Fake Chinese EOTech

[Nyterayven]

The real eotech has some parallax at close ranges as well. Plenty of youtube vids to document this fact.

[DerEisdieler]

if a cheap eotech clone like this one has this little parallax, the 80 euro version i'm gonna buy together with an airsoft m4 will be good enough, i guess. :) thx for the vid

[barrel0fagun]

@DerEisdieler i wouldn't call it "little", cause the distance is less than 10 meters. They used cheap LED instead of laser that's why parallax is so huge.

[DerEisdieler]

@barrel0fagun for real firearms, i agree. but since the "effective" range of airsoft guns is around a maximum of 40 meters i suppose one can live with this amount of parallax. especially since it is a game and there are no lives on the line. :) and who would buy a real eotech for an airsoft gun? would be cool but also nuts. :)

@phantomshtter What does a chinese copy of a holographic sight have to do will CoD kids....?

[LILFOXRACER]

atleast no ghosting affect..



[phantomshtter]

Isn't it amazing how all these COD kids know more about firearms and firearms accessories that us in the REAL shooting community?  These kids have been doing their homework! ;) LMAO

[itswillyxD]

even thought its fake it passes the parallax test lol

[barrel0fagun]

@itswillyxD no it does not. Read dafunkmonster's comment.

[l85a1rt4]

Polish Army use eotech's with htat reticule 

[turboturtle22]

def not like the real thing. the dot moves when you move. real one dont move

[barrel0fagun]

@turboturtle22 that's what they call parallax

[dafunkmonster]

@turboturtle22 You're a tard. The whole point of a holographic is that the reticle stays on the target regardless of where your eye is. So, in this respect, this fake chinese knockoff is actually functioning like a holographic sight is supposed to.

However, it does it poorly...and then there's the whole problem with the Chinese not respecting intellectual property rights.

[1MaskedMexican]

@turboturtle22 .Thats how the holo sight really looks dumbass.

[MrSpacecow101]

I dont care if its fake I just want one

[binbinjokez]

can u post a link ?

[barrel0fagun]

@binbinjokez I bought it at dealextreme, but now they remove it due to Eotech claim.

[MrZeroCelcius]

Ok. So... I have to ask... whats a parallax? I'm not new to the world of firearms but I dont know a great deal about Holographic Sights apparently.

[barrel0fagun]

@MrZeroCelcius it's not about firearms, it's about optics)

[barrel0fagun]

@MrZeroCelcius search wiki "Parallax"

[MrZeroCelcius]

@barrel0fagun I did, thank you. I understand now. Yeah, that was too much to briefly explain here. Makes sense though.

[turboturtle22]

@MrZeroCelcius its the glare.

[plechatam]

@turboturtle22 nothing to do with glare.

[sparta139]

@MrZeroCelcius It's when the reticle moves when you move your head. That can affect your aiming.

[chaff5]

Price and from what vendors?

[barrel0fagun]

@chaff5 30 bucks, "Noname, Ltd." %)

[RuMbOmRi]

Man nice holo! Can you u give the brand name and model?

[barrel0fagun]

@RuMbOmRi see update

[TORNxBigxBro]

please put name of the model and brand name

[AirsoftRaccoon]

What looks better on an m4 the 551 or the 552 ???!?!?! (holosight)

[ELITEHAMSTER123]

@AirsoftRaccoon theres no actual difference. They are the same. The key difference between models is what kind of batteries they use. I know from memory the 552 uses AA batteries, not sure about the 551. I also know in the past two years, EO Tech introduced two new reticles, one pre-calibated for 5.56 and some other one, I cant remember.

[sweetswantonbombs]

@ELITEHAMSTER123 except the slight parallax you can see with this. a true eotech has virtually no parallax

[ELITEHAMSTER123]

@sweetswantonbombs I didnt see that, good eyes. Personally though, I have been straying from non-magnified optics recently. Really past 150 yards, most red dots obscure the critical areas on a target. I used to have a red dot with a scope offset to the side, but now I may just switch that.

[barrel0fagun]

@AirsoftRaccoon both look cool)

[ferociousmark]

thought u were moving the holo sight not the camera i laughed coz i thought it got a face detection lol

[bbass47]

What Brand?

[mordicai6]

@bbass47 really?

[barrel0fagun]

@bbass47 "Noname, Ltd" :)

[AGPELASTE]

where can i buy that one?

[DsBt256]

Almost as good as those expensive Eotech's

[jebaki]

@DsBt256 for air soft - you bet!

For fighting for your life in a real gun fight - NOO!!!
