I wasn't sure which way they went on. I turned them around. Thanks!

That is a nice gun though. My cheap $70 sight took a shit at the range only after 300 rounds. Just purchased a vortex sight. I'll give the evaluation as soon as i take it to the range.

I've had my vortex on .308 and .50bmg... Takes a licking and keeps on ticking

I guess you noticed their warrantee.

Eotech has been sued by DOD, and has admitted their sights have a thermal induced zeroing issue.

http://denver.cbslocal.com/2016/01/1...ty-gun-sights/

Eotech has stated they will refund all purchases. This can be done via RMA page. I've submitted mine today, will wait and see.

My wife doesn't like shooting my double stack Beretta 9mm and wanted another 9mm to shoot. So I got this Rock Island Armory 1911 A1 MS Tactical. Haven't shot it yet but she like the single stack grip better.
