Im the odd ball out here; I’m not a fan of green reticle.I just wish they’d do a green reticle.
Harder for me to pick up in bright light and or at lower settings.

I do well with red or green. All my shotguns and carbines are red, all my handguns are green. No reason for that other than I was a late bloomer when it came to handgun dots and the first one I put on a handgun also happened to be my first green one and I liked it so all subsequent handgun optics have been 507GR, either K or C. All my long guns are already set up, but if I get any new optics they'll be green. I'd have a green 507 on my 1301 except my pal @SimonRL hooked me up with a red one on the cheap.Im the odd ball out here; I’m not a fan of green reticle.

Agreed, I prefer green as well. I wish Eotech would offer more models in green, and introduce some goddamn shake-awake feature.I just wish they’d do a green reticle.
Shake awake is a must for me. I’m not sold on Eotech either. In fact a few “ operators” I know straight up told me they’d take a Holosun into combat before an Eotech. Then the dude showed me one of his SBRs that had the “ Bouncing reticle”. I could chalk that up to every company lets a lemon slip by once in awhile, but Eotech battery life sucks too. I think my next optic, which will go on a BCM, will be an Aimpoint.Agreed, I prefer green as well. I wish Eotech would offer more models in green, and introduce some goddamn shake-awake feature.

Amen on the shake awake!Agreed, I prefer green as well. I wish Eotech would offer more models in green, and introduce some goddamn shake-awake feature.
Battery life and shake awake are their downfalls. The reticles are top notch. Battery life sucks but I always keep spares so it's not a dealbreaker for me. I've not seen or heard of Eotechs having issues in many many years. Early on they had that bouncing reticle issue on some, and the glass delamination.Shake awake is a must for me.

I'm leaning Aimpoint because they're the ones guys who need them to work every time, all the time use.Battery life and shake awake are their downfalls. The reticles are top notch.

I may be coming into a new job and a nice bump in salary, so if I get it i'll treat myself to a T2 Micro, even though I just bitched about it two days ago.
I am leaning to 507C on a pistol over and RMR and nice to hear a good endorsement for the model! Thanks!I do well with red or green. All my shotguns and carbines are red, all my handguns are green.

I’ve made that same decision multiple times. Shake awake and the reticle seal the deal for me.I am leaning to 507C on a pistol over and RMR and nice to hear a good endorsement for the model! Thanks!
