recommendations on an Eotech 3x magnifier flip-mount?

[Quinc]

I currently have an Eotech branded flip-mount that will no longer hold it's 0 so after about 40rds my reticle is in the top right corner. I have tried to email Eotech and the company that made the mount and they wont fix it. So I am looking for something to replace it that is preferably under 100$. Any suggestions?

magnifier and/or mount have nothing to do with holding zero... the mag and mount won't affect zero.

ETA: sounds like you're saying the mag wont flip all the way back to it's original seat?... but the RDS should still be zero'd...

Good point, I said that wrong. It does not lose 0, it just moves the reticle to the top right corner. There are two little screws on the side of the mount that you can adjust to bring it back to center, but after another 40 or so rounds its back to the top corner. Probably going to try some locktite.

Wow, I'm surprised EOTech wouldn't fix it for you. What model sight do you have? Is it a lower 1/3rd or absolute?

OT but kind of related:

Chase,

I just returned an OPMOD EXPS2-0 as well. It would not hold zero and I was getting 5" groups at 25 yards!!! Put back my T1 and shots were back to less than 1" groups.

I really like the reticle on the EoTech's but that kind of turned me off as I've never had this issue with my Aimpoints.

Anyway, I am exhanging it for a standard EXPS 2-0 to see if maybe it was just that batch/lot. I hope EoTech isn't having QC issues!
