Odd Man Out

Pooling Honestly you are coming off as a whiney little bitch with a touch of mil envy ( the last about the envy was a baseless jab but what the hey...). Nobody said that mil people are gods -- they just at one point wrote a check to the country they serve up to and including their lives and by the way protect your right to whine... So there's that. Whine on ignorance, whine on...

Never served, huh?

I advise investing in tin foil... P.S. Rhodes, thanks for the compliment of adapting my witty repartee when confronted with the lack of one's own --I'm always here to help

If the sights shift up to 20-30 moa, well, I'd rather throw mine away than using it in a life and death situation and it failing to be accurate...

HB Just as a point of interest; what's with the "Eoteck"? Was it marked that way or are you just being a different homo sapien???

Oh God yes, I do trust Snowden... Trail of sarcastic clue crumbs left... Tinfoil and grips! Aisle left! get some

"promptly" ??? days? Weeks? also do you know the amount he got? Inquiring minds want to know...

Best thing is to spend time reading the vast info on this learned forum -- it will serve you well. Welcome to the madness...

Good on ya mate -- congratulations! I know that when I found "the one" that could put up with me and in fact love me that I could never let her go. A good wife is a blessing indeed.

an update -- I sent an email to ask the status. I got this as a reply: "Thank you for contacting EOTech. We are working on refunds and will process them as soon as possible." ...well there's that...

Also, coming from the Army background -- no self respecting sergeant would allow a person to call them "sarge". It is indeed slang and a mark of disrespect. Salty, be sure to address your D.I. as "sarge" when you get to basic -- that should be fun...

Some disquieting news... I decided to write back to Eotech to see what is happening -- an update. I replied to the original message I got that approved the refund and return... Here's what I got back: Automatic reply: Return Authorization Request: XXXXXXXXXXX Thank you for contacting Eotech, This is no longer an active email please respond to support.eotech@L-3COM.COM Hope I am not being paranoid

Agreed

The Wounded Warriors mismanagement has been know for a while now -- there are many orgs that do a much better job.

Okay Put the eotecH 552 in the mail to them on Tuesday the 15th at 10:47AM with tracking. Just checked and it was delivered on Thursday the 17th at 12:52PM. Now the wait really begins What's next???

So far I was not asked (yet) about how much I paid -- if they do I will say $529.00, the average going price today. I figure that's fair seeing they may have put me and my loved ones lives in danger...

I like it -- especially if they ARE as defective as stated... Here muzzie muzzie muzzie...

Along with Edward Snowden and a whole bunch of other people that need their daily intake of lead increased dramatically...

Got a response to my return authorization request within 12 hours! Here is what the email said: "Your refund request has been received and approved. Please print and enclose this email with your optic and return it to: EOTech Refunds, 1201 E Ellsworth Rd, Ann Arbor, MI 48108. EOTech will refund the purchase price plus $15 shipping cost as soon as possible. Thank you, Xavier Brown Customer Service EOTech an L-3 Communications Company Additionally inquirys to: support.eotech@l-3com.com" In the space where it asks for Failure Description I wrote: "Sight changes

If the charge of treason is going to be thrown down (I know, only desertion but one can hope) then I know of a whole bunch that should be charged...

Also waiting for a response from Eotech -- filled out the form yesterday. Going to go for a Hartman MH-1 when they come out. A very decent bit of kit. Check it out:

Gary No butt hurt here, just surprised how childish you are acting -- somehow I've succeeded in twisting your knickers. If it stimulates you to call people names, then by all means go for it but it does not show you to be very mature -- and by your avatar it seems that that is an impression that you wish to foster...

Nope Gary, I have not. Thanks for the mini lesson. Learned a lot. Still not interested though, the 1911's capacity has never held my attention. Also, why the hate brother? You need to stand on someone to feel taller???

I would not get too excited about it -- you might end up with the 1911 I was issued back in '78! What a piece of crap -- I was sure it was from WWII. It rattled it was so loose.

***WARNING CHRISTIANITY STUFF AHEAD -- AVOID IF PANTY'S BECOME EASILY BUNCHED*** Not to go off on a tangent (like THAT never happens here...) But I'm reading Billy Graham's last book -- "Where I Am, heaven, eternity and our life beyond". I figure if anyone on this earth has an inkling of what awaits us it will be Billy who has studied this stuff his whole life. He has posited that "hell" will be the complete separation from God for eternity. Remember that ALL will be judged so ALL will come to know the reality of God. Now imagine knowing about God but being separated and in darkness f
