JPeel Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Trace, if you want to try one for grins I have the Pro on my 10.5" suppressed gun. You're welcome to take it for a spin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerTrace Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 How are your eyes? Eotech if you're forty and using night vision. Aimpoints are good, but they can look like a bag of grapes if you have vision issues. 1MOA dot on Eotech gets you a headshot every time. I don't think you are going to find any articles by people actually doing this kind of work. Taran and Clint are good friends, but they don't do entry. They do three gun. Battery life is a deal breaker on the Eotech for me. I have one on my issued gun and while I like the reticle, that is all I like. I realize those guys don't do entry work, but they do shoot rifles more than any LEO SWAT guy, so I value their opinion. My real question to them was if there was a variable 1Xwhatever that was as good as a dot when on 1 power. I have no issues with an Aimpoint dot and will most likely go with the PRO because of the price, durability and battery life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garmil Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Check out the holosun 30mm I've also been looking for something similar to the aimpoint pro and debating on getting one of these. http://www.primaryarms.com/Holosun_Technologies_Tube_30mm_Red_Dot_2_MOA_p/hs406a.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stlhead Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 You already know what you want. You are just looking for help justifying it. For a social work gun you want the aim point. Get the pro, the m4, an old m2, a t-1, or a h1. It realy does not matter all that much which one you end up with for your application. It has all the pro's and none of the cons. My personal vote would be a t1 on a seekins mount with a traditional fixed front sight and no rear sight, leave it on 24 - 7 and change the battery on your birthday. But as this is the internet, my opinion is worth nothing more than what you paid for it. good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrispies Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Trace, find a used Aimpoint Comp M4. They are tuff as nails and take a single AA battery that lasts 8 years. 2 MOA dot is really nice. I have used almost every Aimpoint out there and if I could only choose one it would be the Comp M4. Anybody know a good place to pick up a used Comp M4 that isn't... um... "liberated from the military," if you know what I mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
