This is a bench-top review of the EOTech EXPS3-4 HWS (Holographic Weapon Sight). This sight has a 4 dot reticle pattern for a BDC for the 5.56mm M855 cartridge. This sight is available at Optics Planet. It retails for $599 US.

Your lighting looks green to white balance to balance out the fluorescent lights next time you should have video
I thought the instructions say to zero it at 200
water proof to 300 meters "shit" how handy is that

Great review I love the close ups and how everything is explained in detail. I should be getting mine on Monday.
great video, thanks for uploading. Â When you're shooting something more "close range" (something where you don't 'need' the magnifier), do the 4 dots become more distracting than a single dot? Â I assume that distraction goes away when you're using a magnifier and can see more of your target??
Would it fit on a remington acr?
Nicely done. Thanks!
The XPS is nice, but lacks the integrated QD mount, and 7mm riser. Therefore it is absolute co-witness and not lower 1/3rd co-witness like the EXPS. The NV thing is a biggie in cost btw.
not right its Submersible to 33 feet
I plan on getting a AN/PVS-14 soon for it.
This particular sight is to be sighted in at 35/300yds. The next BDC dot is 400 yds, etc. If you zero in at 25, 50, or 100 yds, the BDC dots are kind of useless. I wish I had with for the EXPS3-0. EOtech told me this is mainly to be used with an optic and is not that user friendly without one. Still a great quality unit.
I agree on the NV thing. It was a tax refund purchase. Thanks Uncle Sugar!! I like the BDC dots in this one.
I love this sight but I dont see why I would ever need a NV mode. The 4 dots for xm855 is a nice feature but for $495 I think id rather take the xps2. Same features just lacks the 4 dots and NV mode. Damn, its tempting though but $620 on opticsplanet? Ouch
Your flashlight is fuckin ridiculous
@eyanvenom I haven't tried it. I am using a Leopould 1.5-5x28mm scope as my magnifier…and it works!!
Is there a way to remove the 7mm riser from the magnifier and the EXPS2?
@CrashPhistfight I'm in a very similar situation as you, except I'm contemplating the XPS2-2 or XPS2-0 (2 dots or 1 dot) with the G23 magnifier of course.
Also, do you know if that 7mm riser on the G23 and EXPS models can be removed?
just the kind of review i was lookin for. looks awesome. it's 33ft for depth tho?
@jsig191145acp Thanks! I love building these rifles. The possibilities are endless.
Great Video,
I found it very informative. Although I'm gonna get the non NV version when I order mine in the next few days. Thanks again for the video, btw, you have a very nice AR
Regards,
Joe
@z06ajsecore I don't know. There are a lot of knock off out there.
Just ordered the 512.
Any idea on how to tell if it's a fake?
Got it for $380 on amazon. I gave seen fake ones floating around there and now I'm nerves!!
@joeratti It can be but I got used to it. It's a nice light.
so will this eotech sight co witness with the iron sights.
@MultiSr16 I like the 'widescreen' of the EOTech. I looked at several sights but this one was the best one for my vision.
hahaha my aimpoint m4s will run for 50,000hrs on a AA.., these are cool sihts too though., bushnell is originally the one who came up with this type of sight., eotech bought the rights/patents for these type of sights..
@Delta8559272 your right…it just me
@fisherdigital trijies are almost double what eotechs cost, but with the multiplier its only about 400 difference but the eotech is still a holographic sight at the end of the the day not a fixed 4.
could you tell me what is the diffewrence between the XPS3.0 and the EXPS3.0 is?
EOTech makes good stuff. But for that kind of money I buy Trijicon
Holy weapon light batman, you hunting hogs with that thing? Looks like a nice sight.
Good video and great product.
bushnell holosights marked as made in th US was actually made by L3 communications aka eotecch
i have the EXPS3 with just the one dot in flat dark earth… it is SWEET!
looks like a good system, cool
