Description
Overview
The EOTECH 512 Holographic Weapon Sight is a proven optic for defensive shooting and duty use. It combines a clear 68 MOA ring with a 1 MOA dot to support fast target acquisition at close range and precise hold points at distance. The sight uses true holographic technology to create a reticle that appears on the target plane. This means the aiming point stays consistent even if your eye moves behind the optic. The 512 balances rugged performance with simple controls that work with gloves or under stress.
What It Does
The 512 gives you a large field of view with a bold ring for instinctive aiming. When the situation demands quick hits inside 50 yards, the 68 MOA ring gives a broad reference point that keeps your eyes on the threat, not the glass. If you need finer precision at distance, the central 1 MOA dot lets you hold exactly where you want impact. Built to handle recoil and harsh environments, the 512 stays on zero and keeps the reticle visible in bright daylight or low light.

FAQ
Can this sight be used with night vision?
Yes. When set at the lower brightness levels it remains visible without overwhelming night optics.
How does the holographic reticle compare to standard LED dots?
Holographic reticles retain proper alignment even when your eye shifts. This keeps the point of aim accurate through dynamic movement.
Is the 512 compatible with magnifiers?
Yes. The design allows pairing with magnifiers that maintain eye relief and sight picture.
What type of batteries does it use?
It uses one readily available battery that you can replace in the field.
Does it hold zero under recoil?
The robust construction ensures the optic stays on zero with repeated firing.
Is the sight waterproof?
The sealed housing handles wet conditions without fogging or water intrusion.
