What would you buy?
I am looking at buying a Red Dot, either a Eotech 517, 553, XPS2-2 or Aimpoint Pro. Or would you buy a Glock 23? Just a question

I don't have night vision to go with it so I would choose the Eotech 517. Plus I like being able to use any AA batteries I can find it in which can be had anywhere.

Aimpoint Pro
Re: What would you buy?
Aimpoint vs. Eotech is personal preference. I prefer the Eotech and between the one's you mentioned I went with the EXPS2-2. Lovin it!
As far as the Glock, that depends on how you're set with other handguns. Will it be your carry gun? Do you already have a carry gun? How much will you use the Glock versus an RDS?

If you want an optic, it'll be a purchase of preference depending on whether you like the sight picture/reticle of the Aimpoint or Eotech better. Not a fan of .40S&W so I wouldn't buy a 23 (much rather have a 19). Do you need a handgun more than an RDS?

I have a Shield, XDm 9, and a Sig P229 it would be my 2nd .40C-dub wrote:Aimpoint vs. Eotech is personal preference. I prefer the Eotech and between the one's you mentioned I went with the EXPS2-2. Lovin it!

Cool. With all those, if it were me, I would go for the RDS. Which one is up to you.gguess66 wrote:I have a Shield, XDm 9, and a Sig P229 it would be my 2nd .40C-dub wrote:Aimpoint vs. Eotech is personal preference.

Agreed. I'd get a good RDS.
