I have a POF 416 that has an Eotech mounted on it and i really like the setup. Before choosing the Eotech, i did try the ACOG with 4x but it was just for close up situations. I just didnt either like it or get the hang of it. The Etotech seemed easier for close up usage.
However, i do see its downside for longer rage applications. I was searching online to see if there is anyway that the Etotech's image can be magnified and i came across a couple of options that seem to mount before the Eotech. One is a 3x for ~$400 and a 4x for ~$800. I thought that was insane. Are there any other options to quickly magnify the red dot so it can be flipped to the side when not needed and so forth that would be less expensive? All inputs appreciated.
