How to Get a Great Price on the EOTech 557 Holographic Weapons Sight
The EOTech 557 holographic sight is one of the most sought after optical sights for rifles and other small arms today. The best place to buy this product is from a dealer that specializes in weapons accessories and moves lots of product so you can get the best price and have access to the most stock – more info on that at the bottom of this article. The Holographic Weapons Sight (HWS) was originally designed for the commercial market, and was adopted by the military a few years later. It has proven its worth in the field; many of the new features in this sight were based on recommendations from people who use it daily.
The design and use of the holographic weapons sight is different from traditional tube sights. It is a smaller version of the heads-up display used fighter jets, and is used similarly. The operator of the rifle is able to keep both eyes open and does not have to have their eyes specifically in line with the sight, and the holographic laser target indicator will stay on the target no matter where the operator’s head moves. This allows for improved situational awareness and consequently effectiveness.
The adjustment buttons for the sight have been relocated from the back to the side. This change, even though it seems minor, is just as helpful as the battery compartment redesign. The previous sight users had to leave a gap between the buttons on the back and any additional rail mounted optics. With the new design the additional optics can be flush with the holographic weapon sight. This allows for more customized mountings on the rail.
A unique feature of the EOTech 557 is that it is specifically optimized to work on the AR-15 and M4 carbine rifles. It can actually show four aiming points concurrently on the optics, which are specifically tuned to the ballistics of the .223 rifle round. If aiming at a target up close, the user would use the upper dot. If aiming at a target at about 600 yards, the lower dot would be used. This feature by itself will increase the accuracy of shooting for any user of this sight.
The EOTech 550 models of the holographic weapon sights are night vision equipment compatible. A special night vision setting drops the brightness of the reticule light, allowing the shooter to use the sight with any version of night vision equipment. There are 10 different levels of the night vision setting to improve usability in different conditions. Because the military and law enforcement often operate in low light conditions, this is a very useful feature that enhances the effectiveness of the night vision they already have.
The EOTech 557 holographic weapons sight is truly an outstanding and state-of-the-art product, proven in law enforcement and in the field. It has many new features based on the feedback from users of earlier versions of the product, making it the most advanced version of this type of sight available.
