Great quality, great price! - DI Optical EG1 Red Dot Sight

I will admit I was a bit skeptical to pay around $400 for an optic that was produced by a company I knew little about. But, with diligent research I came to the conclusion that for the price I couldn't really lose. I will say that is the case, I didn't lose, but one aspect I haven't liked is the crispness of the dot its' self. It seems to blur a tad bit as you increase the intensity of the dot but not enough to distort or obscure anything other than the dot, in low settings though it's phenomenal. Now this could be simply my perception or a variable that was unaccounted for when I used the red dot. Another negative, is the weight and footprint the optic has on my rifle, not enough for me to return it or use something else but just a cumbersome feature to the optic. Now with that said, the size of the optic may be the best quality to its' self. The size of the glass along with the endless eye relief is wonderful! At times I seem to forget that I'm looking through the optic, I don't find myself going cross eyed during continuous use. As far as the accuracy and zero out the factory, I'ld say it's pretty on par with mainstream brands, I had very little adjustments to make. The optic also seems to be very durable other than the coating on the thumb screw which I foresee a bit of that wearing later down the road. All in all I would say it's a top tier red dot sight for a couple hundred dollars less.
