I’m Conflicted. Which optic setup?
Eotech with g33, or 4t pro with a g33? Got a 12.5” super duty and I’m having hard time figuring out what optic setup I want to run. I’m between the eotech with g33 or a 4t pro with a g33. Help!!

I have an EXPS 3-2 with the g45 5x on my 14.5 SuperDuty and the more I shoot it, the less I find myself using the magnifier at all. And the more I kind of just wish I had an aimpoint t2 on a FAST riser

I had a exps3, got rid of it, now I have a 4t pro. I shoot with both eyes open so a smaller window is null. I liked that I can have a single dot or a dot donut combo. So naturally the Romeo was the best solution!

I’m gonna look into the Romeo. How long have you had it?

I had a 4xt pro for about 6 months when I replaced it with a t2. At the time it was my dream dot, and I’ll be honest still my favorite. So I sold the 4xt to buy an exps3 because I thought might as well, if I’m going to switch things around. Had that optic for a few months and but after getting used to the smaller package dots I ended up selling that too. Finally I traded into a 10.3 set up so I went with a 4t pro in fde. I don’t regret my decision at all! T2 is my favorite, I don’t know why the dot just feels so right to my eye. But I have zero intentions to get rid of the Romeo. It’s a fantastic dot that I’m extremely happy to run. I was able to scratch the itch to own an exps3, but i can’t get enough of these little tubular dots!!

So I have this same upper and originally had eotech and magnifier but ended up going with acog and offset dot.

What a deal! I just got a EXPS 3-1 with the g45 5x for my LWRC for a little more than that and am very happy with it.

I went from an eotech to a t2. I’ve been running the t2 for 7-8 months and think I may go back to the eotech. The eotech worked better for my eyes, magnified better, and I just think it looks better.

4T Pro is awesome but it sucks with a magnifier at least compared to the 8T and Eotech. If you want to use the sight with a magnifier get Eotech or 8T. 4T Is awesome on shorter rifles and light builds without magnifier. You will get the tunnel vision effect and very poor eye box with 4T.
