Everybody welcome to prepper junkie. Today we have an EOTech to go over this, that you’ll take 5, 1 2, a 65, ok, so let’s go ahead and unbox. This here comes in a typical gonna, be a tech box almost got a nice tape, logo there nice little plastic case comes with a sticker and just something: ok, your typical warrant in full and things like that, and then we have the EOTech sight itself comes with an allen wrench. It comes with this piece here and I’ll go over that a second ok.

So this is, as I said, the five one two. This is the kin of the older model. This does use double-a batteries and from from here it’s kind of like. If you look at this part, you know it’s kind of like the typical geotech right and obviously it just was a little different because as I say, it doesn’t use the one two three batteries that go across here. It uses the blades that go this way. Okay, won’t open this in a sec and go over it. So it’s got the windows in elevation for for siding in and then this is the new yo tech logo.

So if you go back a couple of years, if you see the old leo tech logo, which I’ll roll in the picture here and that’s the old version just so you know this is a new version, so they fix some of the issues that the ill Tech’s have had with these newer versions. Now, because this isn’t this isn’t the like the exps. This has the buttons on the back for the brightness settings so to switch it on you just press up or down. If you press down, especially some for four hours, if you press the UP button, it will switch on for eight hours and it will automatically switch off, which is a really nice feature.

Not some people don’t like it, because you know they want to always on the battery lives, and these aren’t great compared to like an end point or something you’re. Both I was in ours what she made, which isn’t too bad, and it’s really helped because you do have the auto shutoff now I’ve personally incurred in the range many times and keep forget to switch my optics off. It just happens so the nice thing for me is you know this will automatically switch off and save my battery, which is really nice and, as I say, you’ll get about a thousand hours with lithium batteries, mm-hmm double-a batteries, okay and then obviously we have the field of the window here and it’s a large field of view with these with all your Tech’s, it’s one of the big things that people love about geo text is a huge field of view.

Now, I realize you know if you’re shorting shooting both eyes open, it shouldn’t really matter right, but some people do like the fact this has such a massive window, myself included and also while we’re here, you’ll notice that there is a gap here going around in the inside. So basically this is the optic, and then this is like a protective shell to stop em from hitting it like impacts on this. So it’s it’s separated from this this body here to protect it, which is really smart, move along to the side.

So obviously this is the mounting system. Here, isn’t a QD mount and it is just a typical Picatinny rail mount here, gonna Picatinny and you when it comes. It can have this piece in here and you an allen key to put it in and tighten it, which is nice because it’s flush which is which is great, but for me, I want this piece and yes, it does stick out a little bit, but this your fact that I can, if I’m in the field or I, don’t know wherever’s happen. If it goes down, you know, I can you know possibly under or just take a coin or screwdriver and just and take this off a lot easier than say having an allen key to take it off so I do use that piece as my preference go to the battery compartment here, you have this lever, you simply pull that up and this slides out, okay and, as I said it does use.

It comes with energizer batteries. Double-A batteries you can put lithium’s in here as I said in the last bath, I was nervous and it has a submersible ‘ti off about ten feet. So it’s not the greatest depth but I’m personally, not gonna go scuba diving with my optic, so it won’t affect most people rubber seal here so this year. This part here is actually rubberized, which is really which is really nice, obvious. It’s going to help keep protected. So when you slip in your battery compartment here and when you push this lever down, it pushes the plastic against that.

So it seals it. That’s how it’s sealing sealing that compartment up so I’ve. Let’s have a look at this now. One of the downsides I. Think slight. Downside is kind of the length of this they’re, not super short. This is a exps 2-0, so it looks a little bigger because it has a QD mount. But if you look here, you can see it’s probably another inch and a half longer and so cosmetically I think people are like. Oh, it doesn’t look as good as the exp s and stuff like that.

But I’m telling you when your eyes behind this, you don’t obviously notice the length. However, let’s look at it on a rifle um, so you can see here how much space this would realistically take up. So if you put it on here, it’s going to take up the majority of the rail and you’re gonna put in so I’ve. Had it on here before and I put it pretty far back into the point. Where was hard for me to touch the buttons, because my mbus sights were in the way, so I had to move up just a little bit so you’re gonna talk about putting on there, so it’s gonna be hard to put a magnifier behind one of these two.

Unless you want your optic really far forward now, I do have the EOTech magnifier here my pistol. This is a tech magnifier and if I add that on there I mean it’s definitely doable, that’s one one fully even complete rail. There is no space out there for anything that I put that on. So obviously you know you can. It looks like you can fit it if you want to you’re just going to take up all your real space on a pistol again, it’s definitely doable, obviously with the buttons, but the buttons being here when this is on.

You gonna, have to flip the magnifier to the site to activate the buttons up or down, but yeah definitely doable. So there you go, so you can add it to it with the magnifier. If you wish- and obviously this does have. Obviously the EOTech done’ up – 65 MOA ring with the one MOA it’s absolutely by far my favorite reticle BarNone, there’s nothing I think comes close to the EOTech, reticle and I realize people say obviously Hollow Sun. It’s copied the radical from the EOTech, but with with eel tech, this is the you know at hall.

So this is the holographic website website holographic sight. So the nice thing with this is you know wherever you move your head back here, the the holographic sight is gonna, it’s gonna move and it’s just gonna stay exactly what’s supposed to so, if you’re shooting from awkward shooting positions, no matter where that site is on it’ll hit, and that’s not that so it’s like parallax free things like that and that’s not what you’re getting with some of these other optics eel tech does have a bit of a negative past and when they get caught lying about some of the stuff and it and it seems like they’re taking care of most of it, they’re still amazing optics special forces.

You know they went and did trials for to determine what object to go with again and you’ll. Take actually one one one again with the fixes they did. No I, don’t don’t know, believed if I don’t believe the five one two is. What they use is probably something more something like the exps or something like that: mmm. So weight-wise, let’s check this uh. This is the exp s2 with the QD map. So it’s gonna weigh a little more and it does have the battery in it and it weighs in 11 1 ounces, and then we have the EOTech five one, two with the double A batteries and it weighs in at eleven point four hours.

There’s only a couple of couple ounces really some really small difference in weight, but the size difference, obviously is what people will notice the most I personally as I say I, like both of these I, like the size of this one better, but I, really like the fact that this one takes double-a batteries. So if I ever need, you know they’re, just easy I think they would be easier to come by what did one cr123 buyers are really easy to come by, but double a’s are obviously extremely easy to come by and that’s why I really like this.

So alright. I think that pretty much covers everything if you guys have any any questions, any comments, as always I’m always happy to help wherever I can I just ask them below I’ll, put a link in the description also to these you’re, going to pick them up. Roughly. You know you can pick up at three five or so sometimes you’ll catch a low sale. Maybe a little less it’d been a great size to say. I have had two on I have gone, shooting with it. No issues at all for me exist, go with a 10 year, warranty from eel tech.

Also, if you have any issues that is it all right. Folks really appreciate you following along have a great day.

For varmint hunting, home defense or competition being able to get quickly on target and see more of the surrounding area is an advantage. That is why so many law enforcement agencies trust the EOTech holographic weapon sight to give them fast target acquisition and a better view of their surroundings. The adjustable brightness of the EOTech reticle, combined with the smallest red dot on the market, 1 MOA centered inside of an aiming ring, gets you quickly on target.

This configuration lets. You rapidly engage targets in multiple ranges. Without adjusting elevation for standard 5 56, the sight is on target at 50 yards or 200 yards and by using the bottom of the outer ring. You are good to go for close-up targets at 7 yards, the EOTech 512 HW s lets you shoot with both eyes open without tunnel vision.

It uses commonly available double a alkaline or lithium batteries, its rugged waterproof down to 10 feet and it features simple easy access controls for reaching out even farther the g-33 magnifier stoves out of the way until needed and quickly pivots into place, because the HW s is holographic, the size of the aiming dot. Doesn’t increase when viewed through the magnifier? This means that, while the aiming ring and the target size increase, the aiming dot will not providing a more precise and accurate shot at the target, a quick-detach mount with a shift to side base.

Let you quickly attach and detach the magnifier from your accessory rail, but also lets the magnifier pivot out of the way for close and medium range, shooting for long-range, shooting the magnifier rapidly shifts into position to offer 3 times magnification. A specially designed hinge, firmly locks the magnifier in place when in use and when not needed, just firmly shift the magnifier into whichever position is desired.

There are no switches, levers or buttons to actuate, and the g-33 has more than just an innovative mount. The g-33 provides clear, multi coated glass lenses for excellent light, gathering and undistorted magnification of your target. A rugged rubberized coating on the housing protects it from scrapes and gouges, and the lens coatings protect from scratches and fogging.

The ample 2 2 inches of eye relief, make aiming natural and allow shooting, with both eyes, open all told the EOTech 512 and g-33 magnifier at around 22 ounces of weight to your rifle and take up minimal real estate on your accessory rail there easy and natural to use and give you a significant advantage to quickly get and stay on target.

No matter. The range upgrade your arsenal and check out the EOTech, 512 holographic weapon sight and the g-33 magnifier at your local Sportsman’s, Warehouse store or online at.
