I was wondering if anyone on this forum has or has used the G&P EOTECH 551 holographic sight. I was going to buy off of evike or a cheaper HK dealer. I have heard all good reviews on the sites but want some local MI input also.
Thanks for your help.

From what I understand G&P is pretty much the TM of optics. The only thing I can think of that is better as far as knock-offs is Hurricane.

I don't mean to derail the thread but starting a new one would be pointless, anyone know of a stateside retailer that would carry a Hurricane or G&P 553 in black?

Dahm, didn't yours wash out horribly in just a little sun?

Dahm I hope your talking about the OP.
I asked where you could get a 553 stateside, not how Ub3r L337 it was.

No, I think he means that the reticule was difficult to see in sunlight, or 'washed-out' as it were.

Yeah, in the sun the reticle isn't bright enough and it "washes out", meaning it's just really hard to see the reticle.

Ok, yeah I remember the ACM replica eotechs, never really heard a great review, but I have heard mostly good about the G&P

I've got two ACM EOTech's, and they both work like champs, no wash out or anything.
