Wow! I wonder what the quality is on these? Doesn't look like it comes from the same production lines as the ones we are used to. The EOTech logo looks huge.

Ordered (to compare quality with older clone).

.....I want one..
or two

holy shit! tell me how it goes!

That would be a dream...too bad I already have an Eotech. Maybe I need another...

wow they finnalyyy got new scopes !!!!

Yeah, they recently got that ACOG with Trijicon trades but it's still the old el-cheapo 1x RDS model and not actually one with any magnification.

Part of me is hoping that laser warning sticker indicates it's actually a multiple point laser powered holosight like the real steel but I know better, it'll just be like the regular clones. Worst case scenario, it has horrible ghosting or perhaps they have no AR coat so you can't see anything through the lens except for reflections.

It's still only $12 cheaper than the ebaybanned model so we'll see.

I hear their shipping takes forever.

its not too bad, In my experice its about as long as ebaybanned.

Rule of thumb from ordering from any of those guys, If you are on a timeline, order from somewhere else.

Seriously though, 40 bucks, thats crazy.

i order from dealextreme often (BEST place for flashlights and batteries) and the worst shipping i have had was 2 weeks, however 6 days it sat in customs because apparently cr123a batteries are "high risk"

If you are in a hurry, you can pay for EMS shipping from dealextreme. EMS is ridiculous (it's what Redwolf uses) and will get you to in days.

This is sort of why I like buying stuff in winter. I can afford to wait and don't really care and many times I completely forget and when it shows up, it's like a nice surprise. When it's in the summer, I'm always rushing to get things together and end up paying more to get things sooner.

Yea, EMS is crazy, that always what i use when i order from Ehobby.

Its crazy, I have had stuff get to me in like under 72 hours before.

that is, unless customs picks it up. I have had stuff sitting in Mississauga customs for over a month, even when it was non-restricted.

even thpugh i have a bushnell holosight, 39 bucks is hard to pass up. i'll do a small comparative review.....when it arrives.

cr123a not available in Canada?...Radio Shack/The Source?

I took the plunge and ordered one.

They are available in Canada... some hardware stores carry them... and if not CP Gear has em.
