I really like this red dot. A couple of notes: 1) It’s better than a Trijicon because you can also change the battery without removing the optic from the slide. 2) The Sig Romeo 1 Pro is also a DeltaPoint Pro footprint. Though not as popular as the rmr cut, still there are actually quite a few firearms with this footprint.
It does not appear to be any different than the rest… For the price.
The cost is a flex. Prove it's better than a holosun, I'll wait
Can we please have a universal footprint?! Let's call it F.U. for Footprint universal 🤣 seriously there has be an agreement between these companies to make a F.U. for my long slide 😉
$369 for a battery, piece of glass, and an LED light…..can't do it
No enclosed emitter is going backwards in technology. I don't care if Elon built it. I'll pass. Holosun is tremendously underrated.
The reason its a DPP footprint is because of one thing, Contracts. The P320 (DPP cut) is issued by tons of law enforcement and State/Federal agencies, also our Military. A lot of them like LAPD, FN 509/DPP cut, are starting to issue optics as well but don't want anything that breaks the bank. That's the main market they're going after. They're one of the most successful optics manufacturers in the world, I think they know what they're doing.
SIG optic footprint!
✅Okay ⭐⭐⭐⭐
I really don't get the haters. This optic makes a lot of sense to me from a business perspective.
1. They made it the DPP footprint so it fits Sigs and M17/M18. This not only puts them in a good position to push contracts but also puts their optic in competition with the more expensive but not that well acclaimed DPP.
2. They made an optic that competes with the RMR in design for cheaper. Yes Holosun is cheap as hell but they aren't targeting the same market. Instead of trying to out-Holosun Holosun it makes sense to go for the people who don't want to buy "chinesium" but still want a solid, dependable, and affordable optic. They want to go for the DPP, RMR, Romeo1Pro crowd.
3. Yes they could have made an enclosed emitter optic but those are more expensive and more expensive categories aren't usually the money-makers. It makes sense to try and establish yourself with this first before pivoting into enclosed emitter designs, especially when this thing has probably been in development longer than those have really been taking off.
4. I don't get all the battery life haters AT ALL. 25K hours with a toploading battery is not a big deal. People still take their RMR, the "most popular MRS", off the gun in 2022 to change a battery guys. People are also complaining that it doesn't have shake awake? I LIKE that it stays on all the time. I'd rather it be on all the time and change the $1 toploaded battery once a year then have my sight turning itself off and on all the time. Yes it works great on a lot of optics, but I like the peace of mind that it's always ready to go.
IDK I'm trying to find a reason why this thing isn't a winner and it's pretty tough. People saying it's a great optic for 2018 without acknowledging that in the gun world people buy "old" things all the time. If it's an open emitter but it works well then I think it's a winning product
Cool. Thanks for the video. Now they need to update their xps red dot, please maker it smaller.
Great review lots of demonstration also! Thank you so much wish it was a little cheaper though
Holosun has a locking feature so you don’t accidentally mess with buttons. Horrible footprint no one uses anymore.
Eotech, did y’all just get really drunk at shot show and come up with this idea?
I'll be impressed when they come out with a micrro-holographic sight. 😁
They should’ve come out with a tiny exps that mounts to the top of the pistol like an Acro. Lol
It's cool that you're able to get higher end stuff like this to make videos about, but at the end of the day I am here for budget gear reviews. I can go anywhere to hear about the latest outdated-when-it-releases EOtech or Trijicon release.
Edit: Partway through and man the other commenters are on point this thing offers zero compelling reason to buy besides the branding. You buy the trijicon rmr because it's bombproof at least. I'd like to see a Sage review on this with drop tests.
Looks kinda big for a micro…
This is a very overglorified optic on paper. Does everything other manufacturers been doing for years. Eotech imo missed the opportunity to actually innovate. But they prolly competing for a contract that’s why it’s footprint is the way it is
it's made like that to fit the military m17 and m18
No rmr footprint. No shake awake. No closed emitter model on launch. No thanks.
Is there ever anything you don't like you're a fan boy for everybody this thing is huge on a gun I would never buy it mounted use it etc
Military contracts on P320 are for the pro.
When shooting into the windshield I would go for the driver 1st…
The footprint is a deltapoint style so it’ll fit the p320/m13 and thus be a contender for army issue.
Little late I'd say. I'd wait for the EPS and EPS carry
Yeah I’ll never be buying one due to the foot print
👍🇺🇲
I can't wait to get mine
I think EO tech has been on life-support trading off 20+ year old technology on their other red dots and has not kept up with the times and has basically priced themselves out of the market because they want top dollar for 20 year old design, The fact that they are using the DeltaPoint footprint shows how out of touch they are
So it: has a non standard footprint, has a shorter battery life, and cost more than the competition….ok good luck with that.
It's about time.
Thank you
Always love more options in the market and this looks like a decent one
The made the Delta Point Pro footprint to get apart of that P320 market.
Some of these optics are as much as or more than an actual gun. I'll save my $ and just buy more ammo to get better at aiming with irons…
