Eotech getting sued?

[vossman]

Been trying to call customer support all day, voicemail each time. I'll keep trying.

I sent my email to them Saturday and just got my e-mail response today saying I'm approved:

Your refund request has been received and approved. Please print and enclose this email with your optic and return it to: EOTech Refunds, 1201 E Ellsworth Rd, Ann Arbor, MI 48108. EOTech will refund the purchase price plus $15 shipping cost as soon as possible.

Thank you,
Xavier Brown

I will be sending it back certified mail, as soon as I can get near the inside of a post office.

I am considering sending mine in but then I'd need to find a use for my LaRue mount. Maybe I will just put the whole unit on my 15-22.

We were told a couple weeks ago that a tactical team deployment somewhere out east had an officer fire one round accurately, then a second follow-on shot went 8" off target, even though the officer insisted he was on target. Subsequent investigation revealed a reticle drift after the first shot. In light of this and the recent lawsuits by the DoD, our agency and the others within our county have put out new policy that tactical teams are restrained from using EOTech weapon sights, and all rifles that are personally owned for duty use are restricted from having an EOTech on them.

ETA: I've had an EOTech for personal use since 2010 and have yet to have an issue with it. Just means I have to shell out more $$ to put an optic on my duty rifle.

Ditto. Will be replacing with Aimpoints.

I sent my info in last night.

I noticed on their website FAQ section that it now says that if you sight in at a warm temp and then shoot in a colder temp, you need to re-zero your sight and that the thermal shift gets worse the more the temp gradient from the temp of the original zero. I just can't imagine a scenario where that would be acceptable to anyone. Even a twice a year plinker.

I think I'm going to try the Aimpoint T-2.

If it ain't broke, don't fit it... Right? I have yet to lose accuracy with it, and I don't think mine is an affected model, so I'm going to keep it on my non-duty rifle and have a nice $400 optic on it for when I go to the range. Win-win.

Makes me feel better about my decision to go with an Aimpoint Pro.

...but I hate to see it when something goes sideways like this.
