Here in Iraq, the Aimpoint wins the popularity contest.
The EOtech reticle is just too big and busy. It's a LOT easier and quicker to drop a dot on a guy, than trying to see him past all that circle and slash....especially with NVG's.
While writing this, I noticed my Aimpoint was still on from two weeks ago (firefight outside AL Kut). No whoop, just turned it off. With a 50,000 hour running battery life, I'm not too worried about it.
