting a new build together and will probably order the optics/mount from Larue Tactical.

Good choice in mounts, too.

I’ve been a 20+ year user of ARMS mounts (#2, #40, #22, etc, etc.) but Larue has really come out with a better product. My next build will use a larue offset mount and most likely one of their rails. I like their complete “Stealth” lineup, but it’s a bit spendy.
