Please post any discussion in this thread.
Great write up TB. All RDS have pros and cons, the added pictures shown gives the reader an opportunity to actually see the RDS in use.

I agree with TB. I've tried all of the EOTech reticles and I keep reverting back to the original one (1MOA center dot with 65MOA outer ghost ring). The multi-dot versions get annoying after a while (distracting). If you use a magnifier, it isn't as bad, but then you realize that the distances of the BDC is pretty useless for civilian/LE use. Who is going to be shooting targets at 500+ yards with a red dot?
As far as the "T" marking at the bottom of the reticle, the original reticle does the same thing. I found a great BUIS that actually goes hand in hand with the EOTech reticle. The ARMS 71 or any BUIS with the notch on top is also designed as a point of aim at 7 yards, so it lines up perfectly with the bottom of the ghost ring.
I've always been a huge fan of EOTechs until my last one crapped out on me at the range. Other than that, I personally believe there is nothing faster for CQB.

I agree with you on the second dot. The large field of view through an EOTech is one of the reasons it's desirable for CQB. In my opinion, a cluttered reticle detracts from that.
