I went to the Eagle Arms show in Oaks, PA today. I was determined to find some parts for my new AR, and if I found a good deal on an optic I would buy it. The 512 was my top option, and saw many from 400 to 450. I haggled one vendor down to 385. Just curious, did I get a good deal?

Is anyone else running the 512, and how do you like them? Any issues? Thanks

Im not 100% positive, but i believe their might have been a recall on the battery door, in response to the complaints about flickering reticles.

+1, I remember reading something like that

I knew I heard that somewhere! This model was inspected 02/2012 according to the sticker on the case, so I hope it was fixed. Thanks!

No problem at all. For what its worth, i think you got a good deal, I love my eotech. They make a great product, and I seem to prefer the small center dot and circle style reticle.

Even still, its a like a 5 dollar fix if it happens, you just replace the battery grommet.

That's what I read, that it's a simple fix. I would hope one that was built as recently as mine has the newest parts, because they've known about the recall for longer than two months, so well see. Taking it to the range on Saturday to see how I like it.
